Getting to know Liza Mordkovich
Hi! I am a therapist and owner of Brooklyn Center for Mindfulness and Psychotherapy. We believe in science-supported care that is accessible and affordable for all.
I hold a Master’s in Social Work from the Silberman School of Social Work and a Bachelor’s degree from Tufts University. As a seasoned clinician, I specialize in addressing perinatal mental health, trauma, anxiety, OCD, parenting challenges, and depression. With expertise in evidence-based practices, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), I provide tailored therapeutic support to individuals and families navigating complex life transitions.
My approach is grounded in empathy, creativity, and a commitment to fostering resilience. I have a deep passion for empowering clients to overcome obstacles, heal from trauma, and cultivate meaningful relationships. Whether supporting individuals through postpartum challenges, managing intrusive thoughts, or guiding parents in developing effective strategies, I aim to create a safe and nurturing space for growth.
In addition to my clinical practice, I am dedicated to mentoring and educating fellow mental health professionals, ensuring they have the tools and knowledge to provide exceptional care.
What should a new client know about working with you?
As a therapist, my approach is compassionate, collaborative, and tailored to meet your unique needs. My goal is to create a safe, nonjudgmental space where you feel comfortable exploring your thoughts, emotions, and challenges.
Here’s what to expect when working with me:
Personalized Care: I adapt evidence-based methods like CBT, DBT, and ACT to suit your goals and preferences. Whether you’re navigating anxiety, trauma, or perinatal challenges, I’ll work with you to create a plan that feels right for you.
A Holistic Approach: I view therapy as a partnership where we explore not just your mental health, but how various aspects of your life—relationships, career, or parenting—impact your overall well-being.
Empowerment and Growth: My focus is on helping you build resilience and gain tools to manage life’s challenges more effectively. Together, we’ll celebrate progress and address obstacles at your own pace.
Openness and Support: You’ll be met with empathy and respect. I believe in meeting you where you are, honoring your experiences, and supporting you through moments of discomfort or growth.
Therapy is a journey, and I’m here to walk alongside you, helping you uncover the strengths and potential you already have. It’s okay to feel unsure about starting—just showing up is a step toward positive change.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
Initial Consultation:
During our first meeting, we’ll discuss your current concerns, history, and goals for therapy. This is an opportunity for you to share what’s bringing you to therapy and for me to answer any questions you have about the process.
Assessment and Goal Setting:
I conduct a thorough assessment to understand your unique experiences, challenges, and strengths. Together, we’ll identify your goals for therapy and develop a plan tailored to your needs.
Building a Therapeutic Relationship:
Creating a safe and trusting space is my priority. We’ll work at a pace that feels comfortable for you, ensuring you feel heard, respected, and supported.
Implementing Evidence-Based Techniques:
Depending on your needs, I may incorporate strategies from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), or other approaches. I’ll guide you through practical tools and techniques to address challenges such as anxiety, trauma, OCD, parenting stress, or perinatal mental health.
Ongoing Collaboration:
Therapy is a collaborative process. We’ll regularly review your progress, adjust your goals as needed, and celebrate your achievements along the way. I encourage open communication so we can ensure the work feels meaningful and relevant to you.
Empowering Long-Term Growth:
My ultimate goal is to empower you to build resilience, confidence, and tools you can carry forward. When the time comes to transition out of therapy, we’ll focus on creating a plan to help you maintain the progress you’ve made.
Throughout our work together, I prioritize creating a warm, judgment-free environment where you feel comfortable exploring and growing.
