About Alisha
Alisha Dennis-Brinson is a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor with 11 years of experience. She practices in Ohio and speaks English. Her approach centers on the person in front of her and on building practical skills to manage everyday struggles like stress, anxiety, depression, and ADHD.
She uses straightforward tools to help people notice their strengths and make small changes that add up. Sessions focus on what each person needs most, so plans are shaped around clear, achievable goals.
Background and approach
The tone is warm and accepting while staying focused on real steps forward. Alisha has worked with people facing trauma, substance use concerns, grief, career and relationship strain, and the challenges of life transitions. She helps clients address sleep and eating problems, anger and self-esteem, and issues around intimacy and parenting.
She also supports those coping with compassion fatigue and bipolar mood concerns. In meetings she emphasizes collaboration. Clients and therapist build an individualized plan together.
That plan may include coping skills, behavior changes, or practical strategies for daily life. Progress is tracked against the goals the person sets. Starting therapy is often the hardest part.
Alisha aims to make each session clear and manageable. She encourages questions, checks in about what’s working, and adjusts the plan as needed to fit each person’s life. Her work is grounded in evidence-based therapeutic techniques and a client-centered style.
She welcomes people who want practical help for stress, relationships, addiction concerns, ADHD, and other common mental health problems.
Approaches that guide online sessions
Alisha uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that are practical and focused on change. One approach emphasizes skill-building for managing strong emotions and daily stressors, teaching simple strategies clients can try between sessions to improve mood and focus. Another approach concentrates on processing difficult experiences and trauma with careful pacing, helping people reduce the impact of upsetting memories and move toward clearer daily functioning.Choosing the right approach is collaborative. The therapist and client review needs, goals, and what feels comfortable, then try methods that match those priorities. Plans are adjusted over time based on progress and feedback, so the work stays relevant and helpful.
Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging makes it easier to fit support into a busy life. Video helps when seeing facial cues matters, phone works well when bandwidth or camera use is difficult, live chat is useful for shorter check-ins, and text messaging suits people who prefer writing between sessions. These options provide flexibility to meet regularly and keep momentum while working on practical goals.
