About Alicia
Alicia Cooper is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with eight years of clinical experience based in Colorado. She focuses on relationship and family concerns, intimacy-related issues, parenting stress, and mood conditions such as depression and bipolar disorder. Alicia also addresses anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, ADHD, and work-related strain like compassion fatigue.
She uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) alongside approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Attachment-Based Therapy, client-centered methods, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). In sessions she listens for patterns in emotions and interactions. That helps identify what keeps problems repeating and where to try different responses.
Alicia works with people on a range of topics including abandonment, attachment struggles, blended family concerns, and communication problems. She also supports clients dealing with substance use, codependency, body image, BDSM and kink related issues, and the fallout from divorce or separation. Sessions include practical skills, behavior changes, and ways to notice and name feelings.
Her practice emphasizes collaboration. Clients can expect straightforward conversation about goals and concrete steps to try between sessions. Alicia describes therapy as a place to practice new ways of relating to oneself and others and to build resilience for everyday life.
To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session. Costs vary with location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.
How Alicia’s approaches translate to online sessions
Alicia uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people name and work with emotions that keep showing up in relationships. EFT focuses on feelings and moment-to-moment patterns between people, which can help when intimacy or communication keeps getting stuck.She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps clients notice difficult thoughts and feelings and choose actions that match their values. Attachment-Based Therapy is used to look at early and current attachment patterns and how those patterns shape reactions in close relationships.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Alicia will collaborate with each client to identify which method or combination fits best, based on the person’s goals and preferences. That collaboration continues as goals change over time.
