About Alice

Alice Nelson is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas who uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as a central part of her work.

Background and approach

She blends practical, evidence-informed techniques with attention to the personal stories that shape emotional responses, helping people identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop concrete skills to manage anxiety, depression, mood swings, and addictive behaviors.

With seven years of clinical experience, she offers a supportive, affirming environment for exploring challenges linked to self-esteem, identity, relationships, trauma, grief, and life transitions. She also addresses concerns such as anger, ADHD, eating issues, and a range of additional focus areas including attachment difficulties, communication problems, and substance-related struggles.

Clients can expect a thoughtful mix of skill-building and narrative work that honors individual history while teaching tools for day-to-day coping. Alice aims to help people strengthen emotional awareness, improve relational patterns, and pursue clearer goals for recovery and growth.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Online therapy with Alice draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify and reframe unhelpful thoughts and build practical coping strategies for anxiety, depression, addictions, and mood-related concerns. Attachment-Based Therapy is also used to explore interpersonal patterns and early relational influences, aiding work on trust, communication, and connection issues.

Choosing the most helpful approach is a collaborative process. The therapist and client work together to assess symptoms, goals, and preferences, then adjust methods over time so the plan fits the person's evolving needs and priorities. This partnership helps ensure interventions remain relevant and responsive to progress and setbacks.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which can make therapy more flexible around work, family, or mobility constraints. These options allow for regular check-ins, skill practice between sessions, and easier scheduling, supporting continuity of care while accommodating varied daily routines.
