About Alyce
Alyce Bitticks is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor, LCMHC, with 43 years of experience. She focuses on helping people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, addictions, and sleep difficulties. She also supports parents and people dealing with trauma and abuse. Her work emphasizes steady, respectful listening and practical steps toward better rest and daily functioning.
She has long experience with survivors of violent or intrusive crimes, including child abuse, sexual assault, and domestic violence. She also has experience with adoption and foster care concerns and with people from multicultural backgrounds. Those experiences shape how she notices safety, attachment, and patterns that affect sleep and mood.
In sessions she aims to build an open space for talking through painful memories and current worries. She uses methods that explore relationships, thoughts, and coping habits to help people change unhelpful patterns. Conversations are paced to match each person's needs, with attention to how rest and routines affect healing.
Alyce blends approaches that look at attachment and early relationships with tools that help manage thoughts and behaviors. She draws on trauma-focused work when past harm affects present day functioning. Over decades of practice she has helped people rebuild steadier routines and improve sleep through clearer daily habits and emotional support.
She practices in North Carolina and works in English. To begin, people follow the site's Start Therapy flow to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions according to availability.
How attachment, trauma work, and CBT translate to online care
Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. In practice this means noticing how people connect, how they calm themselves, and how those habits affect sleep and trust. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on the link between thoughts, behaviors, and feelings. It uses simple, structured exercises to change unhelpful thought patterns and bedtime routines that disrupt sleep. Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on the effects of past harm and teaches ways to process traumatic memories while reducing their hold on daily life and rest.Finding the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, symptoms, and preferences, then try strategies that fit those priorities. Over a few sessions they adjust the plan so it supports better emotional regulation and improved sleep patterns.
The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find that remote sessions make it easier to fit counseling into workdays, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Others prefer longer sessions to work through complex memories or practice new routines. The focus is on practical ways to bring therapy into everyday life and improve rest without promising a particular session type.
