Liesa Watson
Liesa Watson is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in New Jersey with close to a decade of practice and a steady, unhurried way of working. People usually find her when anxiety, low mood, grief, or plain relentless stress has started running the show, and she helps them get their footing back.
She works with adults of every age, from students figuring out who they are to people navigating caregiving, career shifts, and later life. Her approach pulls from acceptance and commitment therapy, CBT, DBT, exposure and response prevention, motivational interviewing, narrative and solution focused work, mindfulness, and coaching. She also holds certifications in perinatal mental health and disaster response crisis counseling. Expect someone practical and warm who will actually help you build a plan.
Liesa sees clients through WellQor, which provides therapy online, so you can meet from wherever you are without adding a commute to your week.
