About Lisa Raley

Lisa Raley is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) with 16 years of experience helping clients navigate stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family issues, addictions, trauma, and a wide range of life challenges. She practices from a holistic, strength-based perspective, viewing each person as a blend of physical, mental, emotional, spiritual, and social resources that together shape wellbeing.

When one or more of those areas weakens because of internal struggles or external pressures, symptoms such as anxiety, low mood, or stress-related problems can emerge. Raley’s approach centers on identifying existing capacities and cultivating new skills so clients can restore balance across those areas of life. She emphasizes practical, achievable strategies that build resilience and support lasting change.

In sessions she focuses on helping clients rediscover inner strengths and develop tools to re-balance daily living. Her work aims to move people from feeling depleted to feeling more whole and steady, with an emphasis on realistic goals and compassionate, grounded guidance.

Many people wonder whether working with a therapist remotely can truly help. For a range of common concerns - including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, and life transitions - online therapy has been found to offer outcomes comparable to traditional in-person care for many individuals.

One major benefit is flexibility. Clients can connect with licensed professionals in the format that best suits their schedules and comfort level - via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. That adaptability makes it easier to access consistent support without rearranging work, family, or other commitments.

Licensed professionals provide structured therapeutic approaches through these remote formats, and clients can change therapists if they feel a different fit would be more helpful. For many people, remote therapy provides a practical, effective route to getting support while maintaining daily responsibilities.
