About Elizabeth
Elizabeth "Liz" Hummert is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with two decades of counseling experience. She practices from Texas and uses a practical, conversational style to help people facing difficult life events. Liz writes plainly and listens closely to understand each person's story before planning next steps.
She trained at the University of Texas at Arlington, earning a Master of Science in Social Work. Over 20 years she has worked in varied settings and seen many kinds of struggles, including trauma, grief, and substance concerns.
Background and approach
Her background includes work with first responder issues and related stressors. Liz blends narrative ideas with client-centered care and cognitive behavioral techniques. That means she helps people map the stories they tell about themselves and then test small changes in daily life.
Sessions often focus on clear, manageable steps and on what matters most to the person in front of her. Her approach is straightforward and adaptable. She uses solution-focused and trauma-focused tools when they fit the situation, and she tailors sessions to practical concerns like parenting, relationships, and coping with change.
Liz aims for short-term goals when useful, while also addressing deeper patterns over time. People who prefer calm discussion, concrete strategies, and respect for their personal narrative tend to find her style helpful. She offers video, phone, chat, and text options to make continuing care easier alongside busy schedules.

How narrative and practical therapies work online
Elizabeth uses Narrative Therapy to help people look at the stories they tell about themselves and their lives. That work focuses on separating the problem from the person and finding new, more helpful storylines that support change. She also uses Client-Centered Therapy which emphasizes listening, empathy, and meeting each person where they are to build trust and clarity.She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and looks for small changes that make daily life easier. These approaches are useful for issues like trauma responses, anxiety, grief, parenting stress, and coping with life changes.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. She will collaborate with each person to decide what methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That might mean starting with short-term, solution-focused steps and shifting to trauma-focused or narrative work when deeper exploration is needed.
Online sessions are offered by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to match different needs. Video lets you use face-to-face conversation, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat works for quick check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life.
