About Liesl
Liesl Botelho is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Florida with 15 years of experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship issues, grief, self-esteem, and depression. She helps people who are worn down by everyday pressures and by feelings that are hard to share.
Liesl uses practical conversation to identify what is overwhelming a person right now. Sessions focus on clear steps to reduce stress, improve communication, and rebuild confidence. She talks through patterns that contribute to low mood and difficulty connecting with others.
Her work also pays attention to life transitions. That includes divorce and separation, aging and geriatric concerns, and challenges young adults face. She addresses isolation, guilt, shame, and problems that can appear after military service.
People meet to sort immediate problems and to plan how they want things to change over time. Liesl aims for straightforward, manageable goals rather than long lists of abstract tasks. The approach is practical and grounded in daily life.
Clients can expect a steady focus on skills that make routines easier and relationships clearer. Communication problems and mood disorders are treated with short-term strategies and ongoing adjustments. Liesl supports people as they work toward greater self-respect and better interactions with others.
BHow sessions work
How evidence-based approaches translate to online sessions
Evidence-based therapeutic techniques often include short-term behavioral strategies and supportive problem-solving. Behavioral strategies focus on small changes in routines and habits to reduce anxiety and depression symptoms, and are useful for daily stress and mood regulation.Supportive problem-solving involves identifying the most pressing problems, breaking them into manageable steps, and practicing communication skills. This approach helps with relationship strain, communication problems, and practical life transitions like divorce or caregiving for older relatives.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about what feels useful and adjust techniques to match goals and preferences. That collaborative process helps decide whether to emphasize skill building, problem-solving, or a mix of methods.
The practical benefits of working with a licensed professional online include easier scheduling and fitting sessions into a busy week. Confirm the specific session formats offered before booking, since they are not listed in the biography. Online work can make it simpler to check in during a lunch break, have a shorter follow-up appointment, or avoid travel while still working on communication and mood management.
