Hello, I’m Alicia “Logan” Barrs, LCSW, MSW. Welcome to my practice! With over a decade of experience in mental health counseling, I am passionate about providing compassionate care to individuals and couples navigating life’s challenges. My expertise spans generalist concerns such as anxiety, depression, and work-life balance, but my specialty lies in trauma resolution.

I currently practice exclusively via telehealth, licensed in both California and Texas. My telehealth sessions provide a welcoming and supportive space where clients can feel safe, respected, and even share a laugh as we work together toward self-actualization and healing. In addition to counseling, I serve as a Crisis Management Consultant, offering on-call resiliency counseling during national disasters, traumatic events, or individual crises. My role in these high-pressure situations has honed my ability to guide clients through their most challenging times with clarity and care. For those in the field of social work, I’m also a licensed supervisor, dedicated to mentoring and supporting others in this meaningful profession. Whether you’re seeking a transformative change, trauma healing, or guidance in a difficult time, I look forward to collaborating with you on your unique journey toward wellness. Treatment Philosophy: As a counselor, I value creating a compassionate and transformative space where clients feel empowered to pursue their unique healing journey. I believe that every individual has the capacity for change and growth when given the right support and tools.
