Great to meet you!

Lizet Lopez-Longoria is more than a therapist—she’s a compassionate guide who meets clients where they are with warmth, respect, and insight. As a Licensed Professional Counselor and founder of Balanced Therapy Center, PLLC, Lizet brings over a decade of experience helping children, teens, and adults heal and grow through life’s most difficult moments.

Clients often describe Lizet as grounded, creative, and deeply attuned. She integrates Expressive Arts, Play Therapy, and Lifespan Integration to support healing in a way that feels both safe and transformative. Lizet is trained in Polyvagal Theory, which means she prioritizes nervous system regulation and whole-person care—helping clients not just cope, but feel more connected to themselves and others.

Whether you're navigating trauma, grief, anxiety, or major life transitions, Lizet creates a nonjudgmental space for exploration and empowerment. Her sessions are personalized, culturally sensitive, and focused on helping you tap into your inner resilience and wisdom.

With Lizet, therapy isn’t just about managing symptoms—it’s about discovering your voice, your story, and your strength.

My approach to therapy

As a therapist, Lizet’s style is rooted in a person-centered approach, which means she believes deeply in your capacity for growth, healing, and self-discovery. She offers a warm, nonjudgmental, and compassionate space where you are seen and heard just as you are—because true change begins with feeling safe and accepted.

At the heart of Lizet’s work is the understanding that healing happens in relationship—with ourselves and with others. She doesn’t just sit back and listen; she gently guides you as you begin to reconnect with your inner self, helping you move from survival mode into deeper self-awareness, calm, and clarity.

Using trauma-informed practices, including insights from polyvagal theory, Lizet helps clients understand how their nervous system responds to stress, fear, or past trauma. Together, you’ll explore how patterns of fight, flight, freeze, or fawn may have helped you survive—but may now be keeping you stuck. Lizet integrates tools to help regulate your nervous system, restore a sense of safety in your body, and support lasting emotional balance.

Whether you’re working through anxiety, trauma, relationship challenges, or simply seeking more alignment in your life, Lizet will walk beside you with empathy and intention—always honoring your pace while gently guiding you back to your authentic, empowered self.
