Dr. Lisa Rasheed, LICSW, LCSW

Dr. Lisa Rasheed is a licensed independent clinical social worker with 29 years of practice experience. She holds LICSW and LCSW credentials and works with adults across the lifespan on everyday and complex problems. Her areas of concern include stress, anxiety, grief, depression, relationship and family matters, blended family issues, caregiving strain, and life transitions.

She has worked in inpatient and outpatient settings, primary care, medical specialty units, and private practice. That range means she is familiar with medical and caregiving stress as well as mental health diagnoses. Clients have come to her for help with bereavement, low self-esteem, addiction concerns, sleep problems, anger, and vocational stress.

In sessions she treats the person as the expert in their own life. She uses methods that focus on current problems and on building practical skills. Conversations are meant to identify goals, try new coping strategies, and track what works in day-to-day life.

Her approach draws on cognitive behavioral ideas to change unhelpful thinking and behavior. She also uses client-centered techniques, motivational interviewing, mindfulness, and solution-focused work to support short-term goals and clearer decision making. The emphasis is on straightforward tools that can be applied to household routines and relationship patterns.

Dr. Rasheed trained in social work and educational policy and completed a Doctor of Social Work in advanced clinical social work and supervision. She supports adults managing transitions such as caregiving, divorce, or integrating new household roles. To begin, readers are encouraged to confirm current session options before scheduling.
