About Lisa
Lisa Maulding Anthony is a Florida licensed mental health counselor with 25 years of experience. She supports people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and struggles with self-worth. She aims to make therapy straightforward and practical so parents can get clear help when life feels overwhelming.
She uses talk therapy alongside techniques like hypnotherapy and mindfulness to reduce intense feelings and improve everyday coping. Sessions focus on small steps clients can try between meetings, such as short behavioral changes and simple thought-work.
How Lisa works
The tone is warm and down-to-earth, with emphasis on realistic goals and steady progress. Lisa often draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and cognitive behavioral methods to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try new responses. Attachment-based ideas guide work on relationship hurt and abandonment wounds.
The mix of approaches is adapted to what a person needs that week, not a fixed formula. Over her career she has helped people manage co-occurring concerns like codependency, substance issues, body image, and impulsivity while addressing core problems such as shame, guilt, and communication breakdowns.
She pays attention to how past experiences shape present choices and offers practical ways to change them. Her style centers on listening, building trust, and collaborating on goals. New clients complete a short questionnaire to match with her and then schedule sessions that fit their life.
She offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging for ongoing care.

Online support options
Therapeutic approaches for online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting swept away by them, then choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, stress and persistent avoidance. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviors and teaches practical skills to change patterns that keep problems going; it is often used for depression and anxiety. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships influence current trust and closeness, and it can help when abandonment or relationship wounds affect daily life.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences and what has or hasn't helped before. Together they will pick methods to try and adjust them as progress is made, keeping the plan flexible and collaborative.
Online therapy offers practical benefits through video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video allows face-to-face conversation when tone and expression matter, while phone sessions can fit a quick check-in or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging support shorter updates, ongoing encouragement, and therapy between scheduled sessions. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around a busy life.
