Background and approach
Her background includes inpatient psychiatric care, foster care support, parent coaching, at-risk youth programs, emergency crisis counseling, equine-assisted psychotherapy, and art therapy. Those varied roles inform a flexible approach to problems like anxiety, depression, grief, stress, and ADHD. She pays attention to daily life factors such as sleep, diet, exercise, and spiritual concerns when shaping a plan.
Felicia uses a mix of therapy methods to suit each person. She draws on evidence-informed strategies to help with mood regulation, coping skills, and rebuilding routines. Sessions aim to be collaborative and down-to-earth so people can try changes between meetings.
She is comfortable working with people of any gender or sexual orientation and with adults across the lifespan. Felicia emphasizes kindness, cultural sensitivity, and practical steps that fit each person’s life.
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people clarify what matters most to them and take small, value-driven actions. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and life changes where motivation or meaning feels unclear. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches practical skills to change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors, which can help with mood, sleep, and day-to-day coping. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathic listening and building a strong therapeutic relationship to help people feel heard and understood.Choosing the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will talk about goals, try methods that fit those goals, and adjust plans as progress is made. That collaborative process helps match techniques to each person's needs and preferences rather than sticking to one fixed method.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make participation easier. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation for skills work and deeper discussion. Phone sessions require less bandwidth and can be easier on busy days. Live chat or text-based messaging can provide brief check-ins and support between longer sessions, offering flexibility around work, caregiving, and daily routines.
