Therapists in Lewisville, TX
We can all feel stuck in our own life at some point or another. If stress has you feeling overwhelmed, therapy can help get you back on track. When it comes to finding a therapist, Lewisville, TX can offer a wider range of counseling services than many surrounding rural or suburban areas, but finding the right therapist may be difficult, even in a city.
One reason for this is that the field of psychotherapy has a number of evidence-based approaches that can be more or less effective depending on the challenges being addressed, and the preferences of the individual. Solution focused therapy may be effective for goal setting, but someone who needs to work through trauma may find dialectical therapy more helpful. Individual needs can vary greatly, and what you need in therapy may not be located nearby, or an office may not be in network or taking new patients.
That’s where online therapy through a platform like BetterHelp can be beneficial. BetterHelp offers access to over 30,000 mental health professionals that specialize in everything from play therapy to family conflict, and have experience in working with diverse populations. By simply filling out an online questionnaire, BetterHelp will match you with a therapist that meets your needs. And because therapeutic alliance can be so essential to success, if you need to switch therapists you can do so at no additional cost.
Online therapy can also be a convenient solution for busy professionals, parents, and students. Online sessions fit easily into any schedule, and with video chat, phone, and text messaging options, you can talk to your therapist from the comfort of your own home or office.
If you live in the Lewisville area and have been feeling stuck, or have been thinking about therapy for any reason, whether to increase low self-esteem, focus on self-compassion, or to process past trauma, there is no better time to reach out. Contact BetterHelp to get started on your mental health and wellness journey.

Welcome. My name is Elizabeth, and I am here to offer support and active listening and to help you feel better so that you can get to where you want to be to find some peace in your life. I am a licensed professional counselor in the state of Texas. I have been a licensed counselor for close to 15 years. I worked as a master counselor for 10 years prior to being licensed. I have a Bachelor’s degree from the University of Texas in Austin and my Master of Science degree in Counseling from Texas A & M University in Corpus Christi. I have done a lot of work to support persons who have experienced trauma in their life. I have worked with both women and men who have been victim/survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault. I have worked with trauma victims/survivors of other crimes as well. In addition, I have experience working in psychiatric/behavioral health settings to offer support to persons who have mental health challenges, such as depression, suicidal thoughts, anxiety, and PTSD symptoms. In behavioral health settings, I have also worked with persons who struggle with substance abuse issues. My experience working in inpatient and outpatient settings gave me the opportunity to facilitate groups for individuals who are seeking help and need to know they are not alone in their struggle. In addition, I have worked with individuals and couples with general life stressors and life changes, who simply need some help and support to be better humans. I have been a crisis counselor working in shelter for those who survive sexual assault and domestic violence and seek a safe place to be. In addition, I have worked with geriatric clients, who are adjusting to this time in their life when they want to reflect and process the challenges they experience as older adults in the world. I am a person who keeps in mind that everyone comes from different places in the world, different belief systems, and different ways of being. Because of this, I will do my best to keep in mind that we all are of different ethnicity, different sexuality, and different cultures. My therapeutic style involves helping you find the tools and the best strategies to use to get your goals met. I do so in a client-centered, solution focused, and cognitive behavioral approach, meeting you—the client—wherever you are in your life.

I am licensed in Louisiana and Texas with 20 years of professional work experience. I have a Master of Education Degree in Community Counseling from The University of Louisiana at Monroe. I hold Louisiana license number 2935 as a Licensed Professional Counselor, Louisiana license number 858 as a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and Texas license number 77206 as a Licensed Professional Counselor. I am a Board Approved Supervisor of Provisional Licensed Professional Counselors (PLPCs) in Louisiana. I also hold Teletherapy Privilege. I approach counseling from a present focused and ecological perspective. I encourage clients to work towards self-awareness, being action and strength oriented in order to have the capacity to find within themselves the resources necessary to solve their problems and to discover the conditions that will make change possible. I accept a client’s immediate family relationships and larger social context as being important resources in solving life’s problems. I assist individuals in increasing their self-awareness through active techniques. Techniques that I often employ are instruction and modeling of communication skills, family role-playing, empty chair, fantasy work and between session interactive assignments. This “homework” is a vital part of the therapeutic process. The completion of homework is necessary if the client is to get the most from the therapeutic experience. I have experience working with adults who are experiencing difficulties in life that may include also having a mental health diagnosis. I believe that you are the expert of your story and that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming things that challenge you. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started!
