About Elizabeth
Elizabeth "Liz" Hummert is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker practicing in Texas with two decades of experience. She brings a practical, down-to-earth style to sessions and focuses on helping people make manageable changes. Liz aims to create a calm space where clients can talk through hard things and find clearer ways forward.
She began her social work career after earning a Master of Science in Social Work from the University of Texas at Arlington in 2004.
Background and approach
Over twenty years she has worked in multiple settings with people facing trauma, grief, addiction, and mood concerns. That background includes work with first responders and people coping with serious loss or abuse. In sessions she tends to be straightforward and collaborative.
She uses conversations to uncover what is most pressing, then helps clients try practical steps to reduce stress or shift unhelpful patterns. She also draws on approaches that focus on personal stories and on small goal-oriented changes. Liz often supports people dealing with parenting stress, relationship strain, anxiety, depression, and challenges connected to family of origin.
She also addresses issues related to domestic violence, post-traumatic stress, and young adult transitions. The focus is on what the client wants to change and how to get there. She offers several online formats that fit different needs, so people can pick what works best for their schedule.
To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and choose a time to meet.
Therapeutic approaches and online options that fit your life
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building a respectful space. The therapist helps you name what matters most and follows your goals rather than imposing a plan. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep stress or low mood going and teaches practical strategies to change them. Narrative Therapy invites people to tell their story and identify new meanings, which can help with grief, identity concerns, and life transitions.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide which methods to try based on goals and preferences. That might mean mixing short-term, goal-focused techniques with longer discussion about personal history and values.
Online therapy offers several ways to meet so sessions fit a busy life. Video calls let people see one another and have deeper conversations. Phone sessions can be a good fit when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for quick check-ins, shorter reflections between sessions, or when scheduling regular written contact is easier. These options make it simpler to keep therapy consistent around work, childcare, or irregular shifts.
