About Lisa
Dr. Lisa Davis is a Licensed Professional Counselor with 14 years of clinical experience. She practices in Georgia and brings a calm, straightforward approach to sessions.
Her background and credentials include a PhD in Counseling and advanced degrees in counseling and communications, and she uses that training to support adults facing hard life moments. She works with people dealing with depression, anxiety, stress, grief, addiction, trauma, and anger. Parenting is one listed focus, and she helps parents talk through parenting concerns alongside other life stresses.
Background and approach
Her work also covers relationship and attachment questions, career strain, and issues like codependency and communication problems. Her style is direct and warm. She aims to meet people where they are and to create a nonjudgmental space for honest conversation.
Sessions emphasize practical steps, skill-building, and clearer decision making rather than long lectures or jargon. Dr. Davis draws on several therapeutic approaches, including acceptance-based strategies, cognitive-behavioral tools, and client-centered listening.
She helps clients develop coping skills, manage strong emotions, and set realistic goals for change. Those dealing with caregiver stress, blended family concerns, or adoption and foster care issues can bring those topics into work together. People who prefer a collaborative, goal-focused counselor often find her approach useful.
She encourages gradual growth and small, sustainable changes. Her aim is to help clients leave sessions with clearer next steps and more confidence in facing life changes.

Approaches that work well online
Dr. Davis uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice their values and take small steps toward a meaningful life. ACT focuses on accepting difficult thoughts and committing to actions that match what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify unhelpful thinking patterns and replace them with practical strategies to reduce anxiety, depression, and stress. CBT offers concrete tools and short exercises people can use between sessions to track progress.Choosing the right approach is part of therapy. The therapist works collaboratively with each person to try methods that fit their goals and preferences. Together they review what helps, adjust techniques, and shape a plan that feels manageable over time.
Online sessions can be done by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video is useful for deeper conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be a better fit when bandwidth is low or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Text and live chat are helpful for brief check-ins, homework, and steady support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and keep work moving forward.
