About Alicia

Alicia Johnson is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in South Carolina. She brings five years of clinical experience and a warm, relational style to work with stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, parenting struggles, and related life changes. Alicia aims to meet people where they are and walk alongside them as they try to close the gap between the life they have and the life they want.

She trained with a focus on marriage and family counseling and uses a practical, down-to-earth approach in sessions. Alicia draws on attachment ideas and emotionally-focused work to look at how relationships shape feelings and behavior. She also uses client-centered and cognitive behavioral ideas to help identify patterns and try new ways of responding.

In session she tends to be curious, compassionate, and straightforward. She offers concrete tools and 'brain hacks' alongside deeper conversation about family of origin, grief, and trauma. Alicia also helps people navigate intimacy issues, abandonment and attachment struggles, blended family dynamics, and questions about life purpose.

She balances clinical work with life as a parent and prioritizes a flexible, process-oriented pace. People who want an approachable therapist who combines practical strategies with relational understanding may find her style a good fit. If you have questions about how she works or about scheduling, confirm current session options before booking.

Alicia holds an LMFT in South Carolina and lives with her spouse and three children. Outside of work she enjoys camping trips in a VW bus and family time with their many chickens.

How Alicia's Approaches Work Online

Alicia commonly draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. This approach helps when trust, abandonment, or closeness feel difficult by mapping connection habits and trying new interactions.

She also uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to identify the emotions that drive relationship cycles and to shift interactions toward greater closeness. EFT can be useful for couples or individuals who want to change how they respond in tense moments.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Alicia will talk with each person about goals, needs, and preferences and suggest which ideas and exercises to try. She adjusts pacing and tools based on how a client responds rather than sticking to a single method.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know which formats are offered. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week and to keep regular momentum between appointments. It can also allow shorter check-ins when a full session is not needed, or let people choose options that better match their schedule or energy. Licensed professionals like Alicia tailor sessions to practical life demands while focusing on relational patterns and useful skills.
