About Elizabeth

Elizabeth Frietsch is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas who focuses on helping people cope with trauma, anxiety, and stress. She describes a calm, nonjudgmental approach and makes space for heavy topics. Her work often connects to parenting and career concerns, and she brings practical help for eating issues, grief, and low self-esteem.

She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy to create short-term goals and clearer patterns of thinking. Trauma-Focused Therapy is used when past harm keeps showing up in daily life. Sessions typically include concrete strategies, pacing to match what feels manageable, and attention to how relationships and parenting shape healing.

Elizabeth has four years of clinical experience and a background in education and social services. That experience informs her work with people affected by sexual assault, domestic violence, and child abuse, and with those who struggle with depression, grief, or isolation. She also supports people facing caregiver stress and compassion fatigue.

As a foster and adoptive parent, she knows some of the specific strains that come from navigating foster care in Texas. She is familiar with Trust-Based Relational Intervention, a parenting approach used with children who have experienced early harm, and often discusses parenting strategies alongside individual therapy goals.

Sessions are offered in English. International clients are not currently accepted. Before booking, readers should confirm current session options and scheduling details through the site's Start Therapy process.

How these approaches shape online therapy

Elizabeth commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thinking and try new behaviors; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and some eating concerns. Solution-Focused Therapy is practical and goal-oriented, focusing on small steps people can take now to feel better. Trauma-Focused Therapy centers on processing past harm and reducing how much traumatic reminders affect daily life.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, what feels manageable, and which methods fit their situation. That collaborative process guides whether a CBT focus, solution-oriented tasks, or trauma-focused pacing is most useful.

The biography does not specify session formats, so confirm options before booking. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into busy schedules, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let someone keep therapy during job or parenting demands by cutting commute time and offering more flexible timing. Licensed professionals adapt methods so sessions remain practical and focused, helping clients apply what they work on into everyday life.
