About Dr. Alicia Bosley

Welcome, and thank you for visiting my page.

Life is complex, unpredictable, and challenging. This can result in a lot of stress, fear, and heartbreak; but it can also bring joy, beauty, and positive change. I have over ten years’ experience working with people who are dealing with many of life’s challenges, and it has been my privilege to assist them in finding their way from the first group of experiences to the second. I believe that people are inherently whole as they are, and that problems such as depression and anxiety happen to us, rather than being a part of who we are.

My expertise is in the areas of couple relationships, LGBTQ+ clients, life transitions, anxiety, depression, and self-esteem. In therapy, my approach is collaborative, strength-focused, non-judgmental, and compassionate. I do not believe in using stigmatizing labels to describe my clients, but if you have a diagnosis that is helpful for you in making sense of your situation, I will always respect that. I believe that you are the expert on your life, while I am the expert on therapeutic techniques to help you with your life. I use a primarily systemic, narrative approach, with some elements of cognitive-behavioral and solution-focused therapies in my work. Together, we will create a customized plan to address the problems you are dealing with and clear the path to your best life.

It takes courage to seek change in your life, and I respect my clients for taking this important step. I look forward to working with you as you regain a sense of yourself and come to a place of empowerment.

I always feel safe and comfortable opening up to her and she is always understanding and accepting. I feel like she is sincere about my wellbeing and the work we do together in our sessions.”

“Dr. Bosley is very bright and insightful but not in an arrogant way rather she’s extremely conscientious and respectful. She navigates the sessions very thoughtfully not to take sides or pass personal judgements even when frankly, they are warranted yet almost magically gets her point across. We feel extremely fortunate to have her at Regain’s prices.”
