About Liza

Liza Howe is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in New Jersey with 20 years of experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, addictions, grief, depression, coping with life changes, trauma and abuse, and self esteem. Liza also pays special attention to aging and geriatric issues, caregiver stress, codependency, divorce and separation, and women’s issues.

Her work centers on practical problem solving and steady support. She helps people name what feels most difficult, sort priorities, and try specific skills to manage symptoms. Sessions often focus on immediate coping strategies for mood and anxiety and on longer-term planning for life changes.

Liza has two decades of practice that include supporting people through grief, addiction concerns, and caregiving burdens. That experience informs how she balances short-term symptom relief with attention to underlying stressors. She draws on clinical methods described as evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide treatment choices.

In sessions she emphasizes collaborative planning. Clients and she set goals together, review progress, and adjust steps when needed. She works to make next steps clear and manageable rather than abstract or overwhelming.

People seeking help can expect direct, practical conversations. Liza frames problems in everyday language and offers tools people can use between sessions. This approach is aimed at reducing distress and helping clients make decisions that fit their lives.

Sheet 2

Evidence-based approaches and what they do

Evidence-based therapeutic techniques can include practical, skill-based methods that target symptoms directly and longer-term approaches that address patterns over time. For example, structured coping skills training teaches concrete techniques for managing anxiety, stress, and mood shifts so people have tools to use between appointments.

Therapies that review life transitions and roles help people facing divorce, caregiving responsibilities, or aging-related changes. These approaches focus on clarifying values, making decisions, and planning steps that reduce day-to-day burden.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to identify which methods make sense based on goals, preferences, and the problem at hand. That collaboration includes trying options, checking what helps, and changing course when needed.

Session logistics should be confirmed before booking since specific formats were not listed in the biography. Many people find remote sessions help fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. If you need a particular session type, verify the available formats when you schedule to ensure they match your needs.
