About Lisa

Lisa Raley is a licensed clinical social worker (LICSW) with 16 years of clinical experience who takes a holistic, strength-based approach to therapy. She understands people as composed of interrelated physical, mental, emotional, spiritual, and social strengths, and she looks for ways to support each of those areas when life becomes overwhelming or imbalanced.

When one or more of these kinds of strengths weakens due to internal or external pressures, symptoms such as depression, anxiety, or other stress-related difficulties can emerge. Lisa focuses on helping clients identify existing resources within themselves and cultivating new skills to restore balance. Her work emphasizes resilience, practical coping strategies, and building the capacities that lead to a greater sense of wholeness.

Through collaborative conversation and tailored interventions, she guides people toward rebalancing their lives so they feel stronger and more integrated. As an LICSW - a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker - she combines clinical training with a compassionate, strengths-oriented perspective to support clients through life transitions and persistent challenges.

Online Approaches That Support Real-Life Change

Lisa Raley frequently uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in her work. ACT focuses on helping people accept difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to actions that match their values - a helpful approach for stress, anxiety, and life transitions. CBT breaks down unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and teaches practical strategies to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning. She also integrates elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) when emotion regulation and interpersonal effectiveness are priorities, offering skills for managing intense feelings and improving relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Lisa collaborates with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She adjusts techniques over time so therapy remains relevant and useful.

Online therapy with Lisa can take place through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for busy schedules, caregiving responsibilities, and geographic constraints. These options make it easier to attend regular sessions, practice skills between meetings, and maintain continuity of care with licensed professionals and therapists who support each client’s progress.
