Elizabeth "Liz" Hummert, LCSW

Elizabeth "Liz" Hummert is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Texas with two decades of experience in counseling. She began her social work training with a Master of Science in Social Work from the University of Texas at Arlington in 2004. Liz focuses on helping people who are facing stress and anxiety alongside related concerns like grief, relationship strain, and parenting challenges.

She has worked in many settings over 20 years, supporting people after trauma, loss, and other difficult life changes. Her background includes work with survivors of abuse and with first responders and their loved ones. That range of experience informs a practical approach to day-to-day problems.

In sessions she favors clear, collaborative conversations. She uses Client-Centered methods to follow what matters most to each person. She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice patterns and build different habits.

Liz makes space for stories and meaning using Narrative Therapy and keeps goals focused and manageable with Solution-Focused techniques. For people processing trauma, she incorporates trauma-focused methods aimed at helping them move forward at a comfortable pace.

Her style is open-minded and straightforward. She works with people on stress, anxiety, mood concerns, addictions, issues around self-esteem, and family or parenting struggles. Prospective clients should confirm current session options before booking.

How her approaches translate to online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following what matters most to the person. In practice this means sessions begin with the client's priorities and pace, and the therapist offers reflections and questions to clarify goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and uses practical exercises to change patterns. It can help with anxiety, stress, low mood, and coping skills.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences and suggest which methods to try first. Adjustments are made over time based on what helps most, so the plan can change as progress and priorities shift.

Confirm the current session options before booking, since formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people use video or phone when that best fits their schedule and energy. The therapist works with clients to set a rhythm that suits their everyday life and goals.
