About Elizabeth

Elizabeth Sims brings a practical, strengths-based approach to therapy grounded in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and complementary methods. As a licensed professional counselor in Texas (LPC), she draws on four years of clinical experience to help people manage anxiety, depression, stress, grief, anger, and ADHD-related challenges.

Background and approach

Elizabeth frames clients as the experts in their own lives and works to amplify existing strengths while teaching skills to reduce distress and improve daily functioning. Her practice emphasizes collaboration and respect, guiding each person through problem-solving and coping strategies tailored to their situation.

Clients seeking help with communication difficulties, codependency, impulsivity, post-traumatic stress, forgiveness work, or women’s issues will find practical tools and focused support. Elizabeth describes beginning therapy as a courageous step and aims to make the process both approachable and goal-oriented.

She offers a compassionate presence while helping people develop concrete strategies to move toward a more fulfilling life.

Evidence-Informed Methods and Flexible Online Care

Elizabeth uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop practical coping skills that reduce symptoms and improve daily routines. Mindfulness Therapy complements this work by teaching present-moment awareness and stress-reduction practices that can support emotional regulation and responses to anxiety and grief.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey, and Elizabeth emphasizes collaboration in determining what methods best match a client's needs, goals, and preferences. She partners with clients to try techniques, monitor what helps, and adjust the plan so therapy stays focused and personally meaningful.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care while balancing work, family, and other commitments, and they allow licensed professionals to deliver consistent, goal-oriented support across many situations.
