About Alecia Rager

Hi, my name is Alecia, I am Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I have 6 years of experience working with individuals, couples and families. I currently have a private practice and my past experience has included working with adults and children in crisis unit, rehab and detox facility, caregivers of individuals with Neurocognitive disorders, hospital trauma units and emergency departments.

I use Evidence Based practices including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Person Centered, Solution Focused therapies with Motivational Interviewing. My goal is to collaborate with members to embrace change through their strengths.

Life can be a lonely place when you no longer feel yourself or are feeling overwhelmed. Anxiety, depression and traumas can feel like a cinder block on our shoulders. You may wonder how things will change? Change begins with vulnerability. To be vulnerable is to let go of the notion you have to struggle alone.

It is time to write another chapter of your story with the strength that has gotten you this far. I offer a safe and non-judgmental space for you to release the burden that is holding you back from living your best life. Be you, Your Way.
