Elizabeth Huber, PhDPartner / Therapist
Liz is a licensed psychologist in Texas and holds interjurisdictional authority to practice in most other states through PSYPACT. She earned her doctorate in clinical psychology from UT Southwestern Medical Center and completed her APA-accredited pre-doctoral internship at the Eating Disorder Services Unit at Children's Medical Center Dallas and Counseling Services at Southern Methodist University. She previously earned a master's degree in psychology from the University of Dallas and a BA with honors in Plan II and Spanish from the University of Texas at Austin.
Before becoming a psychologist, Liz pursued a career in finance in New York City and Dallas. Her experience in the corporate world continues to inform her work, particularly with patients navigating demanding careers, relationships, family life, and questions of identity and purpose. She believes fulfillment is often found at the intersection of passion and aptitude, and she helps patients better understand and develop the intrinsic strengths that can lead to richer personal and professional lives.
Liz now divides her professional time between supervising other clinicians and maintaining a limited individual therapy practice. Keeping a streamlined caseload allows her to remain deeply engaged in each patient's work and to provide the thoughtful, individualized care that is central to her approach.
Liz's clinical interests center on self-esteem, identity, and relationships and include anxiety, depression, disordered eating, antepartum and postpartum concerns, and substance use disorders. She is particularly interested in the role of shame in identity formation and relationships—and in helping patients understand how this powerful emotion can quietly shape the way they see themselves, relate to others, and experience love and belonging.
Liz's approach to therapy is primarily psychodynamic. She partners with patients to explore aspects of themselves that may not yet be fully understood and to develop insight into the past experiences, relationships, and unconscious patterns that influence their lives today. She also incorporates cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness when helpful, particularly to build greater capacity for experiencing difficult thoughts and emotions with compassion rather than judgment.
While reducing distress is an important goal of therapy, Liz's work extends beyond symptom relief. She focuses on helping patients develop greater self-awareness, more satisfying relationships, a more integrated sense of self, and greater confidence in their own judgment and strengths. Ultimately, her goal is for patients to leave therapy with the insight and self-reliance to lead richer, more fulfilling lives.
Liz believes quality mental healthcare should be available to people of varied backgrounds and experiences, and she intentionally maintains a practice that welcomes diversity in age, gender identity, ethnicity, socioeconomic background, sexual orientation, and religious or non-religious beliefs.
Outside of her work, Liz enjoys cooking, yoga, gardening, and spending time with family and friends. Most weekends, you can find her on the sidelines or in the stands cheering on her kids at their latest sporting events.
