About Alicia
Alicia Burley is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Texas with four years of clinical experience. She works with adults who are facing stress, anxiety, depression, and major life changes. Alicia also pays attention to concerns tied to adoption and foster care, aging and geriatric issues, life purpose, and building self-love.
She focuses on practical steps people can use day to day. Sessions involve talking through what feels most urgent, learning coping skills, and trying approaches that fit each person's life. Alicia keeps language direct and simple so parents and busy adults can follow along easily.
Her background includes working to strengthen resilience and to help people form clearer ideas about what matters next. She helps clients recognize patterns that get in the way and practices small changes that add up. The work is collaborative and paced to each person's needs.
Clients can expect short-term strategies for managing symptoms and longer conversations about direction and purpose when wanted. Alicia uses plain explanations and concrete tools rather than jargon. She supports people who want to feel steadier, think more clearly about next steps, or reconnect with values and goals.
Practical concerns such as daily routines, stress responses, and relationships with caregiving or adoption are part of the conversations. Alicia guides people toward stronger coping and clearer decision points, while keeping sessions focused and actionable.
How Alicia combines approaches and online work
Alicia draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change. One common approach she uses helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and then practice different ways of thinking and behaving. This is useful for anxiety and low mood because it targets everyday thinking patterns and teaches manageable skills. Another frequent element focuses on building coping skills for stress and transitions, such as break-down of problems into steps, pacing tasks, and rehearsing short behavioral changes to test what helps.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Alicia collaborates with each person to choose methods that fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they try techniques briefly and adjust based on what feels useful, focusing on clear next steps rather than abstract theory.
If you want to use online sessions, please confirm the exact formats available before booking. Many people find online options help fit therapy into busy weeks by removing travel time and making shorter check-ins easier to schedule. Online work can also make it simpler to continue care around life changes or when managing appointments related to caregiving or health. Licensed professionals can adapt tools and homework to work well across remote sessions so progress stays practical and grounded.
