About Liza
Liza White is a licensed mental health counselor who focuses on helping people cope with stress, anxiety, addiction, grief, depression, and ADHD. She aims to create a calm, nonjudgmental space where clients can speak openly. Liza frames therapy as a practical partnership and supports clients taking the first steps toward change.
She uses straightforward techniques to help people manage day-to-day difficulties. Sessions often include looking at thought patterns, building coping skills, and practicing grounding and mindfulness exercises.
Background and approach
Liza draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy tools to teach specific skills for emotion regulation and problem solving. She also leans on client-centered principles, which means she listens carefully and follows each person’s priorities. Motivational Interviewing is used when someone feels stuck and needs help finding reasons to change.
These methods are adapted to fit the client’s goals and pace. With 12 years of experience and a Florida LMHC credential, she has worked with many people facing trauma, relationship struggles, and major life transitions. Her approach balances practical skill building with steady emotional support.
Liza pays attention to family and parenting stress, intimacy-related concerns, and challenges like bipolar symptoms or anger that can interfere with relationships. She also addresses issues linked to adoption, attachment, autism spectrum traits, and codependency where relevant. People who want clear tools and a compassionate listener may find her approach helpful.
She focuses on small, doable changes that add up over time.
Practical approaches for online therapy and skill building
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following the client’s goals. The therapist creates space to hear what matters most and adjusts the pace and focus to match the person’s needs. This approach helps when a person wants steady support and to feel understood.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions influence each other. In short, it helps people spot unhelpful thinking and practice small changes that reduce anxiety, depression, or ADHD-related difficulties. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches skills for managing intense emotions and improving communication, which can help with anger, mood swings, and relationship strain.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, try methods that fit those goals, and adapt techniques over time. That collaborative process helps tailor therapy to what actually helps the client make progress.
Online sessions are offered by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to match different needs. Video calls approximate an in-person session and allow for visual cues. Phone sessions can be shorter check-ins or work when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging suit quick check-ins, reflective writing, or when someone prefers not to be on camera. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and keep momentum between meetings.
