About Lisa
Dr. Lisa Rasheed helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by parenting stress, life changes, grief, anxiety, or low self-esteem. She writes plainly and works to make things manageable, one step at a time.

Background and approach
That range means she is familiar with medical and caregiving stress, chronic illness, hospice and end-of-life concerns, and the practical strains that come with aging and caregiving roles. Her practice combines approaches that focus on the person and on concrete change.
She uses client-centered work to build on strengths, cognitive behavioral strategies to change unhelpful thinking and behavior, mindfulness to reduce reactivity, motivational interviewing to support change, and solution-focused steps to set small goals. Sessions move between listening, skill-building, and short-term goal work. Dr.
Rasheed holds a Doctor of Social Work - Advanced Clinical Social Work and Supervision from the University of Tennessee-Knoxville and a PhD in Educational Policy Studies from Georgia State University. She also has a Master of Social Work from Clark Atlanta University. Her credentials are LICSW and LCSW.
People who seek her help often want practical tools and steady guidance. She emphasizes a collaborative relationship where the client’s values and strengths guide what happens next. If a parent needs help managing stress, improving sleep, or working through grief, she helps create a clear, manageable plan.

How Lisa's Approaches Work Online
Client-centered therapy focuses on the person and their strengths, giving space for concerns to be heard while building from what already works. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches concrete strategies to reduce anxiety, improve sleep, and change unhelpful patterns. Mindfulness therapy helps people notice reactions without acting on them and can lower stress and reactivity during parenting challenges.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist listens to your goals and tries methods that fit your needs, then adjusts based on what helps most. Many people use a mix of approaches so sessions balance listening, skill practice, and short-term problem solving.
Online therapy offers flexibility for busy parents and adults. Video calls allow face-to-face work and guided exercises. Phone sessions can be a simpler option when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging let people send updates, try brief coaching, or get timely support between sessions. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into work, school, or caregiving schedules.
