About Lisa
Dr. Lisa Zaslove is a California psychologist with 35 years of experience helping people navigate stress, anxiety, addiction, and mood struggles. She uses practical, evidence-based methods and a calm, direct style to guide clients toward clearer thinking and better day-to-day coping.
Her practice notes parenting as a focus area and she helps people manage the pressures that come with caregiving and family roles. In sessions she aims to create a straightforward space where people can say what they think and feel without judgment.
Background and approach
Conversations focus on real problems and concrete steps - small changes that make a difference at home and at work. She also addresses relationship strain, eating concerns, grief, and trauma reactions with attention to what is most pressing for each person. Dr.
Zaslove brings decades of clinical experience to each meeting. That background helps her tailor approaches to a person’s situation instead of using a one-size-fits-all plan. She listens for patterns in behavior and thought, then suggests practical strategies to interrupt unhelpful cycles and build new habits.
Her work includes support for anger, self-esteem, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and compassion fatigue. Additional focus areas include communication problems, forgiveness, guilt and shame, loneliness, life purpose, and social anxiety. She explains options clearly so people can choose what feels most useful.
Sessions are offered in English and are available in several formats including video calls, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging. Dr. Zaslove emphasizes steady progress through collaborative goal-setting and regular check-ins to track change.

How evidence-based approaches work online
Dr. Zaslove uses well-established, evidence-based techniques that focus on thoughts, behaviors, and practical skills. Cognitive approaches help people notice and change unhelpful thinking patterns that fuel anxiety and depression; sessions teach simple tools to reframe thoughts and test them in daily life. Behavioral methods break problems into manageable actions, such as graded exposure for social anxiety or step-by-step routines for mood and energy management.Finding the right approach is part of the work. She collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. Over time she adjusts techniques based on what helps and what feels realistic for the client to use between sessions.
Online therapy offers flexibility for people juggling busy schedules or caregiving duties. Video calls let the therapist and client use face-to-face interaction even when miles apart. Phone sessions or shorter live chat check-ins can fit into a work break or a brief window during the day. Text-based messaging supports ongoing reflection and quick follow-ups without needing to be on camera. These options make it easier to maintain regular contact and apply strategies in everyday life.
