About Brett

LMFT (Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist) in Florida with 14 years of experience. Brett Lieberman helps people facing addiction, relationship and family challenges, trauma, anxiety, depression, grief, stress, and concerns around intimacy and parenting. He uses approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Trauma-Focused Therapy.

Brett believes people know their lives best and prefers a person-centered way of working. He focuses on practical steps rather than telling someone what to do. Sessions aim to move someone from where they are now toward goals they choose. He also offers coaching around life purpose and career decisions.

In sessions he listens for patterns that keep problems repeating. He uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify thoughts and behaviors that get in the way. Narrative Therapy helps reframe personal stories that limit choices. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, achievable changes to create momentum.

Brett has concentrated experience with substance use and domestic violence concerns, and with first responder and veteran issues. He also addresses blended family dynamics, codependency, control issues, divorce and separation, and sexual assault and abuse. He works with people coping with bipolar disorder and ongoing mood concerns as part of broader life challenges.

He trained at Capella University, earning a master’s degree in 2009, and holds LMFT credentials in Florida and North Carolina. Sessions are conducted in English. International clients are accepted. Before booking, confirm the current session formats offered.

How his therapeutic approaches shape online work

Many of his methods map directly to practical online work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and testing small changes. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression, stress, and coping with life changes. Narrative Therapy looks at the stories people tell about themselves and helps rewrite limiting narratives to open up new choices. Solution-Focused Therapy targets concrete, short-term steps that move someone toward specific goals and can be helpful for coaching and decision points.

Choosing an approach is collaborative. He will discuss goals, past attempts, and preferences to decide which methods to try first. The plan can shift over time based on what is helping and what feels workable for the person.

The therapist's biography does not list specific session formats. Before booking, confirm which formats are offered. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into daily life - for example a shorter check-in during a work break or a video session that saves travel time. These practical benefits can help people sustain consistent work on clearly defined goals.
