About Alisha

Alisha Ellis is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with eight years of clinical experience in Georgia. She helps people who are facing stress, anxiety, grief, self-esteem struggles, career difficulties, and life changes. She also focuses on caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, isolation, issues around purpose, veteran and armed forces concerns, social anxiety, and workplace problems.

Alisha uses straightforward conversation and structured techniques to notice unhelpful thoughts and habits. She works with clients to name thoughts that get in the way and to try different ways of responding. Sessions aim to be practical and focused on what a person wants to change in daily life.

Her background includes social work practice across different settings, and she holds the credentials LCSW and CSW. Alisha draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to map links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. She also uses Narrative Therapy to help people reframe life stories and identify strengths that matter to them.

In sessions she tends to set clear goals and small experiments clients can practice between meetings. That might include tracking a worry pattern, testing a new behavior at work, or writing about a painful event in a different way. The work is gradual and practical, with visible steps people can try.

People who reach out typically want concrete strategies for coping and clearer ways to move forward. To begin, visitors are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the site's booking flow.

Using CBT and Narrative Methods in Online Sessions

Alisha commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thought patterns and test small behavior changes. CBT sessions often involve tracking thoughts, setting brief experiments to try between meetings, and reviewing what changed. Narrative Therapy is used to look at personal stories and to rewrite how a person makes sense of difficult events, which can help with grief, purpose, and self-image.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will collaborate with each client to decide whether CBT, Narrative Therapy, or a mix will best fit their goals and preferences. That conversation helps set clear short-term goals and practical steps to try between sessions.

The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let people join from wherever they are based in Georgia. Licensed professionals can use these formats to keep therapy practical and focused on daily life challenges.
