About Lisa

Dr. Lisa Zaslove is a California psychologist with decades of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, anger, and life changes. She writes plainly and focuses on creating an open space where clients can speak honestly about difficult emotions. Her approach centers on practical conversation and steady support rather than jargon or pressure.

With 35 years of clinical experience as a CA Psychologist (license 13358), Dr. Zaslove has worked with people facing depression, grief, trauma and abuse, and addiction concerns. She also helps those dealing with eating issues, bipolar mood challenges, and compassion fatigue. Communication problems, guilt and shame, isolation, and social anxiety are among other areas she addresses.

Her sessions aim to let people name what is happening and find clear steps forward. She encourages small, realistic changes that fit everyday life. Conversations focus on understanding patterns and trying out different ways of responding to stress, anger, or relationship strain.

Dr. Zaslove emphasizes partnership in therapy. She supports people as they set goals and test new skills between meetings. Progress is tracked in simple, concrete ways so clients can see what is changing.

She practices in California and works in English. To start, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to therapist availability. The therapy subscription can be canceled at any time, and costs vary with location and scheduling factors.

How evidence-based techniques are used in online care

Dr. Zaslove uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change. One common approach she applies helps people identify unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, then practice new responses to stress and anger. This method supports issues like anxiety, depression, and anger by breaking problems into manageable steps.

Another frequently used approach concentrates on skills training for coping and emotion regulation. Clients learn concrete strategies to calm intense feelings, manage cravings in addiction, and improve communication during conflict. These techniques are taught in simple, repeatable exercises that clients can try between sessions.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and try different strategies if needed. This collaborative process helps shape a plan that fits the person’s day-to-day life.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know what formats are available. Online therapy can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow more consistent check-ins. It can also allow shorter or more frequent touchpoints when life gets intense, which many people find useful for making steady progress.
