Hi, I’m Alicia Young, lcsw.

I received my Master of Social Work degree from the University of South Florida and have over three years of experience working with children, adolescents, adults, and veterans in community and healthcare settings.

Throughout my career, I’ve supported individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, burnout, relationship challenges, women’s issues, and life transitions. Working with a wide range of populations has given me a deep appreciation for the unique experiences and strengths each person brings into therapy.

Today, I provide virtual therapy for adults across Florida through The Healing Effect. I am passionate about helping clients feel supported as they navigate challenges, build on their strengths, and create meaningful change in their lives.

I’m honored you’re here and look forward to the opportunity to work together.

My Approach

My approach is warm, collaborative, and solution focused. I believe therapy should feel like a safe place to be honest, process what you’re carrying, and build practical tools for moving forward. Together, we’ll explore patterns, strengthen coping skills, and work at a pace that feels right for you.
