About Aaliyah
Aaliyah Rashad is an LMFT - Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in California with eight years of professional experience. She focuses on stress and anxiety, relationship concerns, self-esteem, depression, and coping with life changes. She works with clients who want clear, practical steps rather than vague talk.
She treats therapy as a collaborative process. Clients and she set concrete goals, notice unhelpful thoughts and habits, and try different ways of responding. Sessions include discussion and simple, practiceable skills to test between meetings.
Aaliyah uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) alongside mindfulness practices. CBT helps people identify thought patterns that keep problems going and then try alternative, more helpful responses. ACT focuses on values and committed action so people can take steps that matter even when emotions are difficult.
Her role is to guide and coach while clients remain the experts in their own lives. She often breaks tasks into manageable steps, tracks small changes, and adjusts plans when something does not work. This makes progress easier to notice.
People who prefer direct, structured work that emphasizes skills and real-life practice often find her approach useful. To begin, readers should choose the online therapy options, complete the short matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session. The subscription used for sessions can be canceled at any time.
How CBT and ACT are used in online sessions
Aaliyah uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and patterns, and then try different responses. CBT typically involves identifying specific thoughts, testing them with short experiments, and practicing alternatives between sessions. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on clarifying values and taking action toward those values even when feelings are uncomfortable; it helps with making choices that matter rather than getting stuck on mood. Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and together decide whether CBT, ACT, or a mix fits best. That collaborative process means the plan can change as needs evolve. The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, shorten commute time, and allow for brief check-ins when a full session is not needed. It can also let clients practice skills in their everyday settings and then review how those experiments went in the next meeting.Areas of expertise
