About Betsy

Betsy Salomon-Auguste is an Illinois Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) with 22 years of experience. She works with people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship struggles, grief, parenting concerns, and anger. Sessions are conducted in English and she accepts international clients.

Her approach focuses on practical conversations that help people recognize patterns that keep them stuck. She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address anxiety, anger, and the fallout from trauma and abuse. Betsy helps clients talk through communication problems, intimacy issues, and feelings of shame or guilt.

She also supports people facing life transitions like career change, midlife questions, and caregiver stress. Practical skills and clearer thinking are common parts of her work. She pays attention to how past hurts - including abandonment or infidelity - shape present reactions.

Betsy helps people who identify as LGBT and those navigating immigration-related stress. She addresses fatherhood issues, aging and geriatric concerns, and the strain of caregiving. Conversations can include forgiveness, rebuilding trust, and finding purpose.

To get started clients use a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session. Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. Confirm current session options before booking.

How sessions work

How evidence-based approaches translate to online sessions

Evidence-based therapeutic techniques aim to change patterns that keep problems looping. One common approach focuses on identifying thoughts and behaviors that escalate anger and replaces them with clearer responses. This helps with workplace frustration, snapping at loved ones, and lingering resentment.

Another approach works on processing trauma and its emotional fallout. It helps people understand how past events influence reactions now, and supports steady steps toward calmer responses and healthier communication.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy. The therapist will work collaboratively with the client to choose methods that fit the client’s goals, needs, and preferences. That means checking what helps most in early sessions and adjusting plans over time.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm the current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for more flexible scheduling. Different formats also let people choose shorter check-ins or longer deeper work depending on what fits their day.
