Dr. Corlissa Wilson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia with 25 years of experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, parenting, and related family issues.

Her style is straightforward and goal-oriented. She works alongside people to identify problems and set clear goals. Sessions often include practical techniques and short activities to try between meetings.
Dr. Wilson uses a mix of approaches to suit the person in front of her. She draws on client-centered methods to listen and understand each person’s priorities. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help change unhelpful thinking and Solution-Focused Therapy to build concrete steps forward.
She has a long history in school counseling and private practice. That background informs her work with parenting and blended family challenges, caregiver stress, and adolescent grief. She has run grief groups and taught counseling courses at the university level.
People can expect direct suggestions, homework-style activities, and focused conversations about what to try next. The emphasis is on practical change and manageable steps that fit a busy life. Dr. Wilson’s experience includes work with divorce and separation, panic and post-traumatic stress, and issues such as forgiveness, hospice and end-of-life concerns, and seasonal mood shifts.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Dr. Wilson uses client-centered methods that prioritize listening and the client’s own goals. This approach helps clarify what matters most at home and what changes a person wants to try. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and is useful for anxiety, panic, depression, and stress. Solution-Focused Therapy emphasizes small, practical steps and short-term goals to create measurable change.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Session logistics should be confirmed before booking since specific formats are not listed here. Ask which online session options are currently offered when you begin. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and remove travel time so sessions can happen between other commitments. The focus remains on practical tools and actions that can be used in everyday life.
