About Alicia
Alicia Cooper is a licensed clinical social worker with eight years of experience helping people through relationship and life changes. She works with adults on issues like anxiety, depression, parenting strain, and intimacy-related concerns. Alicia brings a compassionate, straightforward style that focuses on practical next steps rather than jargon.
Alicia draws on approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to tailor support to each person. Sessions focus on identifying strengths, improving communication, and building manageable strategies for day-to-day stress. She often helps people unpack how past attachments and experiences affect current relationships.

Alicia aims to meet those layers without minimizing them, helping people prioritize goals and try small, measurable changes. She encourages skill-building that fits into busy lives.
Alicia also lists adoption and foster care among her additional focus areas and can help people talk through related feelings such as abandonment or attachment challenges. Her style is collaborative; she listens first, then suggests steps that make sense for each person’s situation.
People looking to begin work with Alicia complete a short questionnaire and schedule sessions based on availability. She practices in Colorado as an LCSW and offers therapy in English. The approach centers on practical support, steady partnership, and helping people move toward clearer values and better day-to-day functioning.
How therapeutic approaches shape online work
Alicia uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify their values and take small, meaningful steps even when emotions are hard. ACT often focuses on noticing unhelpful thoughts and choosing actions that match what matters most.She also draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early connections influence current relationship patterns. This approach helps people name repeated dynamics and practice different ways of relating to partners or oneself.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Alicia treats therapy as a collaboration - she listens, suggests an approach, and adjusts based on a person’s goals and preferences. Together they decide which methods fit best and what small experiments to try between sessions.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm the current session options before booking. Many people find online sessions easier to fit into busy days, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Talk to the therapist about scheduling preferences and session length so therapy can work around school, work, or caregiving responsibilities.
