Compassionate therapy for anxiety and life changes

Liza Saffo-Mott is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker practicing in California who brings a thoughtful, adaptable approach to therapy. She has practiced social work since 2013 and has been a licensed clinician since 2021; she also has three years of experience providing therapy services.
She works with clients across the lifespan and focuses on helping people manage anxiety, stress, depression, negative thinking patterns, communication challenges, grief and loss, major life transitions, and questions related to identity. Her practice also addresses relationship and family conflicts, trauma and abuse, anger, compassion fatigue, and ADHD.
Liza uses an eclectic mix of evidence-informed techniques rather than relying on a single method. She most frequently draws from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), solution-focused strategies, and acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT). After learning what brings someone to therapy, she explains which approaches she believes will be most useful and why, so clients can make informed choices about their care.
For many common concerns—such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and handling life transitions—remote therapy is shown to be similarly effective to face-to-face sessions. Online care can address these everyday issues and offer a practical path to support.
A key benefit is flexibility. People can choose the format that works best for them, whether that is video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. This variety makes it easier to schedule sessions around work, family, and other commitments.
Therapists who provide online services are licensed professionals, and clients may change therapists at any time if they seek a different fit. The combination of professional training and flexible delivery helps make therapy more accessible for many individuals.
