About Alicia
Alicia Colon is an LICSW practicing in Massachusetts with 26 years of professional experience. She focuses on relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, anger, self-esteem, depression, stress, anxiety, intimacy-related issues, sleeping, parenting, career matters, bipolar disorder, and coping with life changes. Alicia also addresses compassion fatigue and ADHD among other mood and behavioral concerns.
She works with adults who are managing strain at home and at work. Her approach begins by listening to each person's story and recognizing the strengths they already have. Sessions are straightforward and practical, with attention to everyday challenges like sleep, parenting stress, and communication problems.
Alicia draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people reduce distress and build clearer patterns of behavior. She offers help with anger and impulsivity, and with mending or understanding difficult relationships. She also supports people facing caregiving strain, blended family tensions, or the effects of domestic violence.
Her background includes long-term clinical work in Massachusetts settings. That experience informs how she helps people tackle career stress, fertility-related worries, isolation, and mood instability. Alicia aims to make the process manageable so small changes can lead to steady improvements.

How sessions work
How evidence-based techniques translate to online sessions
Alicia works from evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change. Cognitive-behavioral approaches look at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions, and help people test different ways of thinking to reduce anxiety and depression. Skills-based methods for anger and impulsivity teach specific strategies for managing reactions and improving communication during stressful moments.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Alicia collaborates with each person to identify which methods fit their goals, needs, and daily life. She will adjust techniques over time based on what is helping and what feels achievable for the client.
Confirm current session options before booking so you know how she is offering care. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy routine and reduce travel time. They also allow brief check-ins that are useful for quick support, or longer visits when deeper work is needed. Sessions are conducted in English and international clients are not accepted.
