About Alicia
Alicia Reno is a licensed mental health counselor in Florida who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship strain. She talks with clients about practical steps they can use day to day. Her tone is respectful and direct, and she avoids stigmatizing labels when possible.
She works with people dealing with trauma, substance use, bipolar disorder, eating concerns, attention difficulties, and anger. She also supports those facing parenting challenges, career transitions, and intimacy-related issues.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on clear goals and next steps rather than medical jargon. Alicia blends person-centered care with cognitive tools and trauma-focused methods. That means she listens first, then helps people try small behavioral changes and coping skills.
Motivational interviewing is used to encourage shifts when someone feels stuck. Her style aims to be adaptable to each person. Therapy sessions are shaped around what a client needs most that week, whether that’s skill practice, emotional processing, or problem solving.
Progress is tracked in simple, practical ways. With four years of clinical experience, Alicia brings steady, straightforward support. She conducts sessions in English and provides several online formats to fit different schedules and preferences.
The focus is on helping people manage symptoms and move toward clearer daily functioning.
Therapeutic approaches and how they translate online
Alicia uses client-centered therapy to start sessions, focusing on listening and understanding each person’s concerns before suggesting changes. This approach helps build trust and lets clients set priorities for what to work on.She also draws on cognitive behavioral therapy, which looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. CBT helps people try practical skills and small experiments to reduce anxiety, depression, or unhelpful patterns.
Dialectical behavior therapy techniques are used for emotional regulation and coping skills when emotions feel overwhelming. These tools teach breathing, grounding, and communication strategies that can be practiced between sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Alicia will discuss goals, try different strategies, and adjust methods based on what feels most helpful. That collaborative process ensures therapy focuses on the client’s needs and preferences.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and skill demonstration. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a quick, focused check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging provide brief touchpoints and ongoing support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to keep progress moving forward.
