ABOUT ME

Hi! My name is Alicia Ciccone. I’m a mama, a proud military wife and clinical therapist. Each one of these titles brings me a sense of joy and pride, and all come with their unique rewards and struggles.

It took me many years to discover I wanted to take the steps to become a therapist. I’ve always been a “helper”, but my incredible fear of blood discouraged me from pursuing a career in traditional healthcare. As I pushed through school trying to find my path, I became more and more drawn into mental health. I began to wonder, “How would I be different today if I had a therapist to talk to when my father died at a young age? Or having someone to help me understand the power of addictions when growing up in a family of addictive behaviors…. Or… or…. Or…”.

Fast forward a few years, I have had the opportunity to work in a large variety of different settings as a therapist. Some clients would seek therapy in order to enrich or enhance their lives, some were court ordered, some were even behind bars. Being able to witness growth and watch as people gained hope in themselves or their situations has turned a career into a passion.

In my free time you will likely find me on a mountain biking trail, hiking, trying new foods, traveling, or finding a swimming spot for my water loving dog. I get excited about exploring new places, trying new things, and experiencing everything life has to offer. Being able to do all my favorite things with our little girl has brought on a new sense of gratitude as we watch the love and curiosity grow in her.

I get excited about challenging boundaries and stepping out of my comfort zone. I encourage everyone I know to do the same! And for many people, that starts right here with seeking therapy!
