Alice Griffin

Alice Griffin, LPC, helps people facing anxiety, depression, relationship strain, and major life changes. She works with concerns such as stress, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting strain, and issues around intimacy and self-esteem. Her manner is calm and straightforward, aimed at making difficult problems feel more manageable.

Alice draws on 14 years of clinical experience in Pennsylvania to tailor care to each person. She focuses on practical tools you can use between sessions, and on clear goals you can measure over time. Sessions are collaborative - she listens first, then suggests steps that fit your life.

Her work often includes cognitive behavioral ideas to spot unhelpful thinking patterns and client-centered methods that keep the person’s priorities in the lead. For people coping with trauma, she may incorporate EMDR elements along with techniques from dialectical behavior therapy to build emotional regulation skills.

Alice also supports people dealing with career stress, ADHD, compassion fatigue, chronic health challenges, and identity matters including LGBT concerns. She helps with communication problems, codependency, abandonment issues, adoption and foster care experiences, and concerns related to body image and sexual expression.

Her approach emphasizes steady progress rather than quick fixes. Alice encourages small, doable changes and tracks what helps. To start, she asks about current challenges and what an improved life would look like, then creates a practical plan to get there.

How these approaches translate to online work

Alice commonly integrates client-centered methods and cognitive behavioral ideas into her work. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening closely to what matters to you and shaping sessions around your goals. Cognitive behavioral therapy helps identify unhelpful thinking and practice different behaviors to change feelings and outcomes.

She may also draw on dialectical behavior therapy strategies to teach emotion regulation and coping skills for intense feelings. DBT techniques can be useful for managing strong emotions, improving communication, and reducing impulsive reactions.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with you about your needs and preferences and then suggest a plan. Decisions about which methods to use are collaborative and can change as you progress.

The practical benefits of online therapy often include easier scheduling and the ability to fit sessions into a busy week. Because the listed biography does not detail specific online formats, confirm the available session types before booking. Online sessions can make it simpler to have shorter check-ins, avoid travel time, and work on skills between meetings in the context of everyday life.
