Lisa Maulding Anthony

Lisa Maulding Anthony is a Florida LMHC with 25 years of clinical experience. She works with adults dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and self-esteem concerns. Her focus includes attachment and abandonment issues, codependency, body image, impulses, and substance-related struggles.

She uses a mix of evidence-informed methods. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify patterns of thinking that keep problems going. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) offers ways to notice difficult feelings and choose actions that align with personal values. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at relational patterns that shape how people connect and trust.

Sessions are collaborative and grounded in a person-centered stance. That means conversations focus on what matters to the client and practical steps they can try between meetings. Hypnotherapy is also part of her toolkit and may be used alongside talk-based methods when appropriate.

Clients often come with overlapping issues such as family problems, guilt and shame, or experiences of domestic violence and addiction. The work tends to blend skill-building with attention to relational history and present-day choices. Lisa aims to help people clarify values, manage symptoms, and take manageable steps forward.

She practices in Florida and offers services in English. Prospective clients are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session to begin the process.

How therapeutic approaches shape online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings without trying to fight them, then pick actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, depression, and feeling stuck when making life choices.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors. It is often used for anxiety, stress management, and mood concerns by practicing concrete skills between sessions.

Attachment-Based Therapy examines past and present relationship patterns that affect trust, closeness, and communication. It can help with abandonment concerns, codependency, and difficulty forming stable connections.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each client to decide which combination of methods fits their goals and preferences. That process may include trying different exercises and noticing what helps most.

Confirm the exact online session formats before booking, since session options are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Therapists generally help adapt exercises so they work well in a virtual setting and fit into everyday life.
