Lisa Moranz, LCSW

Lisa Moranz is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people manage stress, anxiety, grief, depression, and problems with self-esteem. She uses clear, practical steps so clients can start feeling steadier in daily life. Lisa writes in plain terms and focuses on small changes that add up over time.

She draws on about 12 years of clinical experience to guide sessions. Lisa often combines cognitive behavioral approaches with attachment-based and client-centered work. That means she helps people notice unhelpful thoughts, understand relationship patterns, and build on their own strengths.

In conversation she keeps things direct and collaborative. Sessions usually look at what a person wants to change, try a few strategies, and check what helps most. She also adapts tools when people are coping with trauma, grief, burnout, or chronic mood problems.

Lisa supports people dealing with relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting stress, addiction-related struggles, and life transitions. She also addresses attachment issues, codependency, and feelings of isolation or emptiness. Her approach balances skill-building with emotional processing.

People who choose Lisa can expect a steady, respectful presence and practical homework between sessions. She works from New York as an LCSW and conducts sessions in English. The focus is on finding what works for each person and helping them take manageable steps forward.

Evidence-informed approaches adapted for online care

Lisa frequently uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, and many daily stressors because it focuses on practical steps and measurable change.

She also draws on attachment-based therapy to look at how early relationship patterns shape current reactions. That approach helps people understand closeness, trust, and recurring relationship struggles in a way that feels concrete and usable.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Lisa collaborates with each person to choose techniques that match their goals and comfort level, adjusting methods over time based on what is helpful.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video works well for deeper conversation and seeing nonverbal cues. Phone sessions can fit a busy day or use less bandwidth. Live chat and text messaging make shorter check-ins and ongoing problem-solving easier. These formats are intended to increase flexibility so therapy can fit into daily life.
