Alicia Taylor, LPC, EMDR Consultant

Alicia Taylor is a licensed professional counselor with over a decade of experience in the mental health field. From the start of her career, she's been driven by a deep passion for health promotion and the mental and emotional well-being of the people she serves.

Alicia began her professional journey in public health, specializing in communicable disease prevention and control. She later took this passion into the mental health field.

Over the years, Alicia has honed her skills in trauma-informed care, grounded in empathy, respect, and collaboration. She supports a diverse range of clients including first responders (police officers, firefighters, EMTs, nurses), professional athletes, adults impacted by trauma, grief, anxiety, or depression, and couples navigating relational stressors.

In addition to her therapy practice, she provides clinical supervision (Missouri) to master’s level mental health providers. As an EMDRIA Approved Consultant, she supports clinicians pursuing EMDR certification and training.

Alicia believes that healing happens when people are met with genuine understanding, and an opportunity to explore what health and wellness looks like for them.
