Alicia Hicks, LCSW-S helps you with cope with the transitions and troubles that leave you feeling uncertain, lonely and anxious in your everyday life. Whether you are a child or adult, my hope is for you to experience deliverance, peace of mind, and relief instead of letting your problems control you. Imagine having someone you can talk to outside your family or friends who will not only listen but is neutral and confidential. What a relief to get things off your chest, problem solve, or just level up in your personal and spiritual growth.

Therapy is a partnership that grows in an atmosphere of safety and acceptance. It allows one to rediscover the parts of selves which may have been disowned; to learn new skills to handle grief and distress; to build healthier, more nurturing relationships; and to gain access to one's own direct experience of the world. I nurture this collaboration with clients and recognize that within each of us there exists a deeper wisdom that, given adequate support, naturally moves toward healing and integration.

We go through so much in our lives. Love and loss molds us to who we are today. People who have come me for counseling seek a voice, want a safe place to share their life's experiences and have a need to be understood. I offer a kind, non judgmental atmosphere, some guidance through points & places where change has happened or where change is needed in our lives. Together we will learn more about ourselves. We will continue to grow.

Growing with gratitude is my motto.
