Hi, I’m Elizabeth a licensed therapist based in Texas with six years of experience walking alongside people through some of life’s toughest seasons. I’ve worked with clients facing addiction, relationship and family struggles, intimacy challenges, low motivation, and self-esteem issues—and I’ve seen how healing begins when we feel safe enough to be honest.
I believe therapy should be a space where you can speak freely, without fear of judgment. Whether you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or just unsure of where to begin, I’m here to help you sort through the noise and reconnect with your strength, purpose, and clarity.
Taking the first step toward therapy takes courage, and I want you to know you should be proud of yourself for showing up.
Areas of focus: Addictions, Relationships, Family conflicts, Intimacy, Motivation & Self-esteem, Confidence-building, Abandonment & attachment issues, Chronic pain, illness, and disability, Codependency, Divorce & separation, Drug and alcohol addiction, Forgiveness, guilt & shame, HIV/AIDS support, Hospice and end-of-life counseling, Isolation & loneliness, Life purpose, Men's issues, Veteran and Armed Forces support, Law Enforcement professionals, Self-love, Women's issues & Workplace stress and transitions.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
