Alicia Blankenship is a dedicated Clinical Social Worker and therapist who is passionate about helping child and adolescent victims of abuse and neglect to heal emotionally and overcome the invisible scars that hold them back from feeling empowered and leading their best lives. She works closely with caregivers and families who are affected by these challenging experiences, guiding them to better support their loved ones while enhancing their own emotional wellbeing. Alicia provides a compassionate and non-judgmental safe space for adults grappling with unresolved trauma, whether from the past or in the present, facilitating a collaborative approach to processing thoughts in healthier, more adaptive ways. Her goal is to help individuals pursue their aspirations and thrive rather than merely survive. WellPower, her small private practice, offers a warm and inviting atmosphere reminiscent of a cozy living room, allowing clients to feel more at ease as they address their life challenges. She has created a special playroom equipped with toys and craft supplies that encourages children to express themselves through play therapy, thus fostering a unique therapeutic experience. With training from UNC Chapel Hill and USC and a wealth of specialized training in various evidence-based psychotherapy models, Alicia strives to elevate lives by empowering clients. Together, she collaborates with clients to explore tailored approaches that improve their current situations and promote healing.
