Focus areas and approaches

Everything Liza lists on their public professional profile, in their own terms.

Online support

Evidence-based support delivered online

Many of Liza's sessions draw on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change. One approach emphasizes identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing them against real-life evidence to reduce anxiety and low mood. This method helps people notice thoughts that increase distress and practice different responses.

Another approach centers on building routines and behavioral changes to lift mood and reduce overwhelm. It focuses on small, achievable actions each week that add structure and improve daily functioning, which can be useful for depression, stress, and recovery from substance issues.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Liza will work with each person to figure out which techniques fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She adjusts methods over time based on what helps most and encourages feedback about pace and focus.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when a full session is helpful, phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text-based messaging can support quick check-ins or shorter conversations. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to maintain continuity of care over time.
