About Malisha

Malisha Webber is an Illinois Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) with 11 years of professional experience. She works with stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, depression, and coping with life changes. Malisha uses straightforward, practical approaches in sessions and guides people through clear steps to address current problems.

In sessions she focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and testing small changes. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to map thought patterns and habits. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills, attachment-based ideas, and mindfulness tools when those approaches fit the issue.

People can expect concrete strategies for managing intense feelings, improving communication, and handling conflict. Work often includes short exercises, homework to try between sessions, and skills practice aimed at everyday situations. The emphasis is on things someone can try and then evaluate for usefulness.

Her background includes over a decade of clinical work in Illinois settings. Malisha uses that experience to balance skill-building with space to talk about painful events. She helps people name patterns like abandonment, guilt, shame, or isolation and then take stepwise action to reduce distress.

Sessions also address practical life concerns such as caregiving strain, separation and divorce, commitment worries, and finding clearer life direction. People who want clear structure and a skills-based approach will find sessions focused on measurable steps and ongoing problem solving.

How her approaches translate to online work

Malisha uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice thoughts and test small behavior changes. CBT sessions online can focus on practical tools like thought records, activity planning, and step-by-step exposure tasks that can be practiced between meetings.

She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to clarify values and create actions that align with those values. ACT in remote sessions tends to include short experiential exercises and values-based goal setting. Attachment-Based Therapy is used to look at patterns in relationships and to build different ways of relating; online conversations can map those patterns and rehearse new communication steps.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will collaborate with the client to choose methods that match the person’s needs, goals, and preferences rather than assuming one method fits all. That collaborative step helps decide which tools to use in sessions and for practice between meetings.

The practical benefits of online sessions include fitting meetings into a busy schedule and avoiding travel time. Please confirm current session options before booking, as formats are listed during sign-up. Online work can make it easier to bring learned skills into daily life by practicing between sessions and checking progress with the therapist.
