I am a Clinical Social Worker licensed in Georgia with over five years of experience working as a therapist. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, substance abuse, LGBTQ+, career and relationship issues. I have also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse.
My counseling style is interactive and client-centered. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I take a solution-focused approach to counseling employing therapeutic models aimed at supporting positive change through strengths based counseling. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.
I know it can be hard to find a counselor who “gets it.” One key is to develop a trusting relationship through maintaining confidentiality, listening attentively and providing support for positive change. I find video sessions work best in establishing this relationship, and can interact with you in whatever manner you feel most comfortable.
I look forward to working with you!

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Dr. Delores Liston. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
Extremely helpful and positive experience so far! She has already in a short time helped me to make meaningful improvements to my life. I still have a long way to go but I'm excited to see what the future will hold!

I’ve been very lucky to be paired with a professional and extremely intuitive and knowledgeable and sensitive therapist. I’ve been a fan of Dr. Liston since day one. Even though starting therapy was a challenge it hasn’t felt difficult since starting better help. In the discipline of mental health Dr. Liston is well decorated and it shows. I just got the irony of their name and their profession. There is a lot of listening and coaching to make new behavior choices that are beneficial in the long term.

Dr. Liston not only let's me express myself in my own way, but she also gives me feedback and offers various solutions to my problems. She will assign task for me to work on during the week, and doesn't rush me to get them done, I can go at my own pace

Working with Dee has been such a great help to me. She’s really amazing at reminding me of the tools that I have in my life to ease my stress and anxiety while also providing me with ways to “think outside of the box” and learn new ways to approach my issues. I was matched with her when I first signed up for BetterHelp and it’s proven to be an excellent fit. I highly recommend this service!
