About Bridget

Bridget Gottlieb is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, licensed in Florida and an LMSW in Michigan with 20 years of clinical experience. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship challenges, addictions, and life transitions. Her work also covers issues like parenting, eating concerns, intimacy-related struggles, and compassion fatigue.

Bridget uses straightforward methods drawn from client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance and commitment therapy, attachment-based approaches, and dialectical behavior therapy. Sessions focus on practical skills - naming difficult feelings, noticing thought patterns, and trying new ways to cope. She keeps explanations direct so people can apply tools between sessions.

Her background includes long experience with loss, chronic illness, workplace and financial stress, and the transitions that follow major life events. Bridget helps people who are adjusting after a bereavement, a breakup, a move, or a change at work. She also works with people managing bipolar symptoms and chronic pain where day-to-day functioning is affected.

In-session work often blends talking, skills practice, and short behavioral experiments. Bridget aims to help clients set small goals, practice new responses, and review what changed. She emphasizes steady progress and clear, measurable steps.

Sessions are offered in English. Costs vary with location and use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To begin, complete the short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the site.

BHow sessions work

How Bridget’s approaches translate to online work

Bridget commonly draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). ACT helps people notice unhelpful avoidance and choose actions that match their values; it can be useful for anxiety, grief, and life changes. CBT looks at thought patterns and practical behavior changes to reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression and to improve daily functioning.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Bridget will collaborate with each client to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. She checks in about what is working, adjusts techniques, and sets small, measurable steps together.

Session formats are not specified in the original biography, so please confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy life - it can reduce travel time, allow for shorter check-in visits during a workday, and make follow-up sessions simpler to schedule. Licensed professionals can use online sessions to teach coping skills, run brief behavioral experiments, and review progress in real time.
