About Darice
Darice Dodd helps people facing anxiety, depression, stress, addictions, relationship difficulties, grief, trauma, parenting strain, ADHD, and a wide range of other concerns. She is Darice Dodd, LPC, and brings about 20 years of experience to her practice in Georgia. Her language is straightforward and she speaks English.
Her approach is practical and flexible. She uses a mix of methods and tailors conversations and exercises to each person. Sessions focus on clear goals, coping skills, and understanding patterns that get in the way of day-to-day life.
How Darice works
She draws on approaches such as cognitive behavioral techniques, acceptance and commitment ideas, attachment-focused work, and client-centered listening. That means she helps people notice thoughts and feelings, choose actions that match their values, and repair connections that are strained. Darice prioritizes respect and empathy in sessions.
She aims to create a calm space without judgment and to work from each person’s strengths. She avoids labels and centers what the client wants to change. Practical matters are discussed openly.
People can use video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging for sessions. New clients start by completing a short matching questionnaire and then scheduling sessions according to availability. Her background includes extensive work with substance use and mental health concerns across multiple settings.
That experience informs how she helps people build routines, manage strong emotions, and take steady steps toward better daily functioning.

Online support options
Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It focuses on choosing actions that match what matters to the person and can help with anxiety, depression, and motivation struggles. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds shape current relationships and helps repair patterns that cause hurt or distance. This can be useful for intimacy-related problems, trust issues, and relationship disconnects. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person’s experience and uses empathic listening to build trust and clarity. It supports people who need a steady, nonjudgmental space to sort out feelings and values.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Darice will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit best for their goals and preferences. That means trying approaches, adjusting as needed, and focusing on what helps in daily life rather than following a single formula.
Online therapy offers flexibility for busy schedules. Video calls are good for face-to-face conversation and exercises that benefit from visual cues. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or for quick check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging let people communicate in shorter moments or keep a running thread of progress. Together these options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or travel without losing continuity of care.
