About Lisset
Lisset Pickens is a Licensed Professional Counselor with 15 years of experience based in Georgia. She focuses on everyday pressures like relationship tension, parenting strain, work stress, anxiety, and low self-esteem. She aims to make starting therapy straightforward and respectful for people who are feeling stuck or overwhelmed.
Her style is warm and practical. She listens first and tailors conversations to each person's situation. Sessions are meant to be collaborative - clients set goals and she helps map steps to reach them.
Background and approach
In therapy she draws on methods that help people change unhelpful thoughts and patterns. She uses clear tools to address communication problems, commitment concerns, and issues tied to family history. She also helps people handle life changes, grief, and the fallout from separation or divorce.
Parents and caregivers will find help with blended family dynamics, fatherhood challenges, fertility stress, and caregiver burnout. She pays attention to attachment and control issues that can shape how people relate to partners and children. Lisset also works with people on career decisions and motivation.
Her approach blends short-term problem solving with deeper conversation when needed. She encourages small, achievable steps so progress feels real and manageable.

Therapeutic approaches and online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening with empathy and helping people find their own solutions. It is useful when someone wants a respectful space to talk through relationship and parenting concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors and offers concrete tools to reduce anxiety, manage stress, and improve confidence. Emotionally-Focused Therapy, or EFT, helps people name and shift emotional patterns that affect intimacy and family connections.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. Sessions may blend elements from different approaches so the plan matches what the client needs in the moment.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is good for face-to-face conversation and nonverbal cues. Phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a session needs to fit a break at work. Live chat or text messaging can support quick check-ins, tools practice, and ongoing coaching between longer sessions.
