About Alicia
Alicia Long is a Licensed Professional Counselor who helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, and depression. She speaks plainly and focuses on practical next steps so overwhelmed people can feel steadier. Her approach aims to make the first steps feel possible and less daunting.
Alicia creates an open space where people can say what they’re facing without fear of judgment. Sessions prioritize clear goals and usable skills, so worries and painful memories are addressed with tools that can be tried between meetings.
Background and approach
She balances listening with gentle guidance to keep progress moving. Her work draws on client-centered methods that prioritize the person’s own goals. She also uses cognitive behavioral ideas to spot patterns in thoughts and behavior.
Mindfulness techniques are offered to help with stress and intense feelings. Over eight years in practice in Alabama, Alicia has supported people through common and complex concerns. She emphasizes collaboration and practical plans rather than long lists of abstract steps.
Her style is steady, straightforward, and grounded in everyday language. People who choose to work with Alicia can expect sessions that focus on what matters most to them. She helps people build coping skills, manage symptoms, and take gradual steps toward clearer thinking and calmer days.
The tone in sessions is supportive and goal oriented.
Approaches and online support that fit your life
Alicia uses client-centered methods that focus on the person’s own goals and priorities. This approach means sessions are guided by what matters most to the client and by their pace. It helps when someone needs space to be heard and to decide the direction of change.She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which looks at how thoughts and actions keep problems going. CBT breaks concerns into manageable steps and teaches tools for changing unhelpful thinking and behavior. That can be useful for anxiety, low mood, and many everyday stressors.
Finding the best fit is a collaborative process. The therapist and client discuss goals, try approaches, and adjust based on what feels helpful. Alicia works alongside clients to choose strategies that match their needs and preferences rather than assuming one method will suit everyone.
Online therapy with Alicia is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is good for in-depth conversation and nonverbal cues, phone can fit a short check-in or when bandwidth is limited, and chat or text can be useful for quick reflections or on-the-go support. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, family life, or other schedules while keeping the focus on steady progress.
