Lisset Pickens, LPC

Lisset Pickens is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Georgia with 15 years of experience. She focuses on relationship concerns, family and parenting challenges, and issues that affect self-esteem and motivation. She also helps people who are facing career stress and life transitions.

She aims to treat each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. Conversations are tailored to what matters most to the client, and treatment plans are built around specific goals. Sessions emphasize clear, practical steps alongside space to process feelings.

Her approach blends methods that help people change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors with ways to deepen emotional connection. That mix is useful for anxiety, depression, communication problems, and intimacy-related struggles. It also supports people navigating separation, blended family adjustments, or caregiver stress.

Lisset uses Client-Centered work to listen closely and reflect what clients need in the moment. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help change patterns that get in the way of goals. Emotionally-Focused and Solution-Focused tools are used when improving attachment and finding practical next steps are priorities.

She encourages a collaborative process where the client’s priorities guide each session. Taking the first step can feel hard, and she acknowledges that courage while helping clients map a path forward.

How these approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and responding to what matters most to the client. In online sessions this means the therapist follows the client’s pace, reflects concerns, and helps identify immediate priorities. It works well for building trust and clarifying goals in relationship or family conversations.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors. Online sessions can include short exercises and homework that help reduce anxiety, manage depression, and change patterns that affect work and relationships.

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) looks at how people relate emotionally and where connection breaks down. When attachment or intimacy is a primary concern, EFT techniques help clients name emotions, understand patterns, and try new ways of relating.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will review goals, ask about what has or hasn’t helped before, and collaborate on a plan that fits the client’s needs and preferences. That process helps decide which methods to emphasize over time.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Licensed professionals can use online work to maintain momentum between in-person visits or when life circumstances make in-person meetings difficult.
