About Alicia
Alicia Gray is a California LMFT with 14 years of clinical experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief, depression, and major life changes, including young adult issues. Alicia practices in English and does not accept international clients.
She keeps conversations direct and clear. In sessions she helps people name what feels off, sort through priorities, and build manageable steps forward. Alicia often addresses communication problems, mood concerns, panic, and questions about life purpose and self-worth.
Her approach draws on practical tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and skills from Dialectical Behavior Therapy. She also uses existential ideas to help people reflect on values and meaning. Mindfulness techniques are folded into work on anxiety and grounding during panic.
Those coming for pregnancy or childbirth concerns or women’s issues will find work focused on adjustment and coping. Multicultural concerns are part of her practice, and she attends to how identity and background shape stress and relationships.
A typical early session clarifies immediate struggles and sets short-term goals. Later sessions focus on skills practice, clearer communication, and testing new ways of handling difficult moments. Clients use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions fit
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches practical strategies to test unhelpful thoughts and build new habits, which can help with anxiety, low mood, and panic symptoms.Dialectical Behavior Therapy emphasizes emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills. It offers concrete tools for managing intense feelings and improving communication when relationships feel strained.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Alicia will collaborate with each person to decide which methods match their goals, needs, and preferences. That might mean trying CBT techniques for a few weeks, then adding DBT skills or mindfulness practice as needed.
Session logistics should be confirmed before booking because the biography does not list specific formats. Ask about available online options when you start the matching process.
