About Alicia
Alicia Collins Wong is an LPCC practicing in Ohio with nine years of experience in mental health. She focuses on helping people navigate stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, depression, ADHD, addictions, and related concerns. Alicia takes a straightforward, calm approach so conversations feel manageable even on a tough day.
She meets each person where they are and avoids a one-size-fits-all plan. Sessions center on clear goals and practical steps that fit a person’s life. Clients can expect a mix of talking, skill-building, and reflection rather than only homework or only talk.
Alicia draws on approaches like cognitive behavioral work and dialectical strategies to address intense emotions and unhelpful thinking. She also uses attachment-based ideas to look at patterns in relationships and how early hurts can show up now. Mindfulness techniques are used to help manage stress and ground attention in the moment.
Her experience includes work with grief, intimacy-related issues, parenting concerns, self-esteem struggles, and compassion fatigue. Alicia also notes additional focus areas such as abandonment, adoption and foster care, attachment issues, autism and Asperger Syndrome, and body image concerns. This range informs flexible plans tailored to each person’s needs.
Conversations start with a short assessment and a collaborative plan. The emphasis is on practical tools you can use between sessions and on pacing the work so it feels doable. The goal is steady progress toward clearer thinking and better day-to-day coping.
How Alicia’s Approaches Translate to Online Work
Alicia uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different actions. That work often focuses on practical steps to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and shift patterns that cause problems. She also uses dialectical behavior strategies to teach emotion regulation, distress-tolerance, and interpersonal skills. Those tools aim to reduce intense reactions and improve daily functioning.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Alicia will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts strategies over time, checking in about what helps and what should change so the plan stays useful.
If you are considering online work, confirm the available session formats before booking since the biography does not specify them. Many people find remote sessions easier to fit into a busy schedule, jump between work and home tasks, or have shorter check-ins when needed. Online meetings can also make it simpler to practice skills in real-world settings between sessions. A therapist will help you decide how to shape sessions so they fit your routine and goals.
