Dr. Georgia HicksLMFT

Dr. Georgia Hicks is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in New York. She helps people manage stress and anxiety, navigate relationship and family concerns, and cope with grief and low self-esteem. She also supports people facing workplace strain, social anxiety, and pregnancy and childbirth related worries.

She draws on two decades of clinical experience to keep sessions practical and straightforward. Conversations focus on what is happening now and what changes feel doable. Dr. Hicks emphasizes building confidence and everyday self-care habits that fit each person’s life.

Sessions are intended to be an open, nonjudgmental space where clients can talk through hard feelings. She aims to make the first steps less intimidating and to move at a pace that feels right for the individual. Treatment plans are shaped around goals the client identifies.

With a history of working on communication problems, divorce and separation, and forgiveness, she helps people untangle relational patterns. She also supports those dealing with isolation, questions of life purpose, and prejudice-related stress.

Her approach is collaborative: she partners with each person to try methods that match their needs and preferences. Over time the focus may shift from relief to building long-term skills for resilience and self-love.

Therapeutic approaches and how they help online

Dr. Hicks uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide sessions in clear, practical ways. One common approach focuses on skill-building for managing stress and anxiety through short exercises and behavior changes that can reduce overwhelming feelings. Another approach centers on improving communication and relationship patterns by identifying unhelpful cycles and practicing new ways of relating that feel more effective.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. She collaborates with each person to understand goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before. Together they try methods that fit the client's needs and adjust the plan as progress is made.

If you plan to use online therapy, confirm the available session formats before booking since the profile does not list specific options. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, save travel time, and allow more flexible scheduling around appointments, work, or childcare. Some formats also let sessions be shorter or avoid using video when that helps with bandwidth or comfort. Licensed professionals can still use the same practical techniques in remote sessions to work on anxiety, relationships, and pregnancy and childbirth concerns.
