About Elizabeth
Elizabeth Marcum is a licensed clinical social worker in Texas with six years of experience helping people through difficult life moments. She focuses on addictions, relationship and family concerns, intimacy challenges, and low self-esteem. Elizabeth aims to make therapy a straightforward place to talk and be honest without judgment.
Her approach emphasizes practical, evidence-based techniques that people can use between sessions. She helps clients untangle patterns that fuel codependency, abandonment worries, and attachment difficulties.
How Elizabeth works
Work may include building confidence, improving intimacy, or finding purpose after a major change. Elizabeth also supports people managing chronic pain, illness, or disability, and those coping with grief, hospice needs, or HIV/AIDS related concerns. She brings experience with drug and alcohol addiction and the emotional fallout of divorce and separation.
Sessions often address guilt, shame, isolation, and the search for forgiveness. Clients can expect a calm, direct style focused on small, achievable steps. Elizabeth uses conversation and structured tools to help people notice patterns, try new behaviors, and measure progress.
She encourages realistic goals and practical coping strategies that fit everyday life. Therapy sessions are offered in English and use formats such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. To begin, people select the Start Therapy button, fill out a brief matching questionnaire, and schedule sessions according to therapist availability.

How evidence-based approaches fit with online therapy
Elizabeth uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques in plain, usable ways. One common approach focuses on identifying unhelpful patterns and replacing them with new behaviors. This helps with addiction, codependency, and repeated relationship problems by breaking cycles and practicing alternatives.Another approach centers on skills for managing strong emotions and building self-worth. That work can include setting small goals, practicing clear communication, and building routines that support better mood and healthier connections. These skills are helpful for low motivation, shame, and intimacy-related worries.
Choosing the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will talk with the client about their needs, goals, and preferences and suggest techniques to try. They check in and adjust the plan over time so the work stays practical and relevant.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video lets people read facial cues and practice conversation patterns. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging offer flexibility for quick reflections and ongoing support between scheduled sessions.
