About Lisset
Lisset Pickens is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia with 15 years of clinical experience. She focuses on practical, down-to-earth help for people dealing with relationship strain, parenting challenges, self-esteem concerns, career stress, anxiety, and life transitions. She keeps sessions respectful and straightforward.
Conversations are tailored to each person's needs and paced to match readiness. Lisset aims to make the work feel useful rather than academic, pairing real-life strategies with space to reflect.
How Lisset works
Her approach often centers on strengthening how people connect and communicate. That can mean looking at attachment patterns, blended family dynamics, or problems that come up after separation. She also supports people facing caregiver stress, fertility worries, fatherhood questions, and the emotional weight of big life changes.
When worries show up as low mood, emptiness, or trouble making decisions, she blends goal-focused tools with deeper conversations about meaning and values. Solution-focused steps are used alongside cognitive techniques to shift unhelpful thinking and behavior. Lisset works with people on intimacy-related issues, commitment concerns, and forgiveness work.
She also helps with practical coping after disasters and with dependent or controlling behavior patterns. Every plan is adjusted to what a person wants to change and how fast they want to move.

Online support options
Approaches that translate well to online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and building a trusting relationship so people feel heard and can guide the work. It helps with self-esteem, relationship concerns, and deciding life priorities.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, teaches practical skills to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It is useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and improving day-to-day coping.
Emotionally-Focused Therapy, or EFT, concentrates on emotional patterns in close relationships and changing how partners or individuals connect. It can help with intimacy-related issues and commitment concerns.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before, then suggest an approach to try together. Plans are adjusted as the work progresses so methods match real needs.
Online sessions can fit into busy lives because they offer video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is good for face-to-face conversation, phone can be simpler when bandwidth is limited, live chat and text help with quick check-ins or ongoing coaching. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, caregiving, or travel schedules.
