About Lisa

Lisa Moranz is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) in New York with 12 years of direct therapy experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem, depression, and addictions among other concerns. Lisa helps people who are coping with major life changes and day-to-day pressures.

She takes a straightforward, person-centered approach. Sessions are practical and aimed at improving how people manage feelings and relationships. She often uses tools from cognitive behavioral approaches, mindfulness, and attachment-focused work to help clients notice patterns and try different responses.

Lisa has a background in human services that spans more than a decade. That experience informs how she supports clients facing complicated situations such as blended family issues, communication problems, and codependency. She also works with issues like dissociation, isolation, and guilt or shame.

In the room she blends focused skills training with time to process difficult experiences. She may introduce techniques to reduce intense feelings, then practice ways to act differently in stressful moments. EMDR and dialectical behavior strategies are part of the mix when they fit the client's goals.

Sessions aim to help people clarify priorities and build steady coping strategies. Lisa works in English and practices in New York. Before booking, confirm the current session options and any logistical details that matter to you.

BHow sessions work

Therapeutic approaches applied to online work

Attachment-based work focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns. In practice this means looking at how people connect and react in close relationships, then trying different ways to feel and behave in those moments. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a skills-driven approach that helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors; it is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress management. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a therapy used to process traumatic memories and reduce their emotional intensity; it often involves focused recalling combined with guided bilateral stimulation.

Finding the right approach is part of the collaboration. The therapist will work with the client to identify goals, test methods, and adjust as needed. That conversation often happens in the first few sessions and guides which techniques are emphasized going forward.

Confirm current session options before booking, since formats are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. They also let people use quieter surroundings or avoid holding camera time when that helps them engage. Discuss format preferences with the therapist when you schedule so sessions match practical needs and therapeutic goals.
