More about Elizabeth
- 9 years' experience

- LPC
Hi. My name is Elizabeth and I am a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in the state of Texas. I am also a certified school counselor and recently transitioned to BetterHelp full-time after working as a counselor at a high school. I have been working as a counselor for 9 years, primarily in the school setting. I have helped my students with issues such as family problems, academic struggles, relationship issues, trauma/abuse, ADHD, autism, LGBT-issues, depression, anxiety, perfectionism, grief, and suicidal ideation. Before working as a counselor, I was an elementary teacher for 6 years.
I have experience working with adults and adolescents. I have been a counselor on Better Help for 3 years now and have loved seeing my clients understand themselves better and improve their mental health. This is why I have transitioned to working with BetterHelp full-time. I feel comfortable counseling people from a variety of backgrounds, especially those whose backgrounds are different than my own. My entire professional career has been spent with a primarily Hispanic population, but I am comfortable with other cultures, as well.
I am a big fan of CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) and Solutions-focused therapy, but I try to cater my counseling to each client, so I often incorporate different counseling philosophies as needed. As a school counselor, I had many duties not related to counseling. I joined BetterHelp, so I could use my counseling skills to help more people. I am looking forward to meeting with clients and working together to improve their mental health. I also know how hard it can be to find a time to meet with a counselor, so I offer limited after-work sessions, for your convenience, in addition to 8am-5pm sessions.
I believe my clients are the experts on their own lives and I want to work with them to improve their contentment, coping skills, and mental health. I believe it is very important and beneficial to have a nonjudgmental, unbiased person to talk to. This is one of the best parts of counseling. I often use humor to lighten the mood when counseling. I find this helps grow my relationships with my clients. Congratulations on making the first step towards counseling by checking out this website. I would love to work with you.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Elizabeth is great I’m glad I chose her.
Easily available and responds in a timely manner
Elizabeth has been so incredibly easy to work with. She is fast responding and always has lots of availability.
Best therapy I've ever received, I've always been skeptical about therapy for my ADHD, anxiety, depression, and mental trauma,but with Wlizabeth I've learned to manage it all.
She’s great. I highly recommend.
She is the best person that I’ve met who’s been able to help me we’ve only had three sessions and I’m already feeling better. I’ve gone my whole life since middle school without friends and it’s three sessions. She got me to break out of my shell and talk to my old friends so I strongly strongly recommend her.
Elizabeth has been amazing. She knows the right blend of humor and compassion I need from a therapist and has really helped pull me out of a bad spot in my life.
Elizabeth is awesome. She has helped me so much with reframing my negative thought patterns. She has really good ideas for creative ways to help me to handle my anxiety, and also genuinely cares. I would highly recommend her as a therapist!
The best therapist I have ever worked with!
Elizabeth has changed my life and I’m so thankful. She is kind, thoughtful and supportive and also challenges me. I genuinely appreciate her insight and expertise and I’m so glad to have such a wonderful therapist.
We had 3 calls. I would say good support. Felt better after each call.
Elizabeth always checks in on me when it’s been a little while if I don’t check in first. I love the accountability. She listens well, and is patient.
She is a kind person that Listens to my problems and helps lay out ways in small steps to solve them. I love working with her.
This is the first time I take therapy and I am glad I did I've never been this good and comfortable with myself
I like that she listens and doesn't judge. We even joke occasionally
Elizabeth is always quick to listen, hear the whole story and help me rationalize it. Her tips and words are so helpful!
Elizabeth has been great! She listens to everything I have to say and then responds with care and empathy. I love how up front she is and how she doesn’t sugar coat. It’s definitely what I need.
Elizabeth has been the best person for me to process this phase of my life with. She is great at listening and keeping me accountable in my progress. I am so thankful for my experience with her.
Elizabeth has helped me in ways I didn’t know possible, with a gentle touch she helps to shift my perspective of life and myself, become more positive and self fulfilling, she’s always open to my crazy ideas and stories even if they are irrational she will listen and then explain why, I love her
Helpful and listen to what i have to say
She has been amazing! I have been doing therapy for the last 6 months with her, and it has honestly been so good for my mental health. I'm not sure where I would be today if it wasn't for my decision to do therapy and be partnered up with such a great therapist like Elizabeth Stanley!
Very good listener. Helpful sharing solutions to problems. Very empathetic. I’ve enjoyed talking with her & sharing my story in a judge free zone.
Elizabeth has been tremendously helpful and caring from my very first session with her! Her thoughtfulness and attention to detail continue to help me work through problems that have seemed insurmountable in the past.
