I work from a holistic framework, blending cognitive psychology, mindfulness, current psychological research, and nature based therapy to help individuals and couples thrive. Sessions involve collaborating on an integrative treatment approach, combining insight, skills-based techniques, and creating objectives to meet goals and help clients understand how their past experiences and relationships shape who they are now. My work is to help people remove the obstacles that stand in the way of healing and one's capacity to be the best and truest version of oneself. Whether an individual comes to therapy with a vague sense that something is not right or an overwhelming sense of pain (or somewhere in-between), together we will create a safe space to being, to put words around your experience, and to create possibilities for change.

A Colorado native, Alicia earned her masters degree in counseling at Naropa University. While pursuing her degree, she worked as a preschool teacher. Being simultaneously immersed in the worlds of counseling and childhood development was an immensely fulfilling experience, leading Alicia to pursue Play Therapy, a modality that blends these lifelong interests. Alicia has clinical experience as a therapist at Mount Saint Vincent Home in Denver, a trauma-focused residential facility for children. In her extensive experience working with children and families, play has consistently proven to be an effective and natural method of communication, authentic expression, and healing.

Having worked with children and families and the many challenges they face for more than 20 years,I know that the decision to seek professional help can often be a very difficult one. I have a background in child and adolescent mental health and have worked with families extensively around these issues. I provide therapy to children, teenagers, and adults and families. I specialize in working with children and adults who have experienced trauma, have attachement issues, learning disabilities, autism, anxiety and depression.
