About Alicia
Alicia Collins Wong is an Ohio-based licensed professional clinical counselor with nine years of experience in mental health care. She focuses on helping people facing anger, anxiety, trauma, depression, ADHD, addictions, and related struggles. Alicia aims to meet people where they are and build practical plans together.
She prefers a straightforward, flexible approach. Sessions emphasize clear goals, skill building, and real-world strategies that can be tried between meetings. Alicia listens for what matters most to each person and adjusts methods to fit individual strengths and limits.
Background and approach
When anger is part of the picture, she works on recognizing triggers, learning coping skills, and changing patterns that lead to outbursts. For anxiety and depression she uses behavioral techniques and mindfulness to reduce distress and increase daily functioning. Trauma work includes careful pacing and attention to safety and grounding skills.
Alicia uses evidence-informed tools such as cognitive behavioral techniques and dialectical behavior strategies alongside attachment-focused work. She also brings client-centered and motivational methods to help people find their own reasons for change. The tone in sessions is respectful, direct, and collaborative.
Sessions can cover relationship concerns, parenting stress, sleep problems, identity and intimacy questions, grief, and managing life transitions. Alicia supports people through complex situations like co-occurring conditions, body image concerns, chronic illness, and compassion fatigue.

How her approaches work online
Alicia uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors that maintain problems. CBT often involves short exercises and practical homework to try between sessions, which can help with anger, anxiety, and depression.She also uses dialectical behavior therapy skills to teach emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication. Those skills are useful for managing strong emotions and reducing impulsive reactions over time.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Alicia will work with each person to choose techniques that match their goals, needs, and comfort level and will adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different routines. Video calls let people see visual cues and practice skills in real time, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging are useful for brief check-ins, coaching between sessions, or when someone prefers not to use video. These options make it easier to keep a steady therapeutic routine around work, school, or caregiving responsibilities.
