Alicia Jones

Alicia Jones is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with 11 years in the counseling field. She began her work in 2011 and has experience across nonprofit, juvenile court, outpatient, and school settings. Alicia focuses on practical help for everyday problems and changes, especially coping with life changes, stress, anxiety, and mood concerns.

Her background includes supporting adults with mood disorders and crisis stabilization, as well as case management and supportive therapy. She spent five years supervising Juvenile Drug Court and providing outpatient substance use counseling, working with teens and parents on coping skills for substance use and co-occurring issues. More recently she has provided school counseling for middle and high school students, addressing anxiety, depression, trauma, and social skills.

Alicia describes her approach as client-centered. She aims to meet people where they are and build on their strengths. Sessions often focus on skill teaching, step-by-step goal setting, and tools people can use between meetings.

She uses practical methods drawn from cognitive behavioral ideas and solution-focused work alongside approaches that emphasize emotion regulation and motivation. Those methods are used to address relationships, self-esteem, addiction concerns, grief, and parenting stress among other issues.

People who choose Alicia usually want straightforward, skill-based work and guidance for real-life problems. She offers a supportive style that breaks big problems into small steps and concentrates on usable tools to improve day-to-day functioning.

How Alicia’s Approaches Translate to Online Work

Alicia uses client-centered work that focuses on the person and their goals, meeting them where they are and building on their strengths. This means sessions center on the client’s concerns and practical next steps rather than a fixed protocol.

She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches skills to change unhelpful patterns. CBT often helps with anxiety, depression, and stress by giving clear tools to practice between sessions. Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques are used to teach emotion regulation and distress-tolerance skills that help when feelings feel overwhelming or relationships are strained.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to choose methods that match a person’s goals, preferences, and day-to-day needs. That conversation can include trying a few strategies and adjusting based on what helps.

Confirm the available session formats before booking, since the biography does not list specific options. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so therapy fits around school or work. Licensed professionals can adapt the same skill teaching and goal setting used in person to work this way.