My Therapist is fantastic. I've had a weird life, but she's never been judgemental. Great Therapist and all around nice lady!
I feel heard and understood. My therapist provides me with a very safe space to talk about my worries. I’m given great practical advice
I'm lucky to have been matched with Elizabeth first. She is a great listener, asks the right questions, and give awesome actionable advice without coming off as pushy or judgemental. She's a gentle soul and I can tell she really cares.
She’s great! I love that she checks in throughout the week and sends Monday motivation !!
Very understanding. Makes it comfortable to talk with her. Not at all what I expected from therapy. I'm so happy I signed up.
She's awesome
Elizabeth is great and she has helped me a lot.
Love having her as my therapist!
She's fantastic, and listens even when I'm rambling
Elizabeth is reliable, considerate and genuinely cares.
i think ms. elizabeth is the best! i’m new to therapy and so far she has made me feel so welcomed! i love how well she listens and doesn’t make me feel stupid for feeling the feelings i feel, lol.
i love it when someone tells me i’m in the wrong and is just honest with me . she creates a comfortable space to be able to word vomit and express everything no matter how silly it may be and she listens and responds in a very honest and transparent way . I would highly recommend her if you’re someone that will actually listen to the advice given to you .
After visiting with four other therapists and couldn’t find a good fit I felt that I “clicked” with Elizabeth from our first visit. She has been a great help so far helping me through my struggles. She even checks in on me to see how my week and weekend are going.
She has helped clarify exactly what my challenges were and how to overcome them.
Working with Elizabeth has been the best experience I have ever had with therapy. My life has been changed in so many positive ways in the past several months. She has connected with me in a meaningful way and has struck the perfect balance of supporting me while also pushing me to keep growing. I look forward to our sessions as they're a grounding time. I've renewed my confidence and rediscovered happiness with her help.
She is awesome
Elizabeth is fantastic!! She listens with a fair ear. Even though she is on your side she is able to give an objective point of view which I love. I feel like I am her support 100%
I have improved in many ways since beginning therapy with her. I credit much of my positive growth to her encouragement and strategies
Elizabeth is the most amazing therapist that I've ever met. I learned a lot of tools/knowledge from her, and she's so easy to talk to. I feel so comfortable talking about everything with her. I'm so grateful for the experience, and I hope you'll like her as I do. I wish everyone a healthy and peaceful mind
Elizabeth is a fantastic listener, has down to earth insights, and makes conversation flow easily. As someone with social anxiety and an introverted personality type, I often find it quite difficult opening up about my feelings to others. However, I have felt at great ease speaking with Elizabeth from Day 1. One thing I greatly appreciate is how she challenges me to turn my negative self-talk and anxious feelings back on themselves — "putting them on trial," as she puts it. I've never had a therapist before who made me feel so much like I was confiding in a longtime friend, rather than speaking to some rigid, impersonal professional. I would highly recommend Elizabeth's services to anyone seeking an empathetic and thoughtful person to help with anything you might be going through on your mental health journey.
Elizabeth is amazing and a great listener. I tend to ramble at times but she never complains
Elizabeth is absolutely amazing I'm really glad she's my therapist. Elizabeth listens to me and gives me really good advice to help me work on myself.
She's always on time and very understanding in terms of issues and tough situations. I have only had positive interactions thus far.
She is perhaps the best therapist I've ever had, and I've had a few, so, there is a frame of reference there. She's great
She listens to me. Tries to understand me and my situation.
I love my therapist! She is so laid back and fun to talk to. I feel like I'm just catching up with a friend when we talk. I have learned so much about myself and why I do things and I truly believe I am on the right path to better myself with the help of Elizabeth Stanley and betterhelp.
Elizabeth has helped me through some of the toughest times of my life. She really has helped me overcome alot of my fears or at least given me ways to combat them. Anyone who is wondering if therapy is for them or is nervous about trying it. Do yourself a favour and sign up, you will thank yourself for doing so.
She's wonderful, and helps me greatly. I've got a lot to work through, and she's someone I actually trust to help me get through it
Elizabeth has really helped me in coping with everything I am going through.
She's good at listening when I ramble, and is great at making me feel like I'm not just whining, and that my pain is valid. She's also great at offering solutions
One of the best I’ve ever talked to I wish I could see her in person
Elizabeth Stanley is a wonderful therapist. She really addressed my needs and every session thus far has shown wonderful progress. Very thankful for her
Really good person always has the time to listen even when I had my really bad moments she took the time to talk and is honestly really good and I cannot fault what she does
