Lisa Maulding Anthony

Lisa Maulding Anthony is a licensed mental health counselor with 25 years of experience who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, and struggles with self-esteem. She offers a calm, steady approach that focuses on practical steps and clear goals. Lisa aims to meet people where they are and help them find ways to cope and move forward.

She treats difficulties that often come together, such as body image concerns, attachment and abandonment issues, codependency, and problems with control or impulsivity. Lisa uses methods that encourage awareness, moment-to-moment choices, and stronger coping skills. Sessions include talking through patterns, learning tools to manage symptoms, and practicing new ways to respond to hard feelings.

Her work draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, cognitive behavioral ideas, attachment-based thinking, client-centered methods, and hypnotherapy when appropriate. She integrates these approaches to fit each person's needs rather than using one fixed method. The goal is to help people build resilience and clearer self-understanding.

People who come for help can expect a respectful, collaborative space. Lisa listens for strengths and practical next steps. She supports people as they test new behaviors and adjust goals over time.

Based in Florida, Lisa holds the LMHC credential, which indicates a licensed mental health counselor. She conducts sessions in English and does not take international clients.

How therapy approaches guide online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and managing setbacks. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. It often helps with anxiety, low mood, and repetitive thinking. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns and can help with abandonment worries, codependency, and relationship difficulties.

Deciding which approach fits best is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, try techniques, and adjust methods based on how a person responds. That collaborative process helps match strategies to the client’s needs and preferences rather than forcing one method.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm available formats before booking since formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, allow a shorter check-in during a lunch break, or avoid needing to be on camera when bandwidth is limited. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT, CBT, and attachment-focused work to remote settings by using exercises, home practice, and focused session agendas to keep progress moving.
