How Alicia’s approaches translate to online work
Alicia commonly uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how past and present relationships shape reactions and expectations. This approach helps when anger is tied to trust, abandonment fears, or recurring relational patterns.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and replacing them with clearer, more effective choices. CBT is useful for workplace frustration, anger that follows automatic thoughts, and stress-related reactions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Alicia will collaborate with clients to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. She talks through options and adjusts plans as skills are learned and situations change.
