About Alisha

Alisha Ellis helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, or big life changes. She meets clients where they are and focuses on practical steps to make day-to-day life more manageable. Alisha presents herself as steady and supportive while people sort through what matters most to them.

She uses straightforward listening and questions to help clients notice unhelpful thinking and patterns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, is part of the approach she uses to identify thoughts and try different responses. Narrative Therapy is also used to help people reframe the stories they tell about themselves and their challenges.

Alisha has eight years of clinical experience and holds the credential Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, along with CSW. She is licensed in Georgia and draws on experience helping people with workplace stress, career concerns, social anxiety, and caregiver strain. She also supports people facing chronic illness or disability and those coping with loneliness or searching for life purpose.

Sessions focus on concrete strategies, clearer thinking, and small changes that add up over time. She encourages people to try new ways of responding to stress and to track what helps. The tone in sessions is direct but compassionate, with an emphasis on practical problem solving.

If you are in Georgia and want someone who uses CBT and narrative ideas to address anxiety, grief, or life transitions, she may be a fit. Please confirm current session options before scheduling.

How CBT and Narrative Work in Online Therapy

Alisha uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify simple links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and to test small changes that reduce distress. CBT is useful for anxiety, stress, and workplace or social worries because it focuses on practical steps and short exercises.

Narrative Therapy helps people examine the stories they tell about themselves and rewrite those stories to reflect values and strengths. This approach often helps with grief, life purpose, and self-esteem by shifting how a problem fits into a persons life story.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences, and adjust plans as needs change. Clients are invited to discuss what feels most helpful and to try different techniques over time.

Confirm current session options before booking, as specific formats are not listed in the biography. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people work with a licensed professional from wherever they are in Georgia without having to rearrange a whole day.
