Liza Howe, LCSW

Liza Howe is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) in New Jersey with 20 years of experience. She focuses on helping adults manage stress, anxiety, addiction, grief, depression, and major life changes. Sessions address everyday struggles that affect work, family, and health.

Her background includes long-term work with people facing mood disorders and addiction-related concerns. She also supports caregivers and people navigating divorce or separation. Liza brings experience with aging and geriatric issues and the particular strains those can create.

In sessions she listens for concrete patterns that get in the way of daily functioning. Conversations often look at what triggers stress and what practical steps can reduce its impact. She helps people build coping skills, manage strong emotions, and set boundaries where needed.

She commonly addresses codependency and relationship patterns without assuming a single solution. Practical problem-solving and gradual behavior changes are typical features of her work. Expect collaborative planning around goals and small, achievable steps between visits.

Liza also guides people through grief and loss with attention to routine and daily care. For addictions and substance concerns she focuses on safety, coping strategies, and linking behavior to broader life patterns. Her approach centers on steady, workable changes rather than quick fixes.
