About Alyce
Alyce Bitticks is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) practicing in North Carolina with over 43 years of experience. She focuses on helping people who are coping with anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, addictions, sleep problems, and the stresses of parenting. Her approach aims to make the first step feel manageable for a worried parent.
Alyce has worked with people affected by child abuse, sexual assault, and domestic violence. She also has experience supporting those touched by adoption and foster care.
Background and approach
Her background includes work with clients from diverse cultural backgrounds and with a range of life-stage concerns. In sessions she aims to build a calm, nonjudgmental space for talking through hard experiences. She uses methods that look at how early relationships affect current feelings and behaviors.
She also adapts tools that focus on present-day patterns and coping skills to reduce distress. Clients can expect a combination of approaches tailored to their needs. That might include exploring past attachment experiences, examining unhelpful thoughts, or addressing trauma-related symptoms.
The goal is to help people find clearer ways to manage emotions and day-to-day challenges. Alyce welcomes people who are ready to begin a conversation about parenting pressures, emotional pain, or the impact of traumatic events. She recognizes that starting therapy takes courage and offers steady support while clients take steps toward relief.

How attachment and trauma work online
Alyce uses attachment-based work to look at how early relationships shape current feelings. This approach helps people see patterns in their close relationships and how those patterns affect parenting and stress responses. She also uses trauma-focused techniques to address the effects of intrusive events and abuse. Those methods aim to reduce trauma-related symptoms and help people regain a sense of control.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the person about goals, life demands, and what feels most helpful. Then she adapts methods so sessions match the client's needs and preferences in a collaborative way.
Online formats offer practical flexibility. Video calls let people use visual cues and more in-depth conversation. Phone sessions can work well when bandwidth is limited or for a quick check-in. Live chat and text-based messaging allow shorter, ongoing support between longer sessions and can fit into busy parenting schedules. These options make it easier to keep continuity of care and to choose what fits day-to-day life.
