Alicia Betancourt , LCSW

Alicia Betancourt is a licensed clinical social worker who focuses on relationship concerns and everyday stresses. She uses practical, down-to-earth support to help people manage anxiety, low mood, grief, and the strain of life changes. Alicia aims to help clients notice strengths they may have missed and build a simple plan to move forward.

She has practiced therapy since 2011 and brings 11 years of experience to her work in Florida. Sessions are oriented toward clear goals and steady progress rather than vague promises. Alicia listens closely and helps people sort through feelings like anger, shame, and burnout so they can make clearer choices.

Alicia often helps people facing work pressures, caregiving challenges, ADHD, and compassion fatigue. She also supports those coping with relationship tension, blended family issues, and chronic emotional patterns that feel stuck. Her approach is practical and focused on small changes that add up.

She works with people across a wide range of concerns including bipolar mood challenges, personality issues, phobias, and traumatic brain injury. Alicia pays attention to cultural and multicultural factors that shape how people experience stress and grief.

Her practice serves adults in Florida and sessions are conducted in English. To start, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an appointment based on the therapist's availability.

Approaches that guide online work

Alicia uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques focused on practical change and clearer relationships. One approach she commonly uses helps people identify unhelpful patterns and replace them with new behaviors that fit their goals; this is useful for anxiety, anger, and relationship tensions. Another approach emphasizes coping skills and structured problem-solving to manage day-to-day stress, grief, and the challenges of caregiving or job strain.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which techniques match their needs, goals, and preferences. This means adjusting methods over time if something isn’t helping or if priorities shift.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by reducing travel time and allowing therapy to occur from varied locations. If you want to check which session formats are offered, confirm options before booking so you know what will be available. Many people find online work helpful for keeping regular appointments, making follow-ups shorter, and staying connected during times of change.
