Hello, my name is Alicia Sundborg, and I’m honored to work with adolescents, teens, and adults in the Fairbanks area and throughout Alaska via telehealth. I hold a Master of Social Work from the University of Kentucky and a Bachelor of Social Work from the University of Alaska Fairbanks, where I graduated summa cum laude and was inducted into the Phi Alpha Honor Society. I’m currently working toward licensure under the supervision of Justin Knowles, LCSW.

​

My passion lies in supporting others through life’s challenges—whether it’s anxiety, grief, betrayal, depression, or trauma. I believe in meeting each client where they are, honoring their story, and walking alongside them with compassion. My approach is trauma-informed and grounded in cultural sensitivity, inclusivity, and empowerment. I incorporate evidence-based methods like cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), mindfulness practices, motivational interviewing, solution-focused techniques, and restorative justice principles.

​

Healing takes courage, and I strive to create a non-judgmental space where people feel seen, heard, and supported. I’ve learned that personal healing can be a powerful guide for helping others, and my own journey has deeply shaped how I show up in this work. I’m committed to breaking the cycles of historical and intergenerational trauma by fostering safety, resilience, and growth in those I serve.

​

Outside of therapy, I love to travel, make good food, go for long walks, and spend time with friends, family, and especially my two daughters—they’re the heart of my world.
