About Alicia
Alicia Jones is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with eleven years of experience in clinical and school settings. She works across a wide range of concerns and aims to meet people where they are. Her style is straightforward and focused on building skills that help day-to-day life.
She has worked in nonprofit programs, supervising juvenile drug court services and outpatient substance use counseling. That work included helping teens and parents develop coping skills for substance issues and co-occurring disorders.
Background and approach
More recently she has provided school counseling in middle and high schools, supporting students with anxiety, depression, trauma, and social skills. Alicia uses a client-centered, strengths-based approach. She emphasizes goal setting and step-by-step plans so problems feel more manageable.
Sessions often include practical tools and skill practice rather than long explanations. Parents will find she addresses common family and parenting strains alongside related issues like attachment, blended family challenges, and adoption and foster care concerns. She also supports people facing grief, compassion fatigue, career stress, and mood or impulse-related struggles.
Her toolkit draws from cognitive behavioral methods, dialectical behavior strategies, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused techniques. Those methods are used to teach coping skills, improve communication, and break larger issues into actionable steps. Alicia keeps language plain and focuses on what clients can do between sessions.

Therapeutic approaches and online care
Alicia uses client-centered work to meet people where they are and build on existing strengths. This approach focuses on listening, identifying goals, and supporting each person’s choices to make meaningful change.She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions. CBT helps people spot unhelpful thinking patterns and practice new behaviors to reduce anxiety, depression, or mood symptoms.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. She will work together with each person to choose methods that fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative decision means sessions can change over time as needs evolve.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide practical flexibility. Video calls are useful for full conversations and skill practice, phone sessions can fit a break at work or when bandwidth is limited, and chat or messaging works well for quick check-ins or shorter updates. These options make it easier to keep regular contact and fit therapy into a busy life.
