Liza is a fantastic counsellor, I highly recommend working with her. It’s an investment in yourself which will pay off! I started having sessions with her to help me deal with the grief of miscarriages, PMDD and general plans for the future regarding my health and fertility. I have learned so much about how I process my challenges and have become much more at peace with my lot in life. I have practiced healthier ways of dealing with trauma and tragedy and feel more prepared to handle things on my own. Liza is incredibly knowledgeable, calm, kind, non judgemental and empathetic. She offers insight alongside practical suggestions for how to come to terms with situations, and make the best of your circumstances. I’m so happy that I got paired with her and it really was extremely helpful.

More about Elizaveta
- 9 years' experience
- Female
- LCSW
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the State of Florida experienced in providing guidance, mental health, and substance abuse counseling for my clients. Since 2014, I have worked with individuals struggling with various problems with addictions, depression, anxiety, traumatic events, loss of purpose, and relationship issues.
I received my Bachelor’s in Culture and Arts in 2009 and my Master’s Degree in Social Work in 2014. I gained my experience working with elderly individuals in inpatient settings, providing therapy services to families and individuals in an outpatient setting, as well as working with clients, struggling with addictions in an inpatient setting. In addition, I have worked with patients severely mentally ill by providing a safe place to share their world and seek solutions to their challenging life circumstances. I am trained in evidence based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Rational Emotive Behavioral Therapy (REBT), Solution-Focused Brief Therapy, as well as Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy with MBSR techniques. I am fluent in English and Russian languages.
Our everyday lives are filled with events that we have no control over. Some go about their lives embracing this chaos, but for others this task may seem challenging and unattainable. I believe that with proper guidance one can accept life as spontaneous chain of events and feel comfortable throughout the process of change. I do believe that without a sense of purpose life loses its meaning, therefore in my sessions I stress the importance of finding and redefining one's purpose.
I offer a range of therapeutic services, all designed to help you find your way back into a peaceful and satisfying life. Whether you're looking for a change or just feel the need to talk to somebody, I am here for you.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

She is not just an amazing therapist, she is an amazing person!
I really enjoy my video sessions with Liza. She goes straight to the point in order to take advantage of the time we have together. She listens, takes notes, provides insightful feedback. She follows up in our chat and sends valuable workshops for me to read and complete.

So far so good! I am very happy to have made contact. I am new to online therapy therefore, Liza has helped me make this experience a great one.
I love Liza. I haven’t been able to find a therapist that I clicked with in a long time. Liza actually listens to what I have to say, she asks tough questions but in a respectful manner, and she keeps me accountable. And she does all of that with support and kindness. I can’t say enough good things about her, she’s wonderful.
She’s helped me in the past and I'm sure she can help me again. Thank you
Would definitely recommend to friends/family. Very understanding. Great advice!
Lisa does a wonderful job and writing me back in a timely manner. She gives me advice that I have never heard of which is wonderful.
Liza has been there for me when I was most in need. Her empathy, understanding, and experience have helped me immensely. I would highly recommend her. I am grateful for her help.
Liza has been very attentive, and available to help me. She offered me specific steps and followed up with me regularly. I had a very good counseling experience with her.
I was skeptical using this app. But I can honestly say Liza put me at ease and was very easy to get everything out and address what seemed to be most important during the first session. Very happy so far.
