Alicia Frank , LMHC

Alicia Frank is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Florida with 23 years of professional experience. As an LMHC she has dedicated her career to supporting people coping with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, low self-esteem, depression, addictions, and relationship challenges. Her long tenure in the field reflects a sustained focus on helping individuals navigate difficult life events and emotional pain.

Alicia works collaboratively with clients to build an open, nonjudgmental atmosphere where thoughts and feelings can be voiced and explored. She brings particular attention to issues such as divorce and separation, domestic violence, obsessions and compulsions, panic attacks, phobias, and self-harm, tailoring the conversation to each person s needs while encouraging growth in confidence and motivation.

Therapeutic Approaches and Flexible Online Care

Alicia Frank draws on Client-Centered Therapy to create a supportive, empathetic environment where the client's perspective guides the work - this approach is useful for building self-esteem, motivation, and a stronger sense of personal agency. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, panic, and obsessive-compulsive patterns. When relationship patterns and emotional bonds are central concerns, Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) offers tools to explore feelings and improve connection with others.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Alicia works with each person to determine which methods align with their goals, preferences, and the issues they bring to therapy, adjusting the plan as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call or phone, and shorter interactions can happen via live chat or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, maintain continuity of care despite geographic constraints, and access licensed professionals in formats that feel most comfortable.
