About Lisa

Lisa Raley is a licensed clinical social worker with 16 years of professional experience helping people restore balance in their lives. She holds the LICSW credential - Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker - which denotes specialized training and clinical practice in social work. Lisa practices from a holistic, strength-based perspective, viewing each person as composed of physical, mental, emotional, spiritual, and social resources that influence wellbeing.

When one or more of those areas become depleted due to life stressors, relationships, or past hurts, symptoms such as anxiety, depression, or other stress-related concerns can emerge. Lisa collaborates with clients to uncover existing strengths and cultivate new ones, guiding practical steps to re-balance daily life and build resilience. Her work focuses on helping individuals reconnect with what sustains them so they can move forward with greater stability and purpose.

Clients can expect a warm, professional approach that emphasizes practical tools alongside personal growth, with an emphasis on discovering and strengthening inner resources to support lasting change.

Therapeutic Approaches for Online Care

Lisa Raley commonly draws from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to guide online work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and then commit to actions that align with personal values - it can help with anxiety, depression, and life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behavioral patterns through practical exercises and skills, which is useful for stress, mood concerns, and coping with everyday challenges.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Lisa works collaboratively with each client to determine what methods fit their needs, goals, and personal preferences. She adjusts strategies over time so therapy remains relevant and effective for the individual.

Online therapy with Lisa is offered by video call, phone session, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, attend sessions from home or another convenient location, and integrate therapeutic work into a busy life while working with licensed professionals and therapists who can tailor support to each client.
