About Alice
Alice Griffin is a licensed professional counselor who helps people navigate stress, anxiety, depression, parenting challenges, and relationship concerns. She works with adults facing life changes, grief, addiction, trauma, sleep and eating struggles, and career or self-esteem issues. Her manner is straightforward and warm, focused on practical steps you can use day to day.
Alice draws on 14 years of experience in Pennsylvania as an LPC. She blends talk therapy with hands-on tools so people leave sessions with something to try between meetings.
Background and approach
Expect clear explanations, gentle questioning, and collaborative problem solving rather than long lectures. She uses client-centered approaches to make space for your priorities and goals. When thinking about symptoms and patterns, Alice often brings in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques to spot unhelpful thinking and change behaviors.
For people healing from trauma, she may use EMDR to address intense memories and reactions. Alice also incorporates Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills for managing strong emotions and improving distress tolerance. Existential ideas help clients clarify meaning, values, and choices during life transitions.
Her style balances emotional support with concrete coping strategies. People consult her for a wide range of concerns, including ADHD, bipolar mood patterns, parenting stress, intimacy issues, and compassion fatigue. She also offers guidance around adoption and foster care questions, attachment concerns, caregiving strain, and body image issues.
Sessions are offered in English and can include video, phone, chat, or text-based messaging.

Therapeutic approaches for online care
Alice commonly uses client-centered therapy to keep sessions focused on your priorities. This approach emphasizes listening and reflecting so you decide what matters most and set goals that fit your life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify and change thoughts and actions that contribute to anxiety, depression, or sleep and eating problems; it includes practical exercises you can practice between sessions.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Alice will talk with you about your needs, goals, and preferences and suggest methods to try. Together you can adapt techniques over time if something isn’t helping or if your situation changes.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which let people fit therapy into busy days. Video is useful for deeper conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and chat or text can work well for brief check-ins or ongoing coaching-style support. These options make it easier to attend sessions from different locations and to choose the format that matches your schedule and comfort.
