About Lisa

Lisa Butrymowicz is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) in Florida who brings 23 years of professional experience to her therapeutic practice.

Background and approach

She works with people managing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, bipolar disorder, and ADHD, and she adapts interventions to each person's unique situation and goals. Lisa emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion, and she frames therapy as a collaborative process aimed at practical change and increased wellbeing.

Her approach draws on a range of evidence-informed methods to meet diverse concerns, and she creates treatment plans tailored to individual needs rather than using a one-size-fits-all model. Clients can expect dialogue shaped around their priorities, with encouragement and support during difficult transitions and behavioral change.

She also attends to related issues such as attachment struggles, caregiver stress, codependency, blended family dynamics, and other complex presentations that often accompany primary concerns. Lisa supports those who are ready to take steps toward a more fulfilling life, offering guidance and empowerment throughout the process.

She accepts international clients and practices from Florida, providing multiple session formats to accommodate varied schedules and preferences.

Approaches for online healing and lasting change

Lisa often integrates Internal Family Systems and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) in online work. Internal Family Systems focuses on understanding and tending to the various inner parts that influence feelings and behavior, helping clients develop self-led compassion and reduce internal conflict. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy encourages people to clarify personal values and take committed action while learning to accept difficult thoughts and emotions rather than struggle with them.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey, and she collaborates with each client to identify which methods fit best with their goals, preferences, and life circumstances. That collaborative exploration helps shape a personalized plan that can evolve as progress is made and priorities shift.

Online therapy with Lisa is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, providing flexibility for varied schedules and geographic locations. These options make it easier to maintain consistency, access support during busy weeks, and continue work between sessions while tailoring the format to what helps each person engage most effectively.
