About Alicia

Alicia Zamora is a licensed marriage and family therapist who focuses on family and parenting concerns. She works with adults, couples, and families who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or anxious about their relationships or daily life. Alicia aims to make sessions straightforward and practical so parents and partners can use what they learn right away.

She keeps first meetings low pressure and uses that time to get to know each person and their immediate needs.

Background and approach

Alicia treats issues like stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, self-esteem, and ADHD-related struggles. She also supports people navigating blended family dynamics, communication breakdowns, divorce or separation, and conflicts tied to family of origin. Sessions look at how relationships interact so change can happen across the household, not just for one person.

Her style is collaborative and direct. Conversations can be honest and emotional, and she expects real feedback during sessions. The work often includes clarifying what is causing tension, practicing new ways of talking, and trying small behavior changes at home.

With seven years of experience, Alicia blends practical tools with relational understanding. She practices in Connecticut and conducts sessions in English. Her license is CT LMFT 27.002814, indicating she is a licensed marriage and family therapist in Connecticut.

Parents and partners who want clear steps and a down-to-earth therapist often find her approach useful. If a calm first meeting feels important, Alicia structures that first session as a relaxed introduction unless there is an urgent need.

How Alicia brings family-focused therapy online

Alicia uses evidence-based techniques to help families and parents manage common relationship and stress issues. One common approach she uses is a systems-based method that looks at how family members affect each other; this helps identify patterns that keep problems going and suggests small changes that can shift those patterns. Another frequent focus is practical communication skills training, which teaches clear ways to talk during conflict and to share needs without escalating arguments.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Alicia collaborates with each client to decide which techniques fit their goals and situation. She starts with a relaxed first meeting to understand priorities and then adapts methods as progress and preferences become clearer.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible for busy families. These options allow parents and partners to meet from home, fit talks into tight schedules, and continue care when in-person meetings are not possible. The variety of formats supports ongoing practice between sessions and makes it easier to keep momentum toward the goals you set together.
