She helps people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, relationship strain, grief, trauma, parenting challenges, ADHD, and mood concerns. Her tone is direct and compassionate, aimed at people who want practical change rather than labels.
She uses a mix of approaches to fit each person’s needs, including Systemic therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-based work, client-centered listening, and cognitive-behavioral tools.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on clear goals, skills to manage strong feelings, and finding patterns in relationships that affect day-to-day life. Darice emphasizes strengths and practical steps over blame. Clients can expect a respectful, nonjudgmental space where the therapist listens first and then introduces tools that match the issue at hand.
Work may include identifying unhelpful thinking, building emotional skills, and exploring how family or partner patterns shape current problems. The approach can include short skills practice and longer conversational work. Darice has guided people through a wide range of concerns, from addiction and major life changes to body image and caregiver stress.
She supports people who are navigating relationship problems, parenting strains, or the fallout of trauma and loss. Her work centers on collaboration and gradual progress. Background and approach: Darice earned graduate degrees from Georgia State University in counseling and marriage and family therapy and holds LPC credentials in Georgia and Missouri.

Online support
Therapeutic approaches that translate well online
Systemic therapy looks at patterns between people and how relationships affect behavior. Online sessions can help identify recurring family or partner interactions and test new ways of relating in daily life. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and values-guided action. It teaches simple exercises to reduce avoidance and build habits that reflect what matters most. Attachment-Based Therapy centers on how early bonds shape current connections and helps people rethink how they form closeness and safety in relationships.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to try methods that fit their goals and preferences, adjusting techniques as progress is tracked. This is a team process that emphasizes clear goals and regular check-ins to see what helps.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction for deeper conversation and relationship work. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone needs a shorter check-in. Live chat and text-based messaging support ongoing coaching, brief updates, or mood tracking between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives, support people in different states, and continue work after life changes.
