Alice Congdon , LPCC

Alice Congdon is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC) in Minnesota with 13 years of experience in the helping professions. She has worked in homes, schools, workplaces, inpatient and outpatient settings and brings that variety into how she supports people. Her main areas of work include depression, anxiety, addictions, relationship conflict, and coping with life changes. She also lists parenting, family concerns, grief, trauma and a range of other issues she can address.

Alice uses practical, goal-focused methods in session. She often draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused approaches to connect insight with daily steps. She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills, Existential ideas, Motivational Interviewing, and mindfulness practices when those fit the situation.

In conversation she helps people break problems into manageable parts. Together she and the client set short- and long-term goals and pick small, measurable actions to try between sessions. Her experience with chemical dependency settings and K-12 schools informs how she approaches addiction, grief, and adjustment problems.

She emphasises the person’s own expertise about their life and works collaboratively to choose interventions. The therapist role she describes is practical and direct - clarifying goals, teaching skills, and checking progress. Sessions aim to increase the client’s ability to handle stress, improve relationships, and manage symptoms that interfere with daily life.

Alice offers evening video and phone sessions and provides messaging and live chat during morning and afternoon times. Prospective clients should confirm current session options when scheduling.
