Getting to know Dr. Alicia Zielenski

I bring a unique blend of experience and specialized training to my practice. With a PsyD in Clinical Psychology from Alfred University and a background as a school psychologist, I’ve had the privilege of working closely with children, teens, and young adults, guiding them through the ups and downs of growing up. I support clients facing a variety of challenges, including anxiety, impulsivity, behavioral challenges, relationship issues, and parenting struggles. Over the past five years, I’ve honed my expertise by supporting individuals on the autism spectrum through Applied Behavior Analysis. Additionally, I am well versed in providing parent consultation and family support, offering guidance and strategies to help manage challenging behavior or improve familial relationships.

What should a new client know about working with you?

Specializing in working with kids, teens, and young adults, my approach is compassionate, practical, down-to-earth, and collaborative, tailored to the unique needs of each client. I prioritize following my clients' lead and empowering clients to develop new patterns of behavior to facilitate growth and confidence.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

I strive to create an environment that is both professional and comfortable, while remaining approachable and relatable. Together, we’ll explore your personal journey, story, and current challenges to identify clear goals, strategies, and tools that can help you navigate life’s difficulties. When working with younger clients, I often use games and kid-friendly activities to facilitate conversations in a way that feels natural and engaging. I also prioritize building trust and maintaining open communication with parents as an essential part of the treatment process.
