About Alicia
Alicia Collins Wong is an Ohio LPCC with nine years of clinical experience. She focuses on practical help for people facing anger, trauma, anxiety, depression, stress, and related concerns. Alicia works with individual adults on issues like addiction, relationship struggles, sleep problems, and parenting strain.
She uses straightforward methods rather than labels. Sessions often involve learning concrete skills for managing strong emotions and building healthier routines. She prefers to shape a plan around a person’s goals and current situation instead of following a fixed script.
Alicia draws on approaches that teach specific tools for thinking and feeling differently. That can mean practicing new coping skills, testing small changes between sessions, and noticing patterns that keep problems stuck. The work is practical and skill-focused, with time set aside to try things out in daily life.
Clients commonly bring concerns such as anger, ADHD, trauma and abuse, bipolar mood swings, grief, sex and intimacy questions, or stress from caregiving and burnout. Alicia also supports people navigating adoption and foster-care histories, attachment issues, body-image struggles, chronic illness, and kink-friendly concerns.
She speaks English and sees clients in Ohio under her LPCC credential. Cost varies by location; sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the site.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Alicia uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and test small behavior changes. CBT is practical and goal-oriented, useful for anger, anxiety, and low mood. She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer interpersonal communication. These DBT skills can reduce reactivity and improve daily coping.Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. Alicia treats selecting approaches as collaborative. She will discuss what feels realistic and what skills suit a person’s life, then adjust as progress is made.
Confirm current session options before booking since formats are not specified in the biography. In practice, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time so appointments are simpler to keep. Licensed professionals can use the same skill-teaching and homework-based work online as in person, and Alicia aims to adapt assignments so they work in everyday settings.
