About Alisha

Alisha Liljegrenolsson is a licensed clinical professional counselor (LCPC) practicing in Montana who focuses on helping people navigate stress, anxiety, and relationship concerns. She supports clients facing challenges such as sleep disruption, self-esteem struggles, career transitions, compassion fatigue, and intimacy-related issues, drawing on six years of clinical experience.

Background and approach

Her practice also addresses a wide range of related concerns including attachment and abandonment issues, body image, caregiving stress, and coping with natural or human-caused disaster. Alisha blends evidence-based methods like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and Client-Centered Therapy with tools such as EMDR and mindfulness practices to tailor care to each person’s needs.

She aims to create an open, nonjudgmental therapeutic environment where thoughts and feelings can be explored and practical strategies developed. Prospective clients can expect collaborative work toward clearer priorities, improved coping skills, and actionable steps for daily life.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Alisha draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify unhelpful thinking patterns and build specific skills for managing anxiety, stress, sleep issues, and daily challenges. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is used to explore values, increase psychological flexibility, and develop practical ways to move toward meaningful goals even when difficult emotions are present. Client-Centered Therapy provides a supportive, empathic foundation where the client's perspective guides the pace and focus of work.

Finding the right approach is part of the collaborative process. The therapist works with each person to determine which methods fit their needs and preferences, combining techniques when helpful and adjusting strategies over time based on progress and feedback.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexible options for scheduling and communication. These formats can make it easier to maintain continuity of care around work, caregiving, or geographic constraints while allowing therapists and clients to focus on practical skills, emotional processing, and real-life goals.
