About Alicyn
Hello! Thank you so much for reaching out! Sometimes taking the first step can be the most difficult step. My name is Dr. A and I have been providing counseling since 2002. I believe we all possess the skills to reach our potential and that as a Counselor it is my job to help you find your strengths to be the person you want to be. I have worked with children as young as 3 years old as well as adults. Much of my experience is with children who have experienced trauma and their caregivers. I will focus on building an authentic and supportive relationship with you and utilize techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness, Solution Focused and many other modalities. I look forward to working with you!
