01About Alicia
Dr. Alicia Moran brings nearly three decades of counseling experience to people navigating stress, anxiety, grief, and shifts in life roles. She is listed as an LPC - Licensed Professional Counselor - and is based in the District of Columbia.
Her style is calm and conversational and she focuses on helping clients name feelings and choose ways to move forward. She centers work on emotional intelligence and how past beliefs shape present feelings.
Background and approach
In sessions she helps people notice patterns of guilt, shame, and reactivity so they can make different choices in daily life. She does not give prescriptive advice; instead she offers options and supports people in picking what fits their values and goals.
Her background includes long-term practice with trauma, mood symptoms, panic, and anger issues, and she also supports people dealing with parenting stress, relationship communication problems, and life-purpose concerns. Her approach draws from several evidence-based techniques to match each person’s needs rather than using a single method for everyone.
People who choose her tend to want straightforward conversation and focused work on feeling regulation, coping skills, and clearer decision making. Sessions are practical and aimed at building skills that can be used outside of therapy. Dr.
Moran offers services to English-speaking clients in the District of Columbia and through online formats. She emphasizes collaborative problem solving and helps people find steps they can try between sessions.

04Online support
Evidence-based approaches for online healing
Dr. Moran draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that help people regulate emotions and change unhelpful patterns. One approach she uses focuses on emotional awareness and learning how beliefs from the past influence current feelings; this helps when guilt, shame, or family-of-origin issues keep repeating. Another method emphasizes practical behavior and thinking changes to reduce panic, manage mood swings, and address anxiety through step-by-step skills people can practice between sessions.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. She will talk with clients about goals, try methods that fit their needs, and adjust plans based on what helps most. The process is collaborative and paced to what each person can manage.
Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video allows face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging work well for brief check-ins, skill prompts, or quick emotional support between appointments. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life and to keep momentum between sessions.
