Alecia Beaudry , LCSW

Alecia Beaudry is a Wisconsin-based Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in private practice in Elm Grove who brings more than two decades of experience to her work with individuals and families. She earned a Master of Social Work from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee in 1999, including an additional concentration in marriage and family therapy, and has worked across a variety of clinical settings that expanded her knowledge of acute psychiatric disorders and life transitions.

Alecia emphasizes creativity and flexibility in her approach, combining evidence-informed techniques to help clients tackle problems that have resisted change for years. She draws on multiple therapeutic methods to tailor interventions to each person’s needs, believing that complex challenges often require inventive strategies. Her practice focuses on improving overall health and wellbeing and supporting clients as they move toward a more satisfying life.

Known for an easy manner and an ability to build rapport, Alecia prioritizes the therapeutic relationship as the foundation for meaningful work. She respects the courage it takes to engage in therapy and aims to inspire and empower clients to pursue positive change and lasting growth.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Alecia integrates Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) into her work. Attachment-Based Therapy explores how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people improve connection, trust, and emotional regulation in relationships. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental stance where therapists follow the client's lead to foster insight and self-directed growth, useful for people facing life transitions or searching for clearer personal goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress and to build practical coping skills.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Alecia works with clients to assess needs, goals, and preferences and adapts techniques over time so the plan fits the person rather than forcing a single method. This partnership supports realistic steps toward change and preserves clients' autonomy in treatment decisions.

Online therapy options - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - make scheduling more flexible and reduce barriers to consistent care. These formats allow clients to access licensed professionals from different locations, maintain continuity during life changes, and choose the communication style that best supports their day-to-day needs.
