About Alicia

Alicia Teeter is a licensed clinician with five years of counseling experience. She is licensed as an LCPC and as an LPC and practices in Wyoming. Alicia began her career working with people in correctional settings and with substance use concerns, then expanded to support children, teens, and adults facing a range of mental health challenges.

She also has a background in education, having taught both elementary and secondary students.

Background and approach

That classroom experience shapes how she explains ideas and structures sessions. Alicia favors straightforward language and practical steps that parents can use at home. In sessions she focuses on listening first and making space for honest conversation without judgment.

She follows a client-centered stance, meaning she treats each person as the expert on their life and builds goals together. She combines this with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing when past events continue to affect present behavior. Parents who are managing stress, anxiety, grief, parenting challenges, or recovery from trauma will find her approach grounded and direct.

She pays particular attention to how past experiences show up today and helps people practice new ways of reacting. Alicia aims to help clients take the first step toward change with practical tools and steady support. She works by matching tools to each person’s needs and pacing work so people feel ready to try new strategies.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting ruled by them. It focuses on values and small actions that move someone toward a more meaningful life, which can help with anxiety, depression, and parenting stress.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions interact. It breaks concerns into manageable steps, teaches practical skills, and is useful for anxiety, low mood, and coping with life changes.

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, EMDR, is used when past events keep affecting the present. It helps process distressing memories so they lose some of their emotional charge and people can respond differently today.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, needs, and comfort level, and then recommend one or a mix of methods. This is a collaborative process and plans can change as progress happens.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit busy schedules and different comfort levels. These options make it easier to keep regular appointments and to use brief check-ins between sessions. Licensed professionals can guide exercises, teach skills, and support practice remotely while offering flexibility for families and individuals managing many responsibilities.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
