About Liza

Liza White is a licensed mental health counselor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, addiction struggles, trauma and abuse, grief, and depression. She speaks plainly and aims to make the first steps toward change feel manageable for someone reaching out. Her approach centers on listening first and building trust so clients can talk without judgement.

With 12 years of experience, Liza focuses on creating an open space where thoughts and feelings are named and worked through. She supports people dealing with parenting strain, intimacy-related issues, anger, self-esteem problems, bipolar mood concerns, ADHD, and major life transitions.

Her work draws on client-centered methods that keep the person’s goals central. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills for emotion regulation when needed. Mindfulness practices and Motivational Interviewing are woven in to help with motivation and staying present.

Liza has experience with a broad set of specific concerns, including attachment and abandonment issues, blended family challenges, adoption and foster-care topics, body image and codependency. She also addresses harder-to-name situations like coping after natural or human-caused disasters and difficulties linked to personality or mood disorders.

Based in Florida and licensed as an LMHC, Liza works in English. She encourages people to take small steps toward change and offers steady support while clients try new ways of coping and relating to themselves and others.

How Liza’s Approaches Work Online

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the person. It helps people feel heard and guides them to set their own goals and pace for change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at unhelpful thoughts and patterns and teaches practical ways to test and change them to reduce anxiety and depression.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Liza will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and goals. She usually starts by listening, then suggests skills or exercises from CBT, DBT, or mindfulness to try together and adjusts based on how things go.

The original profile does not list specific online session formats, so confirm the current options before booking. Online therapy can still make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - it can cut travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let people join from quieter surroundings. Licensed professionals can use these methods effectively online by teaching skills, reviewing homework, and practicing new ways of coping during sessions.
