01About Elizabeth
Elizabeth Frietsch is a Licensed Professional Counselor who focuses on helping people recover from trauma and handle ongoing stress. She practices from Texas and brings four years of counseling experience to sessions. Her style is straightforward and practical, aimed at helping parents and adults who feel overwhelmed or stuck.
She uses approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and trauma-focused work to address symptoms that linger after difficult events. In sessions she helps people notice unhelpful thoughts, try small behavior changes, and practice ways to reduce anxious or depressed moods.
Background and approach
She also uses solution-focused techniques to set clear, achievable goals and track progress. Elizabeth has worked with people affected by sexual assault, domestic violence, and child abuse and has supported those coping with eating concerns, grief, and attachment worries. She also helps people facing compassion fatigue, workplace stress, and challenges related to parenting children who have experienced trauma.
Her experience includes navigating the Texas foster care system from a parental perspective. She aims to create a nonjudgmental space that affirms LGBTQIA+ people and those of diverse beliefs. Sessions are led with empathy and practical tools rather than long explanations.
Clients can expect concrete steps between meetings to practice new skills. Elizabeth balances clinical experience with lived parenting experience. That combination shapes how she approaches problem-solving and supports people trying to rebuild safety, connection, and daily functioning.

04Online support
How trauma-focused and goal-directed work translates online
Elizabeth uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people spot thoughts and behaviors that keep stress and anxiety going, then practices small changes to shift how they feel. Trauma-Focused Therapy is used to help process painful memories and reduce the ways past events show up in daily life. She also applies Solution-Focused Therapy to set clear, short-term goals and track practical steps toward them.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, symptoms, and preferences, and together they will try methods that match those needs. That plan can change over time depending on what helps most.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility. Video allows face-to-face interaction for skills practice and emotional work. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or when being off camera feels easier. Live chat or text can be used for brief check-ins or ongoing support between longer appointments, helping therapy fit around school, work, or parenting duties.
