About Lisa
Dr. Lisa Rasheed is a licensed clinical social worker who helps adults manage stress, anxiety, grief, ADHD, and life transitions. She draws on nearly three decades of practice to offer steady, practical support.
Her style is direct but warm, and she centers each conversation on what the client wants to change. She has worked across inpatient, outpatient, primary care, and independent practice settings. That range means she is familiar with health-related challenges, caregiving strain, and co-occurring concerns like depression or addiction.
Background and approach
She frames problems so they feel more manageable and focuses on small, usable steps. Her approach combines client-centered listening with evidence-informed tools. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people spot unhelpful thinking and change behaviors.
Mindfulness techniques build better attention and stress management. Motivational Interviewing and Solution-Focused work support clear goals and practical plans. Dr.
Rasheed earned a Doctor of Social Work in Advanced Clinical Social Work and Supervision and a PhD in Educational Policy Studies. She also holds a Master of Social Work with a health and mental health focus. Those credentials reflect long-term clinical and teaching roles rather than a single setting.
Sessions are aimed at making problems less overwhelming and increasing day-to-day functioning. She often helps people learn new coping skills, organize priorities, and repair communication patterns. The tone in sessions is compassionate, straightforward, and occasionally light.
Dr. Rasheed practices in Georgia and conducts therapy in English. People seeking help can expect a collaborative process that starts with immediate concerns and builds toward practical goals.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Client-Centered Therapy starts by listening to each person's priorities and building a plan around their goals. It helps when someone needs support to make decisions, boost confidence, or clarify values.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying patterns of thinking and behavior that make problems worse. It uses practical exercises and short homework tasks to shift thinking and improve mood or functioning, which can help with anxiety, depression, and ADHD-related challenges.
Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce stress and improve focus. These techniques can be used between sessions to steady attention and manage reactivity.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs and preferences and together they will try methods that fit the client's goals. This collaborative selection allows adjustments over time based on what helps most.
Online formats offer flexibility to fit therapy into busy lives. Video calls let people use visual cues and a fuller conversation, while phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for quick reflections, homework review, or staying connected between sessions. These options make it easier to keep momentum and practice new skills consistently.
