About Lisset
Lisset Pickens is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia with 15 years of clinical experience. She helps people with relationship concerns, family and parenting issues, self-esteem, career challenges, stress, anxiety, and intimacy-related problems. She also addresses depression, coping with life changes, and coaching-related goals.
Her work focuses on clear, practical conversation. She listens for patterns that create repeating conflict. Then she helps people try small changes to test what works. Sessions are direct and aimed at improving day-to-day relationships and routines.
Pickens uses tools from several evidence-informed approaches. She draws on client-centered methods to keep the work person-focused. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors. Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps when relationship emotion is the central problem.
She also brings solution-focused and existential ideas to sessions. That means setting concrete goals, and looking at meaning and values when people face big life changes. Topics she frequently addresses include attachment concerns, blended family issues, caregiver stress, communication breakdowns, and separation or divorce-related transitions.
Her style aims to be straightforward and respectful. She invites clients to set practical goals and track small steps. To start, a prospective client completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules a first session through the See online therapy options button.
Therapeutic approaches for online sessions
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and following what matters most to the client. It gives space for people to name goals and for the therapist to reflect back what they hear. This approach helps when someone needs clarity about values, parenting priorities, or relationship concerns.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact. Sessions using CBT identify unhelpful thought patterns and test small behavioral changes to reduce anxiety, stress, or mood problems. It is useful for practical symptom management and for changing daily habits that affect family life.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) concentrates on the emotional interaction in close relationships. It helps people understand attachment patterns and changes how they respond to one another in tense moments. EFT is often applied when relationship emotion and closeness are the main problems.
Finding the right approach is usually collaborative. The therapist will discuss options and adapt methods based on a client's goals, preferences, and the problems they bring. That conversation helps shape a plan that fits a client's time and needs rather than sticking to one single method.
The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, cut travel time, or allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Discussing session length and timing during the match and first appointment helps make therapy practical for everyday life.
