About Lisa

Dr. Lisa Rasheed welcomes adults seeking practical support for sleep and rest concerns as well as stress, anxiety, grief, and life transitions. She is a licensed clinical social worker with nearly three decades of experience helping people aged 18 to 99 who are facing depression, caregiver strain, relationship stress, or chronic illness. Her style is warm and direct, and she focuses on building a collaborative relationship to work toward clear goals.

She uses approaches that include client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused work. Sessions are meant to help people learn new skills, reframe unhelpful thoughts, and practice techniques that can improve daily routines and rest. Dr. Rasheed describes the client as the expert in their own life and draws on each person’s strengths to guide the process.

Her background includes work in inpatient and outpatient settings, primary care, medical specialty units, and private practice. That range informs how she supports people with complex or multiple concerns, including co-morbidity and dual diagnoses. She also has experience addressing aging and caregiver issues, hospice and end-of-life counseling, and veteran-related challenges.

People can expect a therapist who is compassionate, candid, and occasionally uses humor when helpful. The aim is practical progress: clearer thinking, better coping skills, and small changes that add up to a more satisfying everyday life. To begin, clients follow the site’s intake steps to connect and schedule a match.

Approaches that translate well to online work

Client-centered therapy puts the client's perspective first and focuses on understanding what matters most to the person. It helps people feel heard and clarifies goals for better sleep, coping, or life changes. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical exercises to change patterns that disrupt rest and daily functioning. Mindfulness therapy teaches attention and breathing techniques that can reduce rumination and improve sleep onset.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work together with each person to decide which methods fit best based on their goals, daily routines, and preferences. That collaborative plan can include trying techniques in session and adapting them between meetings.

The profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Many clients find online sessions helpful because they can fit therapy into a work break, avoid travel time, or choose a quieter time of day for focused practice. Online work also makes it easier to try brief check-ins or skill-focused visits when life gets busy. Discussing practical scheduling needs up front helps make sessions a realistic part of everyday life.
