About Darice
Darice Dodd is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) with about 20 years of clinical experience. She works with people facing anxiety, depression, addiction, relationship strain, parenting stress, trauma, and a range of life transitions.
Background and approach
Darice aims to make beginning therapy feel manageable and grounded. She uses a flexible approach that adapts to each person.
Sessions are conversational and practical. She listens for strengths, then helps build small, doable steps toward change.
Darice draws on several methods to match a person's needs. She uses cognitive-behavioral strategies to address unhelpful thinking and behavior.
Attachment-based ideas guide work on relationship patterns and closeness. Her background includes graduate degrees in counseling and marriage and family therapy.
That training shaped a focus on relationships, family dynamics, and addiction work. She has worked across clinical settings for many years.
Therapy with her centers on respect and clear collaboration. She avoids labels and instead focuses on concrete goals people name.
If someone needs support processing grief, managing anger, addressing body image, or coping with ADHD, she builds a plan to fit their life. Darice offers services from Georgia and provides sessions in English.
She will help clients figure out next steps and practical ways to move forward.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on values and taking meaningful action even when difficult thoughts or feelings appear. It helps people clarify what matters to them and build habits that align with those values. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in relationships and how early bonds influence current connections; it can help with trust, intimacy, and communication challenges. The Gottman Method offers practical tools for improving relationship interactions and managing conflict in ways that build connection over time. Deciding which approach to use is a shared process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, what has helped before, and preferences for change. Together they will try strategies and adjust the plan based on what feels useful and relevant. Online sessions make regular work easier to fit into life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and skill practice. Phone sessions can be a lower-bandwidth option for focused check-ins. Live chat or text messaging are useful for brief check-ins, homework support, or when writing about feelings helps more than talking. These options give flexibility for different schedules and needs while keeping the therapeutic focus consistent.Frequently asked questions
