About Liza

Liza White is a licensed mental health counselor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, grief, and trauma. She focuses on building a calm, nonjudgmental space where clients can share their thoughts and feelings. Liza uses straightforward, practical tools so people can take steps toward a more manageable daily life.

With 12 years of experience, Liza draws on several evidence-informed approaches to tailor care to each person. She blends Client-Centered Therapy with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy techniques to help clients notice unhelpful patterns and try small changes. Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills and Motivational Interviewing are available when people need emotion regulation tools or support to change behaviors.

Liza emphasizes collaboration. She works with each person to set clear, realistic goals and to choose strategies that fit their life. Sessions focus on concrete skills, gentle reflection, and practical plans that can be used between visits.

Her background includes helping people cope with life transitions, parenting stress, intimacy and relationship challenges, and mood disorders such as bipolar conditions. She also addresses issues like attachment, adoption and foster care concerns, communication problems, and body image struggles.

Liza practices in Florida and holds the LMHC credential. Sessions are conducted in English. Before booking, confirm current session options to make sure the format fits your needs.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Mindfulness Therapy encourages present-moment awareness through simple breathing and body-focused practices. It can help reduce reactivity to stress and make everyday emotions easier to notice and manage. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person's priorities and perspectives, with the therapist listening closely and reflecting so clients can clarify their goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying small behavioral experiments to change how someone feels and acts.

Finding the right approach is collaborative. Liza discusses goals and preferences with each person and may mix techniques to fit what’s most useful. This approach helps tailor sessions whether someone needs skills for emotional regulation, help with addiction-related motivation, or tools for managing anxiety and mood changes.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know which formats are available. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time, or allow a shorter check-in when schedules are tight. It also lets people practice mindfulness and CBT exercises between sessions with coaching from a licensed professional. Talk with the therapist during the match process to pick an approach and format that fit your life and goals.
