About Alicia
Alicia Reno helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and other life disruptions. She is a licensed mental health counselor, LMHC, practicing in Florida. Alicia writes treatments to match each person's situation and goals.
She uses a person-centered approach that puts the client's perspective first. Conversations are respectful and straightforward. Labels are not the focus; the focus is on what is getting in the way day to day.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, shows up in sessions as practical skills to notice and change thought patterns and behaviors.
How Alicia works
Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, brings strategies for managing strong emotions and improving relationships. Mindfulness practices can help people get more calm and focus during stressful moments. Alicia also draws on trauma-focused methods when past events are affecting current life.
Motivational Interviewing is used to support people who want to change habits, including substance use and other behaviors. She combines these approaches to form a plan that fits the person's pace. Sessions are collaborative and goal-oriented.
Alicia works with each person to set realistic steps and track progress. Her style is warm and direct, aiming to create practical change over time.

Approaches that translate to online work
Alicia uses Client-Centered Therapy to center the conversation on the person's experience and goals. That means sessions focus on listening closely, reflecting what matters most, and shaping the pace to the person's needs.She also applies Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and builds practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. CBT works well for anxiety, depression, and stress by offering concrete tools to practice between sessions.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques are used to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication. These skills are useful when emotions feel overwhelming or relationships are strained.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals and try methods that fit the person's needs and preferences. Adjustments are expected as progress unfolds, and decisions about focus are made collaboratively.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video lets therapists and clients use visual cues and deeper conversation. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a work break. Live chat and text are useful for shorter check-ins, skill reminders, or when writing things out feels easier. These options make it possible to schedule care around life demands and stay consistent with skill practice.
