Felicia Nicosia, LCPC, LMHC

Felicia Nicosia is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief, and major life changes. She writes plainly and listens closely, offering steady support for struggles like depression, bipolar mood shifts, ADHD, and relationship and intimacy concerns. She also addresses parenting stress, career strain, sleep problems, and compassion fatigue. Felicia has 18 years of experience in many treatment settings, including inpatient psychiatric care, foster care and parent coaching, work with at-risk youth, emergency crisis counseling, equine assisted psychotherapy, and art therapy. She holds a master’s degree in Counseling and Art Therapy from Adler University in Chicago and maintains licensure in Illinois as an LCPC and in Florida as an LMHC. Her approach blends Adlerian ideas with tools from acceptance and commitment therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, and solution-focused work. In sessions she looks at everyday factors that matter - sleep, exercise, stress, relationships, and spiritual or creative expression - then builds practical steps from there. Felicia welcomes people at many stages of life and of different genders and sexual orientations. She is comfortable discussing spiritual concerns and how faith or personal beliefs fit into healing, whether or not someone follows an organized religion. Clients can expect a warm, hopeful style that values respect, cultural sensitivity, and honest feedback. Sessions focus on clear goals and small, achievable changes that add up over time.

Approaches you may use in online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice painful thoughts without letting them control actions and moves toward a values-based life. It can help with anxiety, depression, and feeling stuck. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors to change mood and daily functioning; it is useful for worry, low mood, and sleep problems. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person's experience and uses empathy and nonjudgmental listening to build insight and self-direction. Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, daily routines, and what feels most useful, then try techniques that match those needs. Choices are revisited as progress is made, so the plan stays practical and personalized. The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so appointments are simpler to keep. Many people find remote sessions let them keep momentum between life tasks and make consistent care more realistic.
