Elnora Crayton-Haliburton, LPC

Elnora Crayton-Haliburton is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas with more than 20 years of experience in counseling, teaching, and advising. She has worked with people of many ages on topics such as goal setting, stress and anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and abuse, relationship and family concerns, parenting challenges, anger, self-esteem, career transitions, bipolar disorder, and compassion fatigue.

Her background in academic settings has involved helping individuals with histories of ADHD, OCD, and ED develop practical strategies to succeed in school and other structured environments. She also brings extensive training in trauma-focused therapeutic techniques, including cognitive-behavioral therapy, and integrates those methods with a broader humanistic orientation.

Her style is warm and interactive, guided by an eclectic approach that is primarily Rogerian person-centered and humanistic. As an LPC - a credential that reflects graduate-level training and state licensure to provide psychotherapy - she combines evidence-informed methods such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and client-centered work to tailor support to each person. She aims to learn each client as an individual and to partner with them in reaching their therapeutic goals.

Therapeutic approaches for online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and take meaningful action while learning to accept uncomfortable thoughts and feelings. It can support coping with anxiety, depression, and major life changes by focusing on values and practical steps.

Client-Centered Therapy, rooted in Rogerian principles, emphasizes empathy, active listening, and respect for each person's experience. This approach helps people build self-understanding, increase confidence, and navigate relationship or self-esteem concerns through a collaborative, nonjudgmental relationship.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce distress and develop concrete coping skills. It is commonly used for mood disorders, anxiety, trauma-related symptoms, and problem-solving in daily life.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the therapeutic process. She will work collaboratively with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, and adjust the plan as progress is made.

Online therapy through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging offers flexibility for people with busy schedules, mobility limitations, or geographic constraints. These formats allow clients to connect with licensed professionals and therapists in ways that fit their communication style and daily life, making it easier to maintain regular sessions and apply skills between appointments.
