About Alyce
Alyce Bitticks is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) based in North Carolina. She brings 43 years of clinical experience to conversations about stress, anxiety, depression, grief, sleeping problems, and parenting concerns. Her approach aims to make hard topics easier to talk about in a calm, steady way.
She creates space for people to name what feels overwhelming and to try small, manageable changes. She uses several therapy methods to match a person’s needs.
Background and approach
Attachment-Based Therapy helps look at how early relationships shape current reactions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Trauma-Focused Therapy supports people who have experienced abuse, violence, or other traumatic events.
Her background includes long-term work with people affected by adoption and foster care. She has experience with survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault and with those dealing with complex grief and chronic illness. Alyce also has a history of working with clients from multicultural backgrounds.
In sessions she emphasizes listening first and then choosing practical steps together. Conversations are straightforward and paced to the person’s comfort. She encourages people to take the next small step when they feel ready.
To begin, a client completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules sessions through the Start Therapy process. Sessions are offered in English and can use a variety of online formats.
Therapy approaches and online options that fit family life
Alyce uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationships shape current feelings and patterns. This approach helps when connection, trust, or attachment issues affect daily life and parenting responses. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, which focuses on changing unhelpful thoughts and habits to improve mood and sleep. CBT is practical and often works well for anxiety, depression, and sleeping problems.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Alyce listens to each person’s story and discusses which methods might help most. Together they decide on goals and try techniques that match those goals and the person’s comfort level.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to fit sessions into busy schedules. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation from home. Phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging provide options for shorter check-ins or when travel is difficult. These formats can make it easier to keep consistent work on concerns like stress, parenting challenges, trauma recovery, and sleep improvement.
Attachment-Based Therapy
Looks at how early bonds shaped what you expect from closeness, and how that plays out now with a partner, a parent, or your own children.
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.
