Lizandra Montero

Lizandra Montero is a Florida LCSW with three years of clinical experience. She works with adults and young people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, compassion fatigue, and life changes. She speaks English and Spanish and aims to help people who feel stuck or uncertain about what comes next.

Her sessions focus on practical steps and clear conversation. She uses Client-Centered Therapy to listen and reflect what matters most to each person. She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to notice thoughts and try small behavior changes that can lessen anxiety and mood problems.

Lizandra incorporates Solution-Focused Therapy and Motivational Interviewing when clients want to set short-term goals and build momentum. She uses Trauma-Focused Therapy when past events continue to cause panic, flashbacks, or avoidance. The approaches are used to address issues like attachment concerns, body image, caregiver stress, and communication problems.

People often come to her for help with divorce or separation, guilt and shame, loneliness, or questions about life purpose. She also supports those facing pregnancy and childbirth related stress, panic attacks, and post-traumatic stress symptoms. Sessions are offered in both English and Spanish.

Her style centers on practical tools, clear feedback, and collaborative planning. Interested people are asked to use the online matching process to schedule a first session and discuss what they want to work on.

Therapy approaches and how online sessions work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting the client's concerns so they can better understand what matters to them. It helps people who are unsure what to say or who need a steady, respectful conversation to sort through feelings.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and uses practical exercises to reduce anxiety or low mood. Trauma-Focused Therapy addresses reactions to past events and teaches skills to manage panic, flashbacks, and avoidance when those issues are present.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Lizandra will discuss options and try approaches that fit the client's goals, needs, and preferences. This is a collaborative process where adjustments are made as progress and feedback emerge.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, and remove the need to travel to appointments. Licensed professionals can use different methods to match a person's routine and goals, and Lizandra will talk through what works best during the initial scheduling steps.
