About Alyce

Alyce Watts is a Georgia-licensed clinical social worker who brings 23 years of experience to clients navigating stress, anxiety, relationship and family difficulties, grief, and depression.

Background and approach

She approaches each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, creating treatment plans and conversations that respond to the realities of their lives and goals. Alyce emphasizes practical strategies alongside emotional support so people can move toward greater stability and satisfaction.

Her clinical work draws on evidence-based methods including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Solution-Focused Therapy to address trauma, intimacy issues, eating and body image concerns, caregiving stress, and other challenges.

She adapts interventions to the client rather than applying a one-size-fits-all model, helping clients build skills for coping with life changes, managing mood disorders, and resolving family or relationship conflicts. Alyce is listed as LCSW and CSW and practices in Georgia, offering a collaborative, individualized path toward meaningful change.

How evidence-based approaches translate to online care

Many of Alyce’s methods focus on practical skills and values-driven change, which translate well to remote sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) centers on identifying and changing unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety and depression; it often uses exercises and homework to build daily skills. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify personal values and take committed action while learning to accept difficult feelings, which can be useful for grief, chronic stress, and life transitions. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, supporting those who struggle with intense emotions or relationship challenges.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Alyce works with clients to explore which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adapting techniques over time so therapy stays focused and relevant. Clients are invited to share feedback and shape the plan as they progress.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, allowing therapy to fit into busy lives and different comfort levels. These formats make it easier to access regular support without extensive travel, helping clients maintain continuity of care and apply skills between sessions.
