Lisa Kuzman, LISW

Lisa Kuzman is a licensed independent social worker with 17 years of experience. She practices with a calm, client-centered style and focuses on clear, practical steps people can use right away.

She helps people cope with grief and loss and manage stress and anxiety. Career concerns, life transitions, and professional coaching are also areas she addresses. Lisa uses a trauma-informed outlook and pays attention to how past experiences shape present behavior.

Her work includes support for people facing aging and geriatric issues, caregiver strain, cancer-related challenges, and end-of-life concerns. She also addresses ADHD, body image, isolation, and difficulties around money or life purpose. Sessions aim to identify small changes that add up to better daily functioning.

Lisa draws on client-centered therapy to keep sessions focused on each person's goals. She blends mindfulness and somatic practices when bodily awareness and stress regulation are needed. Motivational interviewing and solution-focused techniques help people set realistic steps and try them between visits.

Her approach is respectful and straightforward. She will tailor conversation and planning to each person's needs. The goal is steady progress toward clearer choices and more manageable days.

Approaches that translate well to online care

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and helping people set their own goals, which fits well with online conversations and guided planning. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce stress and increase awareness, and these exercises can be practiced between sessions. Motivational interviewing helps people find their own reasons to change and break larger goals into small steps that they can try in daily life.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and how they respond to different methods, and then try approaches collaboratively to find what helps best.

Confirm current session options before booking, since specific formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let people practice techniques from wherever they are. It also supports ongoing work between meetings, such as mindfulness exercises, coaching tasks, and homework that build toward clearer routines and reduced stress.
