About Elizabeth
Elizabeth Barrera-Sepulveda is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with more than two decades of experience. She offers steady listening and practical support to help people manage strong emotions and move toward calmer days. Her approach aims to help people find clearer steps forward for the problems they bring to sessions.
She brings 22 years of work in counseling settings, including inpatient and outpatient behavioral health. That background includes work with people facing depression, anxiety, bipolar mood issues, substance use concerns, and anger.
Background and approach
She has also supported survivors of sexual assault and domestic violence and worked with people coping after disasters and other traumatic events. Elizabeth uses client-centered methods to shape sessions around each person's needs. She draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to help people notice and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns.
Solution-focused and motivational strategies are used when people want clear, short-term goals and steps to reach them. Her practice includes experience facilitating groups and providing crisis support at shelters. That work has informed her way of helping people who feel overwhelmed by grief, guilt, shame, relationship strain, or the stress of life changes.
She emphasizes practical tools that people can use between sessions. Sessions are offered in English and organized to fit what each person needs, whether that means talking through past trauma or building coping skills for everyday stress.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening closely and following the person's lead to decide what matters most. It helps when someone needs a therapist who responds to their pace and priorities rather than imposing a fixed plan.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. In practice this means identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and trying specific behavior changes to reduce anxiety, depression, or anger symptoms.
Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on understanding and reducing the ongoing effects of traumatic experiences. It uses gentle, paced work to help people manage triggers and build coping strategies for post-traumatic stress and related concerns.
Choosing the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will work with each person to match methods to their goals and comfort level, and they will adjust the plan over time based on what helps most.
Online sessions are offered by licensed professionals through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is useful for full conversations and visual connection, phone calls can be easier when internet bandwidth varies, live chat can fit quick check-ins, and text messaging supports brief reflections or ongoing coaching between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to keep continuity of care when travel or timing changes occur.
