About Betty

Betty Williams is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 14 years of experience. She offers a calm, caring presence for people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, or changes in relationships and work. Clients meet a therapist who listens closely and helps set clear, practical goals.

Her style is warm and straightforward. She creates space for people to talk about parenting strains, adoption and foster care concerns, trauma, or problems at work. Sessions focus on small, usable steps that fit into daily life rather than long lectures or jargon.

Therapy may include techniques drawn from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to change unhelpful thoughts and build values-based habits. Mindfulness and Dialectical Behavior Therapy strategies are also used when they match a person's needs. The emphasis is on what helps day-to-day functioning and emotional balance.

Betty pays attention to relationships, intimacy-related issues, and communication problems. She also supports people dealing with caregiver stress, compassion fatigue, and money or career worries. Concerns like impulsivity, body image, and feelings of abandonment are addressed with practical coping tools.

Sessions are conducted in English and follow the LPC scope of practice. People who want to begin can complete a short questionnaire to match with her, then schedule according to availability. The goal is steady progress through achievable skills and collaborative planning.

How therapeutic approaches guide online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people clarify what matters to them and take small actions toward those values while accepting difficult thoughts and feelings. This approach is often used for anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at unhelpful thinking patterns and teaches practical strategies to change them, which can ease depression, worry, and mood problems. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and grounding practices to reduce reactivity and improve emotional balance.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That may mean using one approach more at first and adjusting over time based on what helps.

Confirm the current online session options before booking because specific formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people practice skills in the settings where they live and work, which can speed up applying new habits to everyday life.
