About Alicia
Alicia Collins Wong is an Ohio LPCC with nine years of experience in mental health care. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, depression, ADHD, addictions, relationship and intimacy concerns, grief, sleep problems, self-esteem, bipolar symptoms, and coping with life changes. Alicia also addresses issues related to compassion fatigue, parenting, and challenges connected to adoption and foster care.
Alicia takes a straightforward approach in sessions. She avoids a single method and instead listens first to understand each person's priorities. Then she uses techniques from cognitive behavioral work and dialectical behavior methods alongside attachment-focused ideas to shape practical steps people can try between meetings.
Sessions emphasize clear skills and real-life practice. That can mean breaking down anxious moments into manageable parts, building small experiments to test fears, or practicing emotion regulation skills for intense states. She also helps people reflect on how early relationships continue to affect current patterns and choices.
People who prefer direct, skills-based support often find this approach useful. Alicia blends problem-solving with attention to relationship patterns so clients can develop better ways of responding under stress. She also supports work on identity and sexuality concerns within that framework.
Her work balances active tools with time to talk through difficult memories or current stresses. For anyone considering therapy for social anxiety or related phobias, she offers practical ways to notice avoidance, try new behaviors, and track small gains over time.
How her approaches translate to online work
Alicia uses cognitive behavioral therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and test them with practical experiments. CBT often focuses on breaking anxious patterns into small, manageable steps and building new habits through repeated practice.She also draws on attachment-based ideas to look at patterns that come from early relationships. That work helps people notice how those patterns shape current fears, avoidance, and relationship strategies. Combining these views allows focus on both skills and the stories people tell about themselves.
Finding the right approach is part of the early sessions. She works together with clients to choose techniques that match their goals, comfort level, and everyday life. That collaborative process can mean trying a few tools and then keeping what helps most.
Confirm the therapist's current session options before booking so you know which formats are offered. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, provide shorter check-ins when needed, or allow sessions without travel. Therapists who offer video can use screen tools for worksheets, while phone sessions can be useful when a quieter moment or lower bandwidth is needed.
