About Liza
Liza White is a licensed mental health counselor who helps people manage strong feelings and stressful life moments. She works with individuals facing anxiety, stress, anger, grief, addiction, trauma, depression, and challenges linked to parenting and intimacy. Liza communicates plainly and supports people taking first steps toward change.
She uses a mix of practical strategies and listening to help people feel understood. Sessions focus on real problems and workable steps, such as learning coping skills, shifting unhelpful thoughts, and practicing new ways to communicate.
Background and approach
Liza emphasizes collaboration and sets goals together with each person. With 12 years of experience, she draws on several therapy styles to match what a person needs. Those include client-centered work that prioritizes the person’s perspective, cognitive behavioral techniques to address thought and behavior patterns, and elements of mindfulness to calm the body and mind.
Motivational interviewing also guides conversations about change when motivation feels low. People often come for help with self-esteem, ADHD symptoms, managing mood swings, or handling family stress. Liza also addresses specific concerns like abandonment, attachment issues, blended family dynamics, and body image.
She frames sessions around practical progress rather than labels. Sessions are offered from her Florida practice and conducted in English. Liza aims to create a nonjudgmental space where people can speak honestly and work toward clearer choices and steadier days.

How Liza’s Approaches Translate Online
Client-centered work focuses on listening and following the person's lead. Online sessions use that same stance to let clients talk about what matters most while the therapist reflects and helps clarify goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy targets the connections between thoughts, feelings, and actions; online CBT can include homework, thought records, and concrete behavior experiments discussed in video or messaging. Dialectical Behavior Therapy teaches skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can be practiced and reviewed across phone or text check-ins for steady skill building.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will ask about current struggles, goals, and what has or hasn't worked before. Together they will try strategies, adjust based on progress, and pick the tools that feel most helpful for the person's life and schedule.
Online formats offer flexibility for people with busy days or limited travel options. Video calls let for face-to-face interaction and visual cues. Phone sessions are helpful when bandwidth is low or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging allow shorter check-ins, ongoing skill coaching, or quick reflections between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, school, or family routines while staying focused on practical change.
