Alicia Zarzuela
Hi there! My name is Alicia Zarzuela and I am a Supervisee in Social Work currently based in Virginia and working towards being a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. My experience has involved working in-person and virtually in school-based and outpatient settings. I’ve worked alongside adolescents, families, and adults with several mental health challenges including anxiety, depression, PTSD, and ADHD. Therapy is a place for you to safely share your fears and worries with, so I make sure to provide a non-judgmental, validating, and safe space for just that. Together, we will explore your challenges, recognize your strengths, and tackle through the obstacles to reach your goals. I’m so excited to begin working with you!
I had the privilege of watching a client acknowledge the unhealthy coping skills he was using to manage social anxiety, and begin to utilize the new tools he learned in therapy.
Our time spent together will be collaborative. Together, we will develop personalized goals, practice new skills, and utilize your strengths to tackle any challenges discussed.
Our first session together will always involve discussing expectations, limitations of confidentiality and therapeutic goals. But it is also time spent getting to know each other through games or discussion.
I have always dreamed of being a therapist. There is so much fulfillment in creating meaningful connections and supporting others on their journeys.
