In-Person Therapy in New Orleans, Louisiana
For adults and anxious teens who are ready to LET GO of everyone else’s “too much” and “not good enough”
And BECOME their confident, true, authentic selves
You are MORE than what you do for everyone else.
When clients first come in, they are overwhelmed, confused and (if they dare) FURIOUS.
The relationships that they thought were picture perfect are crumbling.
They have been ON for so long: straddling the expectations of their families, cultures, and relationships.
They have been taking care of everyone else.
Trying to be perfect for everyone else.
Worried about being “good enough” for everyone else.
Through it all, they have found themselves shrinking.
And on the inside? They are exhausted and ready to SCREAM.
But they have also had enough. And so have you.
If you are ready to shed fear and feeling stuck and, instead, heal your past and lean into your full self, I would love to help you get there.
My clients struggle like you do.
Despite being caring, empathetic, and investing energy into their relationships, they feel isolated, empty and unimportant.
You deserve to feel joy, worth, and connection.

Hi, I’m Alice Zic!
I am a trauma therapist and daughter of Bosnian immigrants. I grew up in a bilingual and multigenerational household—tethered between worlds.
Right now, you feel like no matter how hard you work and how hard you try, it’s never enough. You just want that one person to care enough.
See you enough.
Be proud of you enough.
I get it.
I know you are exhausted. And confused. It’s hard to trust yourself sometimes. It’s hard to trust other people sometimes too.
You grew up too fast. You are always taking care of someone else’s needs. You keep wondering how you are constantly the emotional caregiver in every relationship. And you are getting tired and burnt out.
Isn’t it time to take care of you too?
I believe that trauma therapy and therapy for teen anxiety create a space to develop safety and empowerment. Therapy unlocks the pathway to feel seen, to learn how to love and nurture yourself, and to learn when enough is enough so that moments of visibility in the world can feel tolerable and enjoyable.
In therapy with me, we’ll work together to shift the way you see yourself and your relationships. These changes can look like quieter anxiety, stronger boundaries, more confidence, and finally feeling enough—not just on the outside, but internally too.
Ready to start therapy in New Orleans, Connecticut or Virginia? I can’t wait to meet you!
What I Help With:
-

Parentification Trauma
You grew up fast, sacrificing your childhood in a world that was tough on your family and where you were not seen. Release the masks you needed to protect yourself. Slowly and gently heal the younger you who did not have the support and safety you needed.
-

Childhood Trauma
You felt “too much” and “not good enough” for your own mother, and this story kept you stuck in shame and people-pleasing. Heal and reparent your mother wound so the person you are can emerge and thrive.
-

Teen Anxiety
You have been watching your teen grow, but suddenly, they are shutting down and a shell of who they used to be. Let’s boost their confidence, grow their self-worth, and enable them to become the capable, deserving individual you know they can be.
-

IFS
IFS (Internal Family Systems) Therapy is a trauma-informed approach that restores compassion and capability to you. You develop new patterns and reparent yourself.
