About Darice
Darice Dodd is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with about 20 years of clinical experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship struggles, grief, mood concerns, parenting problems, and trauma. Darice works in Georgia and offers sessions in English, including to international clients when arranged.
Her approach is flexible and practical. She draws on Narrative therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy along with attachment-focused and cognitive-behavioral methods to match each person's needs.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on what matters most to the client and on small, usable steps that can reduce distress and increase connection. Darice favors a respectful, nonjudgmental tone. She frames difficulties as problems a person is facing rather than labels to carry.
Conversations aim to uncover personal values, shift unhelpful patterns, and tell a clearer story about strengths and choices. She offers a mix of formats including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Many people value the convenience of these options for fitting therapy into busy days or continuing work when travel is difficult.
Practical matters like cost and scheduling vary by location and use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a session according to availability.

Narrative Therapy in this listing
Narrative Therapy appears in this therapist's own list of approaches. That tells you it is part of how she works. It does not tell you how much of a session it shapes, and this directory does not check or rate training.
If a narrative approach is what you are looking for, it is worth asking Darice directly how she uses it and what a session usually looks like.
Online session options
How Narrative and ACT shape online sessions
Darice uses Narrative therapy to help people reframe their stories and separate themselves from problems that feel overwhelming. This approach can be useful for relationship issues, grief, identity questions, and patterns that repeat over time.She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which focuses on identifying personal values and taking committed steps toward them even when uncomfortable feelings appear. ACT is often helpful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes. Attachment-Based ideas are woven into sessions when relationship dynamics or early connection patterns affect current struggles; this helps people understand how past bonds shape present behavior.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to your goals, try methods that fit your needs, and adjust as you learn what helps. Clients are invited to experiment with small exercises and practical steps between sessions to track what works.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video works well for in-depth conversations and reading nonverbal cues. Phone calls can be a lighter option when bandwidth is limited or a camera isn’t preferred. Live chat and text messaging suit short check-ins, brief coaching, or days when typing feels easier than speaking. These options make it simpler to attend sessions from different locations and to fit therapy into busy schedules.
