Background and approach

Since moving to Mississippi in 2015 she has worked in child welfare, public schools, church ministry, Apple retail, and community mental health. Those varied roles shaped how she supports people now and gave her experience with relationship and family concerns as well as trauma and abuse. In sessions she keeps the space open and nonjudgmental.

She listens to practical problems like parenting strain, work stress, grief, or struggles with self esteem and impulsivity. She helps people set simple goals and practices they can try between meetings, such as new ways to manage anger, cope with life changes, or reduce anxiety symptoms.

Ja’Lise also draws on collaborative coaching skills when clients want to explore career direction, life purpose, or financial worries. She brings creativity from hobbies like music, writing, and design into the work when it helps people express themselves or build routines that feel meaningful. Her style is warm and direct.

She encourages honest conversation and small experiments. Taking a first step can feel hard, and she aims to make the process understandable and manageable for each person.

Online approaches that address anxiety and stress

Ja’Lise often draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to help people manage anxiety and strong emotions. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce worry and improve mood. DBT teaches practical skills for managing intense feelings, improving emotion regulation, and reducing impulsive reactions.

She also uses Motivational Interviewing when people want help finding motivation for change. That approach focuses on listening, building a person’s own reasons for change, and supporting steps that feel doable. Choosing the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process - she works with each person to decide what fits their goals, needs, and preferences and adjusts the plan as progress is made.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth or schedules vary. Live chat and text messaging offer shorter check-ins, quick skill reminders, and flexibility for busy days. These options make it easier to keep sessions regular and practical while fitting therapy into everyday life.
