Hi there! My name is Alicia and I am a licensed counselor. The first step in reaching out for help is challenging, so give yourself some credit for making it here.
My goal in sessions is for us to work collaboratively and I can give you the tools you may need to become the best version of yourself. My areas of focus are in working with trauma, family dynamics, and eating disorders.

People come to therapy for many reasons. Some are struggling with anxiety, OCD, stress, or feeling emotionally overwhelmed. Others are navigating life transitions such as starting college, entering adulthood, changing careers, becoming a parent, caring for aging parents, or moving through perimenopause and menopause. Sometimes there isn’t a single crisis. Instead, there is a growing sense that life feels harder than it should, or that old ways of coping are no longer working.
I work with teens, young adults, and adults who are trying to manage the demands of everyday life while carrying a great deal beneath the surface. Many are bright, capable, and caring people who find themselves overthinking, emotionally exhausted, distracted, stuck in patterns of worry, or struggling to make space for their own needs. Together, we work to better understand what is keeping them stuck, develop practical tools, and create meaningful changes that support a more balanced and fulfilling life.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Cranford
Finding the right therapist in Cranford, NJ starts with identifying what you're looking for.

Common credentials include Licensed Professional Counselors (LPCs), Licensed Clinical Social Workers (LCSWs), Licensed Marriage and Family Therapists (LMFTs), and psychologists. If you may need medication management, a psychiatrist or psychiatric nurse practitioner can help.
