Evidence-Based Support, Made Flexible Online
JaLisa Giles uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help clients move from feeling stuck to making practical changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on noticing unhelpful thought patterns and building coping strategies that can support day-to-day stress, anxiety, and low mood. Strength-Based Therapy highlights existing resilience and skills, helping clients reconnect with what is already working and build momentum during life transitions. Psychodynamic Therapy brings attention to deeper patterns and past experiences that may be shaping emotions, relationships, or self-esteem in the present.Finding the right approach is part of the process. JaLisa works collaboratively with clients to clarify goals, talk through what has or has not helped before, and adjust the focus based on needs and preferences. The work is designed to feel like a real conversation with clear direction, not a one-size-fits-all script.
Online therapy makes it easier to get support in a way that fits real life. Sessions can happen through video calls or phone sessions, with additional options like live chat or text-based messaging. This flexibility can be especially helpful for busy schedules, shifting energy levels, or times when clients want support between sessions.
