Welcome! I'm Alycia, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Virginia. I received my Bachelor of Social Work from Marist College and my Master of Social Work from George Mason University. I have been practicing for ten years working primarily with children, adolescents, and families. When I am not at work I enjoy reading, being outdoors, binge watching my favorite shows, and spending time with my husband, dogs, and friends.
In our first session, we will get to know one another and identify your unique strengths and challenges. This will help us to identify our plan for working together in future sessions. I believe in fostering a safe, non-judgmental environment where you can explore your thoughts and feelings.
Having worked with young people over the last ten years, I understand the unique pressures and experiences you face today. I’m here to help you navigate everything from academic stress to personal relationships, guiding you towards greater self-awareness and resilience.
CBT is useful in identifying influence between thoughts, feelings, and behavior. Together we can work to change thinking patterns negatively impacting your well-being.
TF-CBT is an evidenced based treatment approach for children, adolescents, and their caregivers to overcome the impact of childhood trauma.
Sometimes lifes challenges can be difficult to navigate alone which is why I find solution focused brief treatment to be a helpful approach for those who are goal focused and looking for assistance with solutions.
