About Darice
Darice Dodd is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) with 20 years of experience practicing in Georgia. She works with stress, anxiety, addictions, depression, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, parenting issues, ADHD, grief, and related challenges. She also addresses intimacy, self-esteem, eating concerns, bipolar mood issues, and compassion fatigue.
Her approach mixes practical, evidence-informed methods. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based work. Sessions focus on noticing unhelpful thoughts and habits, trying small behavior changes, and building skills that fit daily life.
Darice draws from client-centered and dialectical behavior ideas when helpful. She pays attention to how past attachments affect present relationships. Treatment often includes skill practice, clearer communication strategies, and steps to manage strong emotions.
She brings two decades of work in mental health and substance use settings. Her background includes graduate degrees from Georgia State University in Professional Counseling and Marriage and Family Therapy, and licensure as an LPC in Georgia and Missouri. That experience informs practical tools for coping and problem solving.
Sessions are goal-focused and paced to the person’s needs. She helps people set short-term steps and track progress. International clients may be supported, and sessions are conducted in English. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Darice commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in straightforward ways. CBT breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to change patterns that cause distress. ACT focuses on values and learning to take action even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present, which helps with long-term goals.She also uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationship patterns affect current interactions. That work helps clarify communication habits and rebuild safer ways of relating to others. Choosing an approach is collaborative; the therapist and client review needs, goals, and preferences and then try methods that fit the person’s life.

Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce commuting time. It also lets people practice skills in real-life settings and bring concrete examples into sessions for discussion. Licensed professionals will work with clients to set realistic goals and choose methods that match daily routines and practical constraints.
