About Alicia
Alicia Mardirosian is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in New Jersey with 11 years of clinical work. She helps people facing anxiety, depression, grief, relationship strain, and major life changes. Her practice addresses stress, self-esteem struggles, anger, and career-related concerns.
She uses straightforward, evidence-informed methods to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and habits. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is part of her approach, along with client-centered work, mindfulness, and existential ideas about meaning and purpose. Sessions are described as structured but conversational, focusing on small, practical steps clients can try between meetings.
Alicia has training in grief and bereavement and experience with relationship and family issues. She also supports people dealing with caregiver stress, loneliness, mood disorders, panic, and concerns such as guilt, shame, and forgiveness. Her background includes work with hospice and end-of-life counseling.
Her sessions are short and focused; live meetings are 30 minutes in length. She offers appointments on Sundays during the day and on Tuesday and Thursday evenings. She provides video, phone, and messaging options as part of her practice.
Alicia emphasizes collaborative planning. She helps clients set concrete goals, track progress, and practice new coping strategies. The work combines talking, skill practice, and gentle challenge to develop clearer perspective and more effective habits.
How her approaches translate to online work
Alicia combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and client-centered methods in online sessions. CBT focuses on noticing thoughts and testing small behavioral experiments to reduce anxiety and improve mood. Client-centered work emphasizes listening, reflection, and building a collaborative plan for goals and coping strategies.She treats the choice of approach as a joint decision. During early sessions she and the client review goals, preferences, and what methods feel most useful. Together they adjust the balance of skill practice, reflective conversation, and mindfulness exercises as needs evolve.
Her practice lists video, phone, and messaging as offered formats, but readers should confirm the current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into daily life - for example a phone check-in can be shorter and simpler during a lunch break, while messaging supports brief ongoing skill practice between meetings. Many people find that regular, focused 30-minute sessions help maintain momentum and apply new habits to everyday routines.
