Alicia Teeter, LCPC, LPC

Alicia Teeter is a licensed counselor with five years of clinical experience. She holds LCPC and LPC credentials and practices from Wyoming. Her background includes both counseling and classroom teaching at elementary and secondary levels. She began her counseling career supporting people in correctional settings and addressing substance use concerns. Over time she broadened her work to include adults, adolescents, and children facing trauma, abuse, and major life changes. She aims to make sessions feel calm and nonjudgmental so people can talk honestly about difficult feelings. Alicia uses a person-centered style that treats each person as the expert on their life. She combines that approach with practical tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and EMDR to help people change unhelpful patterns. Sessions often include talking through thoughts, noticing how the past affects present choices, and practicing new ways to respond. Typical concerns she helps with include stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship and intimacy issues, parenting strain, and compassion fatigue. She also addresses addiction-related problems and challenges tied to chronic illness, caregiving, attachment, and life transitions. Her prior teaching experience influences how she explains coping skills in clear, straightforward terms. Alicia encourages small, doable steps and focuses on what a person wants to try next. She offers support while people build routines that fit their daily life.

How cognitive work and EMDR translate to online care

Alicia often uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT focuses on practical skills - identifying thought patterns, testing them in daily life, and rehearsing healthier responses. It can help with anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems.

She also uses Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, or EMDR, to address the lasting impact of traumatic memories. EMDR sessions guide attention while revisiting difficult memories so those memories feel less overwhelming and interfere less with day-to-day life.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and comfort level, and then suggest which methods to try. Choices are made collaboratively and adjusted over time based on what helps.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls let people read facial expression and body language for deeper conversation. Phone sessions can be a simpler option when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging make brief check-ins and homework support easy between sessions. These formats let people fit therapy into busy schedules and maintain continuity during life changes.
