Elisabeth Zaragoza, LPC

Elisabeth Zaragoza is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with 16 years of experience working directly with individuals, couples and families. She brings focused clinical experience helping people navigate depression, anxiety, relationship concerns, grief, parenting challenges and life transitions, as well as issues related to intimacy, self-esteem, career stress and ADHD. Her training also includes certification as a Grief Educator through study with David Kessler, which informs her work supporting people through losses both large and small.

Elisabeth emphasizes a warm, inviting therapeutic atmosphere where clients can move at their own pace and explore their experiences without pressure. She integrates client-centered methods that honor each person’s perspective, alongside solution-focused and narrative techniques that help clients identify strengths, clarify goals and reframe unhelpful stories. Motivational interviewing informs her work when people seek support to make meaningful changes.

Her approach is practical and collaborative - aiming to help clients develop coping skills, build hope and discover clearer pathways forward. Personal roles as a wife and mother of two, and life experiences such as parenting a premature infant and grieving the loss of her mother, shape her empathy and understanding of how family dynamics and loss affect daily life. Elisabeth aims to stand beside clients as they work toward healing and renewed direction.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Elisabeth frequently draws on client-centered therapy, which focuses on understanding each person from their own perspective and creating a respectful, nonjudgmental space for exploration. This approach is useful for building self-awareness, improving relationships and working through emotional distress.

She also uses motivational interviewing to support clients who want to make changes but feel uncertain or stuck. This collaborative, goal-oriented method helps clarify values and increase motivation for practical steps forward.

Narrative therapy is another tool Elisabeth employs to help clients reframe personal stories and separate identity from problems, which can be especially helpful for people coping with grief, role changes or shifting family dynamics.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Elisabeth works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods best match their needs, goals and preferences, adjusting strategies as progress unfolds.

Online therapy with Elisabeth offers flexible options - video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging - so clients can choose formats that fit their schedules and comfort levels. These modalities make it easier to access licensed professionals from home, work or while traveling, supporting continuity of care and convenience in a range of life circumstances.
