About Clairice

Clairice Brown Allen is a licensed professional counselor practicing in Georgia who offers support for stress, anxiety, LGBT concerns, relationship struggles, grief, and depression.

Background and approach

With two decades of clinical experience, she draws on a strengths-based view that sees clients as the experts in their own lives while providing structure and tools to navigate challenges. Clairice frames therapy as a collaborative effort and emphasizes practical skills alongside emotional understanding.

Her work addresses related areas such as blended family dynamics, communication and commitment problems, coping after disasters, divorce and separation, and feelings of emptiness or isolation. She also assists clients dealing with forgiveness, guilt and shame, infidelity, jealousy, and questions of life purpose or midlife transition.

Clairice blends client-centered techniques with evidence-informed strategies to help people clarify goals, build coping resources, and improve day-to-day functioning. Clairice holds the LPC credential and brings a respectful, empathetic presence to sessions.

She encourages people to acknowledge the courage it takes to begin therapy and partners with them to create a plan that aligns with their needs and preferences.

Therapeutic Approaches Adapted for Online Care

Clairice uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help clients identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, which can be especially useful for managing anxiety, stress, and depressive symptoms. She also draws from client-centered therapy, providing empathic, nonjudgmental support that helps clients explore their values and build on personal strengths. Emotionally-focused techniques are used when relationship patterns and attachment-related emotions are central concerns, helping people notice and shift interaction cycles.

Choosing the right approach is part of the collaborative process. Clairice works with each person to determine which methods fit their goals, needs, and preferences, and she adjusts strategies over time based on what is most helpful for the client.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. These options make it easier to attend regularly around work, family, or other commitments and allow clients to use different formats for skills practice, check-ins, or deeper sessions depending on what works best for them.
