About Alyce

Alyce Bitticks is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor - LCMHC who focuses on trauma, abuse, anxiety, and related concerns. She brings decades of practice to sessions and aims to make the first steps into therapy feel manageable. Alyce emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental space where clients can speak openly about painful events and current struggles.

She has worked with people affected by violent or intrusive crimes, including child abuse, sexual assault, and domestic violence. Her background also includes supporting people touched by adoption and foster care issues, and those coping with grief, depression, and anxiety. Alyce has longstanding experience with a wide range of related concerns such as attachment issues, dissociation, codependency, and problems sleeping.

Alyce describes her approach as collaborative and centered on the person in front of her. She draws on Attachment-Based ideas to look at core relationships, and Trauma-Focused methods to address how past events affect day-to-day life. Cognitive Behavioral techniques are used to identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behaviors when that fits a client's goals.

With 43 years of professional experience, she has worked with people from multicultural backgrounds and with a variety of life challenges, including chronic illness, caregiving, and first responder stress. Her long practice reflects a commitment to steady, respectful care rather than quick fixes.

To begin, Alyce asks that potential clients follow the site's Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire. That step helps schedule sessions based on her availability and match clients to the right fit.

How Alyce's approaches translate to online work

Alyce uses Attachment-Based Therapy to help people look at early and current relationship patterns and how those patterns shape feelings today. This approach can help when trust, closeness, or separation are causing stress. She also draws on Trauma-Focused Therapy to address the impact of past violent or intrusive events, focusing on practical steps to reduce ongoing distress and improve daily functioning.

Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences and try methods that fit those aims. Over time the approach may shift as needs change and progress is reviewed together.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - they reduce travel, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and can be scheduled around work or caregiving. Licensed professionals can adapt Attachment and Trauma-Focused work to remote sessions by using focused conversation, practical exercises, and tools to practice skills between meetings.
