About Alice
Alice Griffin is a licensed professional counselor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strains, and addictions. She has 14 years of experience and works with a wide range of concerns including trauma, grief, parenting challenges, ADHD, and issues around intimacy and self-esteem. Alice keeps sessions straightforward and practical.
She focuses on immediate coping skills first, then works on longer term patterns. Her style is collaborative - she checks in about goals and adjusts plans as needed.
How Alice works
She uses approaches that match the person in front of her. That can mean talking through thoughts and behaviors, practicing skills to handle strong emotions, or using targeted trauma work for painful memories. Sessions aim to leave people with clear steps they can try between meetings.
Alice draws on 14 years of clinical work in Pennsylvania as a PA LPC - licensed professional counselor. That experience informs how she guides people through life transitions, career stress, caregiving strain, and complex grief. She also supports people navigating identity and relationship questions, including LGBT concerns, adoption and foster care issues, and nontraditional sexual cultures such as kink.
The overall focus is to help each person build more reliable coping, better communication, and a clearer sense of direction.

Online support options
How her approaches fit into online therapy
Alice often blends Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening closely and building a trusting relationship so people can talk openly about what matters. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at thoughts and behaviors and uses practical exercises to change patterns that worsen mood or anxiety.She may also use Dialectical Behavior Therapy when strong emotions or fragile relationships are central concerns. DBT teaches skills for managing intense feelings, improving communication, and tolerating distress without making things worse. These methods can be used together depending on the issues a person brings to sessions.
Finding the right approach is a joint process. The therapist will ask about goals, preferences, and what has helped or not helped before. Together they try different strategies and adapt the plan as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video is useful for deeper conversation and visual cues, phone works well when bandwidth is limited, live chat and messaging can be short check-ins or ongoing coaching between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or travel schedules while keeping continuity of care.
