About Alicia

Alicia Long is an LPC based in Alabama who focuses on helping people navigate stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, and depression. She brings eight years of professional experience to her work and emphasizes a holistic, person-centered stance that values each client’s unique perspective.

Background and approach

Alicia aims to build an atmosphere where thoughts and feelings can be shared without judgment, supporting clients as they explore practical strategies and emotional understanding. Her practice blends evidence-informed approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with client-centered and mindfulness-informed techniques, tailoring interventions to individual needs.

Alicia encourages collaborative goal-setting so clients can take manageable steps toward greater confidence, motivation, and emotional balance. She frames therapy as a courageous choice and provides steady encouragement as people pursue changes that matter to them.

Therapeutic approaches adapted for online care

CBT helps people identify unhelpful thinking patterns and test them against real-life experiences, providing practical skills to reduce anxiety and depressive symptoms. Client-centered therapy emphasizes empathy, acceptance, and collaboration so the client’s goals guide each session and emotional exploration is paced to what feels manageable. DBT offers concrete strategies for regulating intense emotions and improving distress tolerance, which can be useful when working through trauma responses or relationship stress.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with clients to assess needs, try different techniques, and adjust methods based on what fits the client's goals and preferences, all while keeping the work focused and goal-oriented.

Online options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which together provide flexibility for varying schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to continue care during life changes, reduce travel time, and allow clients to connect in ways that suit their daily routines while still engaging in structured therapeutic work.
