Hello there. I'm Alan Hickey, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in the state of Florida. I graduated from the University of Central Florida in 2015 with a Master of Arts degree in Marriage, Couple, and Family Therapy. There's an important connection between our thoughts, feelings, and actions. They influence one another in many ways, though they are often in ways that may be confusing - at first - to the person living them. By talking about them, we can together gain a deeper understanding of how they are connected for you, then equip you with new ways of interrupting uncomfortable patterns of thinking, feeling, or interacting. Whether it be assisting a person in learning how to continue finding the joy in life after the loss of a loved one, moving forward when feeling disconnected from oneself, rebuilding ruptured connections with others, or overcoming other overwhelming ordeals, I look forward to the opportunity to help you.

I start with the assumption that every human being has a purpose and the ability to be a productive member of society. I believe that we all have an optimal self and that it is helpful to have someone act as a mirror and a support to keep moving toward that optimal self. I primarily utilize the practice of neuropsychotherapy, although this approach leaves room for most other theories under its umbrella. My approach often employs the theory and techniques of Person-Centered, Cognitive-Behavioral, Adlerian, and Existential therapies. I believe in a healthy mind, body, and soul, and in that vein, I provide counseling in spiritual matters tailored to each client’s personal beliefs. I am proud of my formal education, and I obviously could not do this work without it. However, the key to my ability to help others has always been the education I’ve garnered through my own life experiences. I draw on both of these influences as appropriate.

5 years offering treatment
I am licensed in Florida with 5 years of professional work experience. My goal as your therapist is to help you explore and incorporate your creative capacity for change, to heal yourself and empower you to live the life you’ve been waiting for. Are you a creative person looking for a unique approach to therapy? If you can imagine singing, writing or playing music as part of your ideal therapy session then you've come to the right place. I believe creativity is a way to work through challenges and move forward. I utilize expressive music processes in therapy (singing, songwriting, musical improvisation, movement, etc.) to help my clients. With a masters degree in music and over 20 years experience in the fields of music therapy, arts-based community facilitation, and music education, I provide my clients a safe space to express themselves, problem-solve and grow. I enjoy working with a diversity of clients and have experience providing culturally competent and affirming therapy to LGBTQ+, neurodiverse, kink, poly and ethically non-monogamous clients. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. I look forward to working with you!
