How do you work with clients with depression?

 My name is Alicia Thomas, MS, LPC. I received my Bachelor of Science in Psychology from University of Houston and a Master of Science in Clinical Psychology with a Specialization in Clinical Counseling from Capella University. As a therapist, I actively work to incorporate your personal experiences, thoughts and feelings into your therapeutic treatment.

Living with a difference, like a chronic health condition or a disability, can feel challenging at times. As a clinical psychologist specializing in rehabilitation psychology, I help individuals to cope and adapt with chronic illness, and thrive during stressful life changes and transitions. I work with individuals to address psychological issues ranging from mental health conditions like anxiety and depression, to coping with health and life stressors, to navigating body image concerns, visible differences, and overcoming shame and stigmatization.

If you find that you’re struggling in your relationships, maybe working harder than others and still feeling that this isn’t enough, or you’re feeling as though life is a balancing act and you’re overwhelmed, anxious, irritable or that you’ll break down at any moment, then you’ve come to the right place. I work with adults who struggle to effectively manage demands, feel burnt out, and are constantly shifting to accommodate their varying needs but never feel steady. I work from an integrative approach with a focus on helping you find relief from painful emotions, increase self-understanding, and learn valuable skills to make effective change. It is possible to feel stable and secure and to have healthy, fulfilling relationships and life. I can help!
