About Elizabeth

Elizabeth Smith is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas who helps people navigate stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship challenges, parenting concerns, and ADHD among other issues.

Background and approach

With eight years of clinical experience, she combines practical tools with an empathetic, client-centered stance to support coping with life changes, grief, anger, self-esteem struggles, career questions, and compassion fatigue. She also addresses blended family dynamics, caregiver stress, seasonal affective disorder, social anxiety, women’s issues, young adult transitions, and questions around life purpose and self-love.

Her style emphasizes partnership and personal tailoring of methods rather than a one-size-fits-all protocol. Elizabeth draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), mindfulness practices, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused techniques to build skills, improve emotional regulation, and create achievable steps toward clients’ goals.

She welcomes open dialogue and aims to create a comfortable space for people to explore sensitive material. Prospective clients in Texas can expect an approachable professional who centers client priorities while offering evidence-informed strategies to move forward.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and collaboration so clients can set their own goals and feel respected during sessions; it supports a wide range of concerns including anxiety, relationship struggles, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and patterns, offering practical skill-building for depression, anxiety, ADHD-related challenges, and stress management. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness skills useful for intense emotions, relationship conflict, and anger.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and will be determined together. The therapist will work with clients to explore goals, preferences, and what techniques feel most helpful, adapting methods as work progresses in a collaborative way.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit care into a busy schedule or when in-person visits are difficult. These options allow clients to access regular support, practice skills between sessions, and maintain continuity of care with licensed professionals from different locations.
