About Alice

Alice Griffin is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Pennsylvania with 14 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, anger, addiction issues, relationship problems, grief, and life changes. Alice also supports people with intimacy concerns, sleep and eating problems, career challenges, ADHD, and compassion fatigue.

Her style is straightforward and conversational. Sessions focus on understanding what triggers strong reactions and on building practical skills to respond differently. She uses evidence-based tools to help people change patterns that cause distress at home or work.

Alice draws on Client-Centered Therapy to keep the conversation focused on the person's goals and values. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills are introduced when people need tools for emotion regulation and managing intense feelings.

For people processing traumatic memories, she offers EMDR-informed strategies alongside other approaches. Existential ideas are part of conversations about meaning, choice, and life transitions. These methods are mixed to fit the issues a person brings to sessions rather than following a fixed formula.

Alice works with a broad range of concerns related to family, attachment, neurodiversity, aging, and alternative sexual cultures, among others. Conversations include practical coping tactics, communication practice, and planning for gradual change. To begin, clients complete a short questionnaire and schedule an initial session through the site's online options.

How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions

Alice commonly uses Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) in her work. Client-Centered Therapy keeps the focus on the person's own goals and values, helping them name what matters and choose next steps. CBT breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches ways to test and change unhelpful thinking. DBT offers concrete emotion regulation and interpersonal skills for managing intense feelings and improving communication.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist and client review the issues, goals, and preferences together and agree which methods to try. Approaches may be combined over time so the plan matches what the client needs in practice rather than sticking to one method from the start.

The profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, like shorter check-ins during a break or avoiding travel time. It can also let conversations continue when schedules or locations change, while still centering skill practice, homework, and real-life problem solving.
