About Felicia
Felicia brings 18 years of clinical experience across a range of settings. Her background includes traditional counseling, inpatient psychiatric care, foster care and parent coaching, work with at-risk youth, crisis counseling, equine-assisted psychotherapy, and art therapy. She holds a master’s degree in Counseling and Art Therapy from Adler University in Chicago.
Her approach blends several methods to match each person’s needs rather than relying on a single technique. Sessions often look at life circumstances such as sleep, stress, exercise, and relationships while focusing on skills people can use day to day. She emphasizes practical steps alongside personal values and meaning.
Felicia is comfortable working with people at different points in their spiritual journey and across a range of gender identities and sexual orientations. She describes herself as warm, hopeful, and culturally sensitive, aiming to support clients with genuine care.
People come to her for help with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, midlife concerns, relationship and family issues, trauma and abuse, parenting struggles, attention difficulties, mood disorders, and questions of life purpose. Her work blends compassionate listening with clear strategies to move forward.

How her approaches inform online care
Felicia draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to guide practical online work. ACT focuses on clarifying personal values and taking committed action toward them, which helps when people feel stuck or face midlife decisions. CBT breaks patterns of unhelpful thinking and builds skills for managing anxiety, depression, sleep, and mood problems.She treats finding the right approach as a team effort. The therapist will listen to your goals and try methods that fit your needs, adjusting as you go. That collaborative process helps identify what feels most useful and achievable for everyday life.
Confirm current session options before booking since specific formats are not listed in the therapist biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, cut travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. They also let people attend from quieter surroundings or avoid being on camera if that feels better. Licensed professionals work with clients to set practical plans that fit routines and goals.
