About Alyce

Alyce Bitticks is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) in North Carolina with 43 years of experience. She works with adults dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem struggles, depression, addictions, sleep difficulties, and parenting concerns. Alyce also lists additional focus areas such as attachment issues, adoption and foster care, codependency, and family of origin matters.

She has long experience supporting people who have survived violent or intrusive crimes, including child abuse, sexual assault, and domestic violence. She has worked with people affected by adoption and foster care and with clients from multicultural backgrounds. Her background includes helping those coping with chronic illness, cancer, aging concerns, and first responder issues.

Alyce uses approaches that include Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Psychodynamic Therapy, and Trauma-Focused Therapy. In sessions she listens closely and helps people talk through what is most troubling them. She helps clients identify patterns that keep causing pain and looks for practical ways to try things differently.

Her style tends to be direct and steady. She draws on decades of clinical work to offer perspective and options. These can include looking at early relationships, current behaviors, and how past events still affect daily life.

People who have spent a long time putting others first may find help addressing boundaries, codependent patterns, and self-worth. Alyce accepts international clients and conducts work in English. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How sessions work

How her therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Alyce draws on Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns and helps people notice how those patterns show up in close relationships. Client-Centered Therapy centers on the persons concerns and emphasizes being heard and understood while deciding what to try next. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and offers practical steps to change them.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Alyce will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful and then suggest approaches to try. That decision is collaborative and can change over time as needs shift.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, or let people avoid travel time. Therapists and licensed professionals often use online sessions to maintain continuity of care and to bring therapeutic methods such as attachment-focused conversations and CBT exercises into day-to-day life.
