About Elizabeth

Elizabeth Mabonga is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 10 years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship concerns, and LGBTQ+ related issues, including gender dysphoria and identity questions.

She helps people who are carrying guilt or shame about things they did or didn’t do, or about who they are. She also supports those dealing with caregiver stress, compassion fatigue, parenting strain, and isolation or loneliness. Her approach foregrounds the client's own expertise about their life.

In sessions she uses practical, conversational methods. That can include cognitive behavioral techniques to spot and shift unhelpful thinking. She also uses client-centered listening to reflect what matters most to the person in front of her.

Mindfulness practices and solution-focused tools appear when they fit a person's goals. Motivational interviewing can be used to clarify next steps when someone feels stuck. These methods are woven into a straightforward, goal-oriented way of working.

Elizabeth invites people to notice strengths they already have and build on them. She asks questions, offers feedback, and practices skills alongside clients. Her stated aim is to support people until they feel able to carry on without regular sessions.

She offers services in English and accepts international clients. Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters most to the person. It helps people feel understood and clarifies what they want to change or keep. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify patterns of thinking that keep guilt or shame active and supports learning small, practical steps to test new ways of thinking and behaving.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Elizabeth will collaborate with the client to decide which combination of methods fits their goals and preferences. That choice can change over time as symptoms, circumstances, or priorities shift.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week, reduce travel time, or allow shorter check-ins when needed. Therapists can use these formats to help people practice skills between sessions and to keep momentum while balancing daily life.
