About Alicia
Alicia Collins Wong is an LPCC who brings nine years of clinical experience to her work in Ohio. She focuses on helping people who struggle with stress, anxiety, trauma, anger, depression, ADHD, addictions, and relationship concerns. Alicia uses clear, practical conversation to help people sort through painful emotions and confusing habits.
She prefers a flexible, person-centered way of working. Sessions begin by listening to what matters most to the client and then building a plan together. That plan might include practicing new thinking patterns, learning emotion regulation skills, or trying small behavior changes between sessions.
Alicia draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify thoughts that keep problems going. Mindfulness and dialectical behavior ideas are used to build distress tolerance and reduce reactivity.
Her style is direct and calm. She aims to make sessions useful and focused on day-to-day improvements. Parents reading this will find language that is plain and practical, with steps they can try between visits.
Alicia works with a wide range of concerns, including intimacy-related issues, sleep troubles, grief, parenting strain, and compassion fatigue. She is careful to tailor each plan to the person's goals and life situation.
People who want a collaborative, down-to-earth approach may find her helpful for changing thoughts and everyday habits that get in the way of feeling better.

How therapeutic approaches shape online work
Alicia uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT breaks big problems into smaller steps so someone can try practical changes between sessions and track what helps.She also draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationship patterns affect current reactions. This helps people understand why certain interactions trigger strong emotions and provides ways to practice new responses.
Finding the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to goals, try methods that fit the person's needs, and adjust the plan together over time. Clients are involved in choosing which skills to practice and how quickly to move forward.
Confirm the exact session formats offered before booking so you know what to expect. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It can also let people use video or audio options depending on comfort and bandwidth. Discussing practical preferences during the first contact helps set up a rhythm that works with everyday routines.
