About Delores
Dr. Delores Liston greets people with a calm, practical approach when anxiety and stress feel overwhelming. She is Dr.
Delores Liston, a licensed clinical social worker who brings ten years of clinical experience to sessions. She uses plain language and steady guidance so conversations stay focused and useful. She helps people facing anxiety, depression, addiction, grief, sleep problems, and relationship or career strain.
Multicultural concerns and LGBT-related issues are also within her practice focus.
Background and approach
She listens first, then builds a plan that fits each person's situation and goals. Her style is interactive and client-centered. That means sessions center on the client's priorities and strengths instead of one-size-fits-all techniques.
She blends solution-focused work with mindfulness and skills drawn from Dialectical Behavior Therapy to help people manage strong feelings and find workable changes. Sessions may include short practical tasks, skill practice, and focused conversation aimed at small measurable steps. Video sessions are often used to develop rapport, but phone, chat, and messaging options are available too.
The goal is steady progress rather than sudden fixes. Dr. Liston holds LCSW and CSW credentials and practices in Georgia.
She aims to create a respectful, nonjudgmental space where people can talk through hard moments and test new ways to cope.
Approaches that translate well to online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to what matters most to the client. It emphasizes empathy, respect, and shaping sessions around each person's goals, which works well in video and phone conversations.Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, provides concrete skills for managing strong emotions, improving relationships, and tolerating distress. Those skills can be taught and practiced during live sessions and reinforced through messaging or brief check-ins.
Finding the right fit is a collaborative process. The therapist will work together with the client to decide which approaches match their needs, goals, and comfort level. That choice can shift over time as progress and priorities change.
Online formats offer practical benefits for many people. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction that helps build rapport. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging let clients check in between sessions, use brief coaching, or follow up on skill practice. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to keep momentum between appointments.
