01 · Who Alicia works with
Alicia lists 5 specialisms and 12 further focus areas. Specialisms are the subjects Alicia chose to list first, which is the closest a listing gets to “this is my actual practice”.
02 · In Alicia's own words
Reproduced in full and unedited - not summarised, not tightened, not rewritten in a house voice.
I'm Alicia Iacovetta, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and National Certified Counselor (NCC) based in Florida. I work with adults who are navigating substance use, depression, anxiety, PTSD, and co-occurring conditions, where more than one concern is present at the same time. I also help clients build practical skills for managing stress.
I earned my Bachelor of Arts in Social Science with an emphasis in Psychology from Dominican College of Blauvelt in Orangeburg, New York, and my Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Thomas University in Thomasville, Georgia.
I bring 15 years of experience in behavioral health and human services. I began in residential homes, supporting people with a range of special needs to build independence in daily living. I then moved into outpatient Targeted Case Management focused on co-occurring disorders, and providing advocacy for clients within the community. Later, in an acute care setting, I worked as a rehabilitation specialist, leading therapeutic groups and supporting clients in crisis. I have also experienced co-facilitating groups in an Intensive Outpatient Program focused on substance use and relapse prevention. In my most recent experience, as a Mental Health Clinician in emergency services, I provided therapeutic services to clients in crisis and helped them identify their needs and set goals to support their growth and recovery. Across all of these roles, I've seen how much people can change when they feel respected and understood.
I use a variety of approaches and modalities, tailored to each person, including CBT, Gestalt, and Adlerian counseling. With CBT, we look at the thoughts, habits and stress responses that keep old patterns in place and practice new ways of responding. Gestalt work helps you stay connected to what you're feeling and experiencing right now. Adlerian counseling focuses on your strengths, your goals, and what gives your life meaning and connection.
Reaching out for help takes courage, and taking that first step is already something to be proud of. You don't have to have it all figured out before we begin. When you're ready, I'll meet you where you are, with respect and without judgment.

03 · What happens next
Alicia practises through BetterHelp, so the route in is BetterHelp's. This is that sequence, written by Maker Therapy from the platform's published process - not a description of Alicia's own practice, and not a promise about how quickly anything happens.
BetterHelp opens with a set of questions about what you are dealing with, what you want from therapy, and any preferences on the therapist. You are not booking Alicia at this point.
BetterHelp matches algorithmically by default, so asking for Alicia is a step you have to take. There is a field for requesting a specific therapist during sign-up, and you can switch afterwards from your account. Starting from a link on this page does not by itself assign you to Alicia.
You will be offered somebody else rather than put on a waitlist. Worth knowing, because it is easy to assume a match is the person you asked for.
A first session is typically history and orientation: what brought you, what has been tried, what you want to be different. It is also where the questions in the next section belong.
Changing therapist on BetterHelp does not need a reason. A first session that does not click is common and is not a verdict on therapy. That option existing is the main practical difference between a platform and a private practice.
04 · Before you commit
Built from what Alicia actually lists, so they are answerable and specific rather than generic. Maker Therapy's, not Alicia's - Alicia has not seen them and is under no obligation to answer any of them.
“With 15 years in, what has changed most in how you work?”
Long experience is only an advantage if it has been examined. This tends to surface whether it has.
“How do you handle the gap between sessions if something comes up?”
On BetterHelp this varies a great deal by therapist. Better to know the rhythm now than to discover it on a bad week.
