About Alice
Alice Griffin is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania with 14 years of experience. She works with young adults and others facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, addictions, trauma, grief, ADHD, and life changes.
Alice focuses on practical skills and clearer understanding. She helps people handle social anxiety, build self-esteem, and improve communication. Sessions often cover coping for sleep and eating problems, managing anger, and dealing with intimacy-related or career challenges.
Her approach balances talking and active skill work. She uses client-centered methods alongside Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy tools. EMDR and existential ideas are available when appropriate for trauma processing and exploring life meaning.
Alice frames therapy as a collaboration. People can expect goal-focused conversations, homework or practice suggestions, and step-by-step strategies for immediate concerns like panic, avoidance, or burnout. She also supports issues tied to identity, LGBT concerns, adoption or foster care histories, and caregiving strain.
Clients come for both short-term problem solving and longer-term work on patterns such as codependency, attachment issues, or chronic stress. She works with people facing complex medical or co-occurring conditions, and with those navigating kink and alternative sexual cultures. For people leaving home, starting jobs, or rethinking relationships, the focus is on manageable changes and clearer choices.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Alice commonly integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy into her work. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical experiments, which can help with anxiety, depression, and career or study stress. DBT emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improving interpersonal skills, useful for anger, relationship problems, and overwhelming emotions.She also uses Client-Centered Therapy principles, which mean conversations prioritize the client's perspective and goals. Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, then adjust methods as work unfolds.

People often find online sessions help fit therapy into busy schedules, make shorter check-ins possible during a work or study day, and reduce travel time. If someone prefers less screen time, therapists and clients can agree on shorter or focused sessions that still move toward the same goals.
