Counseling Approach
Hello and welcome to Heartfelt Horizons Therapy, where change and healing thrive within the safety of the therapeutic relationship. My name is Alicia Pasik and I use she/they pronouns. As your therapist, I am highly relational and believe in the power of genuine connections. I approach our therapeutic relationship with authenticity, curiosity, warmth, and care. Together, we'll embark on a transformative journey to nurture your well-being.
In our work together, I recognize that sometimes words alone are insufficient to express our deepest emotions. In such instances, I incorporate creative modalities such as sand play, art therapy, and expressive arts to facilitate a deeper understanding of your emotions. I offer both in-person and virtual appointments. During our initial consultation phone call, we will discuss which format may be the best fit for you.
Education & Licensure
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Oregon, and a nationally certified Clinical Rehabilitation Counselor. I hold a Master's degree in Clinical Rehabilitation Counseling from Portland State University. This comprehensive training equips me to address both clinical mental health issues and support individuals with disabilities.
I also earned a Bachelor's degree in Counseling with a specialization in Expressive Arts Therapy through Lesley College. This specialized training included major coursework in art, music, dance, poetry, drama & play therapy, and informs my counseling practice today. Furthermore, I am trained in the Sandplay method through the esteemed Sandplay Training Worldwide institute.
Who I Work With
I work with adults who are 18+. I do not offer couples or family therapy at this time. I have a special interest in working with folks who are autistic, transitional aged youth (18-24), and folks who identify as LGBTQIA+ .
I am LGBTQIA+ allied and deeply committed to providing anti-racist services. With cultural humility, I strive to understand how privilege and oppression impact mental and emotional health, creating an inclusive space for everyone. I honor and celebrate neurodiversity as a unique way of existing in the world, rather than a condition to be fixed. I aspire to make my counseling services accessible for folks with physical and intellectual disabilities.

No Surprise Act
Good Faith Estimate
Under Section 2799B-6 of the Public Health Service Act, healthcare providers must give patients who do not have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the bill for medical items and services:
You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any nonemergency items or services. This includes related costs like medical tests, prescription drugs, equipment, and hospital fees.
Make sure your healthcare provider gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing at least 1 business day before your medical service or item. You can also ask your healthcare provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule an item or service.
If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill.
Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate.
