Elizabeth Martinez Acuna
Licensed Professional Counselor | 20+ Years of Healing
Elizabeth is a licensed mental health counselor providing virtual therapy for adults across Texas and Ohio. For more than 20 years, she has helped individuals overcome anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship struggles, grief, and major life transitions through compassionate, research-based care.
Her Journey
Elizabeth began her career serving with social services and the family and juvenile court system, experiences that ignited her commitment to helping people heal and led her to formal studies in social work, sociology, and psychology.
She later gained extensive experience facilitating prison-based programs and supporting children and families impacted by incarceration. For more than two decades, she has empowered people to recognize their strengths, rebuild resilience, and create meaningful change.
Her Philosophy
As a telehealth therapist, Elizabeth provides counseling that is warm, collaborative, and deeply person-centered. She believes healing happens when people feel safe to be seen and heard without judgment. Her approach focuses on understanding the whole person — mind, body, spirit, and behavior — and how each part influences overall wellbeing.
No matter the method, she believes the most powerful part of therapy is the authentic connection built with each client.
“You don’t have to walk through your pain alone. Healing begins the moment you feel safe enough to be honest — and I’m here to build that space with you.”

Whether seeking help for anxiety, depression, grief, or relationship issues, Elizabeth works collaboratively with each client to achieve meaningful progress in a supportive environment.
