About Liza

Liza White is a licensed mental health counselor who helps people handle stress, anxiety, anger, and major life changes. She meets people where they are and focuses on practical steps they can take right now. Her approach aims to make it easier to talk about hard feelings and start small changes that add up.

With 12 years of experience, Liza draws on several evidence-informed approaches to match each person's needs. She uses client-centered work to listen closely and build trust. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot unhelpful thought patterns and Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills to manage strong emotions.

Sessions are straightforward and focused on what matters to the client. Liza helps people develop coping tools for grief, addiction challenges, ADHD-related concerns, and relationship or intimacy-related struggles. She also supports people dealing with trauma, depression, self-esteem, and parenting stress.

Her background includes practice in Florida and a range of clinical settings over more than a decade. She describes therapy as a collaborative process where the client’s goals guide the work. That means setting clear, achievable steps and adjusting them as progress happens.

People who reach out can expect calm listening, practical skill-building, and encouragement to try new ways of responding to old problems. The focus is on empowering the client to move toward a more manageable and satisfying life.

How these therapy approaches work online

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting the client’s experience back so they feel understood and in charge of goals. It helps when people need a nonjudgmental space to sort through strong feelings and decide what they want to change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors and teaches practical exercises to reduce anxiety, depression, and unhelpful reaction patterns. It is useful for managing stress, anger, and mood swings.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to choose which methods fit their goals and daily life. That includes trying a technique, checking whether it helps, and adjusting the plan over time so it matches real needs and preferences.

Confirm current session options before booking, as specific formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, or avoid needing to travel to appointments. Many people find the flexibility helpful for keeping momentum between sessions while they practice skills learned in therapy.
