JaLisa Giles

JaLisa Giles is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Texas with 8 years of experience supporting teens (15+) and adults who are feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, stress, depression, grief, or the pressure of major life changes. She works with clients who may feel stuck in self-doubt, questioning their direction, or trying to manage the day-to-day while carrying responsibilities that are hard to put into words.

Her style is straightforward, collaborative, and grounded in real conversation rather than scripted “therapy voice.” JaLisa prioritizes a client-centered experience that helps people feel seen and respected, with a particular passion for supporting people of color. Together, clients and therapist identify what is weighing most heavily, clarify goals, and build practical steps forward.

JaLisa integrates evidence-based therapeutic techniques including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Strength-Based Therapy, Psychodynamic Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing to support meaningful progress. Her work focuses on helping clients better understand patterns, strengthen coping skills, and reconnect with their own abilities and values. She also offers free consultations so prospective clients can share what they are looking for, talk through goals, and decide whether the fit feels right before moving ahead.
