Background and approach
Over eight years she has helped people work through life transitions and build coping tools that fit daily life. Alisha combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with Narrative Therapy ideas. That means she will help a person notice unhelpful thinking patterns and also look at the stories they tell themselves.
Together these approaches help people reframe difficult events and try new ways of responding. She has worked with concerns like caregiver strain, chronic illness and pain, isolation, social anxiety, workplace stress, and questions about life purpose. In sessions she aims to be practical, direct, and empathetic so people can make steady progress.
Alisha is licensed as an LCSW and also holds a CSW credential. She practices in Georgia and conducts sessions in English. If someone wants focused help for anxiety or related stress, she offers concrete strategies and a collaborative style.
Approaches that guide online sessions
Alisha uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify and change thoughts and behaviors that keep anxiety and stress active. CBT sessions typically include noticing patterns, trying small experiments, and building practical skills for everyday life.She also draws on Narrative Therapy ideas, which help people examine the stories they tell about themselves and their problems. That work can free up new ways of understanding painful events and open space for different choices and actions.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process. She works with each person to decide what fits their goals and preferences, adjusting methods as progress is made. The therapist and client collaborate on what to try and reassess what is or isn't helpful.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video is useful for deeper conversational work, phone can be lower bandwidth, live chat and text are handy for brief check-ins or when writing helps clarify thoughts. These options make it easier to work therapy into a busy life and to keep momentum between sessions.
