About Alice

Alice Griffin is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania with 14 years of experience. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, and major life changes. She also supports those dealing with trauma, grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, and challenges around sleep, eating, and parenting.

Her style is warm and collaborative. She listens first, then helps clients set clear, manageable goals. Sessions focus on practical skills and everyday habits that can reduce distress and improve daily functioning.

Alice combines several evidence-informed approaches to tailor work to each person. She draws on client-centered methods to focus on what matters most to the client. She uses cognitive behavioral techniques for identifying thought patterns and building new habits. She also integrates dialectical behavior strategies when emotional regulation and coping skills are needed.

For people recovering from traumatic events, Alice uses eye movement desensitization and reprocessing as one part of a broader plan when appropriate. She brings existential perspectives for clients wrestling with meaning, purpose, and life transitions.

Alice aims to make therapy feel usable and relevant. She helps people translate insights into small, repeatable actions. That can mean building better routines for sleep and eating, practicing communication skills, or using step-by-step plans to manage panic, anger, or impulsive behaviors. The work is practical, focused, and paced to each person’s needs.

How her approaches fit into online therapy

Alice uses client-centered work to keep sessions focused on the client’s priorities. That approach emphasizes listening, reflection, and tailoring goals to what matters most. It helps when someone needs a space to sort through feelings and make decisions.

She also draws on cognitive behavioral therapy, which looks at thought patterns and everyday habits. CBT gives clear steps for changing unhelpful thinking and building better routines for sleep, eating, and mood. Dialectical behavior therapy provides tools for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improving communication when feelings run high.

Finding the right approach is part of the collaborative process. The therapist will help figure out which methods match a person’s needs, goals, and preferences over time rather than prescribing a single path from the first session.

If you are considering online work, confirm the available session formats before booking. Online options can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when that suits the day. Talk with the therapist about what will best fit your routine and comfort so sessions can be scheduled around everyday life.
