About Alice

Alice Fry is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Georgia. She uses a warm, person-centered style to help parents and families facing everyday stresses. Conversations are practical and straightforward, focused on the issues that matter most in home life and parenting.

She offers short-term problem solving alongside longer work on patterns that cause repeated stress. Alice brings three years of clinical experience and draws on clear, hands-on methods to help people manage anxiety, low mood, anger, grief, and life changes.

Background and approach

She also addresses parenting challenges, ADHD, and family tensions in a direct way. In early sessions she focuses on listening and building trust. That foundation helps parents feel heard and helps set simple, achievable goals.

From there she may use cognitive behavioral techniques to change unhelpful thinking or solution-focused steps to find immediate, practical changes. Mindfulness practices are used when helpful to reduce stress and increase calm in daily routines. Alice keeps explanations plain and shows small skills people can try between sessions.

She adapts methods to each family's needs rather than following a single script. Sessions are offered in English and are delivered through video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling steps that follow the therapist's process.

How her approach works online

Client-centered therapy starts with careful listening and respect. In practice that means sessions focus on what matters most to the parent or family member, and the therapist follows your lead to set goals. This approach helps build trust and makes it easier to try new strategies at home.

Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. Alice uses simple CBT tools to help people notice unhelpful thinking and replace it with practical steps. This is useful for anxiety, low mood, and common parenting stressors.

She treats the choice of approach as a collaboration. Early meetings are used to agree on goals and pick methods that match the family situation, needs, and preferences. The plan can change as progress is made.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These formats allow work to fit into busy family schedules and make it easier to try skill practice between sessions. They also let parents choose the way they communicate that feels most comfortable while keeping work focused and goal-driven.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Mindfulness Therapy

Attention training: noticing thoughts and physical feelings as they arrive without being carried off by them. Much of it is practice you do yourself, so guidance over video or audio works much as it would in person.
