About Alicia

Dr. Alicia Bosley is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) practicing in New York. She brings 17 years of professional experience to sessions and focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and ADHD.

Her manner is calm and nonjudgmental, aimed at helping people find clearer steps forward. She centers therapy on the person in front of her, not labels. Sessions are collaborative and practical.

Clients map out goals together and try techniques that match their day-to-day life.

Background and approach

Her work draws on Client-Centered ideas alongside Narrative Therapy and cognitive-behavioral tools. That mix helps people rewrite unhelpful stories about themselves and test small behavior changes that can reduce symptoms. She also uses aspects of the Gottman Method for relationship concerns and mindfulness practices for mood and focus.

Dr. Bosley has long experience with LGBTQ issues, intimacy and relationship problems, and the challenges of parenting and blended families. She also supports people facing grief, career decisions, compassion fatigue, and questions about life purpose.

Her additional focus includes polyamory and alternative sexual cultures where relevant to a person's goals. Her style is strengths-based and practical. People leave with specific ideas to try between sessions and a clear plan for moving forward.

She aims to make therapy feel like a steady, useful part of real life.

Approaches that suit online therapy and real life

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and meeting people where they are; it helps people feel heard and figure out their own next steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and offers concrete experiments and skills to change them. Narrative Therapy helps people separate themselves from the stories they tell about their struggles and rewrite those stories to support healthier choices.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will ask about goals, everyday routines, and what has or hasn't helped before, then suggest starting points and adjust methods as progress is made. This is a collaborative process where preferences and goals shape the plan.

Online sessions can be scheduled as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to match different needs. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions use less bandwidth, chat can be a shorter check-in during a break, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, parenting, or other busy schedules.
