About Alecia
She earned a Master’s degree from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee in 1999 and completed an additional concentration in marriage and family therapy. Over two decades of work in diverse settings deepened her understanding of acute psychiatric concerns and life transitions. This background informs how she approaches care today.
Alecia blends several approaches in her sessions, drawing from attachment-based ideas, client-centered methods, cognitive behavioral strategies, dialectical behavior techniques, and emotionally-focused work. She uses creativity to try different ways forward when standard efforts haven’t helped. Clients can expect practical exercises, direct conversation, and collaborative planning.
Her practice addresses a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, addictions, eating and body image issues, parenting strain, relationship and intimacy problems, sleep troubles, anger, self-esteem, ADHD, and coping with life changes. She also focuses on abandonment, adoption and foster care issues, attachment concerns, blended family dynamics, and communication problems.
Alecia emphasizes the relationship as the core of therapy. She describes herself as having an easy manner that helps people feel comfortable quickly. She welcomes questions about her methods and experience before someone decides to begin work together.
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Alecia draws on attachment-based work, client-centered methods, and cognitive behavioral therapy in her practice. Attachment-based work looks at how early bonds affect present relationships and helps people build more secure ways of relating. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and following the person's pace to help them find their own solutions. Cognitive behavioral therapy breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and offers practical steps to change patterns that cause distress.Finding the right approach is part of the work. She collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit best with their goals and situation. That means checking in regularly and adjusting techniques as progress is made or needs shift.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm the current session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow a shorter check-in when needed, and remove travel time. Many people find remote sessions helpful for regular follow-ups and practice between in-person appointments, and she will discuss how to use the chosen format effectively for their goals.
