About Miyisha

Miyisha Hollis is a licensed marriage and family therapist with nine years of practice in Nevada. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, addiction concerns, relationship and intimacy issues, and challenges around self-esteem. She also supports those dealing with grief, trauma and abuse, parenting strain, anger, and major life changes.

Hollis draws from several therapeutic methods and adapts her approach to each person. She starts by learning a client's core values and how they see themselves. Sessions focus on practical steps, clearer communication, and building skills to handle everyday pressures.

Her background includes work with people from many walks of life, including first responders and professional athletes, and with those affected by substance use and sexual identity concerns. She has particular experience addressing abandonment, blended family challenges, codependency, and issues tied to family of origin.

Therapy with Hollis often blends goal-focused techniques like solution-focused work and motivational interviewing with cognitive behavioral strategies and mindfulness practices. Conversations are aimed at improving coping, reducing symptoms, and making day-to-day life more manageable.

Clients can expect a collaborative, person-centered style that looks for realistic steps forward. The clinician emphasizes finding what fits each person instead of using a single method for everyone.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Client-centered work focuses on understanding each person's values and who they want to be. It helps guide what matters most in therapy and shapes practical goals.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect. It teaches skills for spotting unhelpful patterns and trying different actions to reduce anxiety or depression.

Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and awareness practices. These tools can help manage stress, reduce reactivity, and support coping with cravings or strong emotions.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist works with clients to choose methods that match their needs, goals, and preferences in a collaborative way. That might mean trying a few techniques and picking what fits best.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the available session formats before booking since the biography does not list specific options. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and remove travel time so appointments are simpler to keep. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT, mindfulness, and client-centered techniques to an online setting to focus on relevant skills and steady progress.
