About Elizabeth
Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with four years of experience, Elizabeth Frietsch focuses on trauma-related concerns, anxiety, grief, and eating issues. She works with adolescents and adults who have experienced sexual assault, domestic violence, or child abuse, and supports people facing depression, attachment and intimacy fears, and parenting stress. Elizabeth also brings experience with foster and adoptive parenting challenges in Texas.
Her approach combines Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, and Trauma-Focused Therapy. She uses practical techniques to help people notice unhelpful thoughts, introduce small changes, and address trauma reminders that continue to affect daily life. Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented, with attention to immediate coping and longer-term patterns.
Elizabeth has worked in education and social services. That background informs how she addresses compassion fatigue and burnout. She is familiar with the Texas foster care system and the challenges parents face when caring for children who have experienced trauma.
She welcomes people across the LGBT spectrum and those with different or no religious beliefs. Her experience as a foster and adoptive parent shapes her understanding of parenting stress and attachment concerns. Elizabeth describes herself as nonjudgmental and affirming when handling difficult or sensitive topics.
People can expect a pragmatic, attentive style that focuses on clear goals and steps. Elizabeth helps identify coping strategies, reduce distressing reminders of the past, and work toward manageable changes in mood, eating, and relationships.

How her approaches shape online work
Elizabeth uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice patterns of thinking that increase anxiety or low mood and to try small behavior changes that can reduce distress. Solution-Focused Therapy focuses sessions on concrete goals and next steps, which can make short-term progress easier to track. Trauma-Focused Therapy addresses the reminders and reactions that follow traumatic events and aims to lessen their hold on day-to-day life.Choosing the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful and will adjust methods over time. Clients and the therapist work together to pick techniques that fit current needs and longer-term aims.
