About Rasheda
Rasheda Long is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker who helps people manage stress, anxiety, anger, and life transitions. She focuses on building on strengths clients already have and on practical steps they can use between sessions. She prefers a straightforward and compassionate style.
Sessions tend to focus on clear goals and skills you can practice in daily life. Rasheda encourages people to name what matters most to them and then work toward it one step at a time.
Background and approach
Rasheda has five years of experience in mental health, including school-based work and community mental health. That background means she has worked with a wide range of concerns such as ADHD, mood disorders, grief, and confidence issues. She draws on techniques that match the person and the situation rather than using a single fixed method.
Her approach mixes client-centered conversations with evidence-informed tools. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and change behavior. She also uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy ideas to help people understand and express strong feelings.
Motivational Interviewing and Narrative Therapy are part of her toolkit when people need help clarifying goals and reshaping the stories they tell about themselves. Rasheda practices in Alabama and conducts sessions in English. She offers several online formats so people can choose what fits their routine and comfort.
She aims to be practical, direct, and supportive while helping people move toward the life they want.

Therapeutic approaches and online care
Rasheda blends practical methods to help people manage emotions and make changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify patterns of thinking that make stress or anger worse and teaches concrete skills to change those thoughts and related behaviors. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) supports people in naming and expressing strong feelings so they can respond differently in relationships and personal challenges. Motivational Interviewing helps when someone feels stuck or unsure about change by drawing out goals and strengthening personal motivation.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Rasheda treats the selection of methods as a collaborative process, checking in about what feels useful and adjusting plans based on your needs, goals, and preferences. The aim is to find tools that fit your life and pace.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video calls allow more visual connection for deeper conversation. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in works best. Live chat and text-based messaging can support more frequent, brief check-ins and skill practice between longer sessions. These options let people fit therapy into work, school, or caregiving schedules while keeping focus on progress and practical change.
