LPC, 6 years of experience
I am a Licensed professional counselor in Texas. I have five years of experience in the field. I have a PhD. in psychology and specialize in trauma. I work with individuals to develop healthy behaviors, so that their quality of life can significantly improve. I take a collaborative approach so that the client feels empowered and is able to be actively engaged in their treatment.
In our first session together we will explore the reasons for seeking therapy. The therapeutic relationship is essential and we begin to build trust and establish healthy communication. I like to get an overall perspective of the client and their goals. By establishing an open, collaborative relationship, I am then able to develop a strong treatment plan for the client.
I have experience with a wide range of populations, in various levels of care, which has enhanced my ability to help my clients work through various mental health and life challenges. I am extremely empathetic and focus on the strengths of the client.
I enjoy working with adults who are ready to take a proactive step towards their healing. I take a collaborative approach with my clients, and work closely together to set and reach treatment goals.

Dr. Elizabeth has been instrumental in changing my negative thought processes, bringing awareness to my actions, helping me to feel confident in setting boundaries with those I love, and in challenging me to find love for myself. Would highly recommend her for anyone really wanting long-term change. Be open-minded, honest, and accountable with her and she will be your light leading you out of darkness.
