About Betty
Betty Collins is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 28 years of experience. She works with adults on issues such as stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting challenges, grief, trauma and anger. She also supports people dealing with career questions, addictions, ADHD, self-esteem struggles and major life changes.
She uses several therapy approaches to help people make practical changes. Sessions focus on clear goals and real skills rather than abstract theory. She combines client-centered listening with structured tools to help people manage impulses, improve communication, and rebuild trust in relationships.
Her background includes work as a counselor and life coach, plus training in mediation and collaborative law counseling facilitation. That experience informs how she helps clients address conflict, separation, and blended family issues. She also works with workplace concerns and performance-related stress for professionals and students.
In session she guides conversations, reflects what she hears, and helps people test new behaviors. Methods may include acceptance and commitment ideas, cognitive-behavioral strategies, and emotion-focused techniques to address patterns that keep causing pain. Practical homework and skill practice are common parts of the work.
She describes counseling as a process of discovering the challenges you face and taking steps toward change. People who want straightforward, skills-based help with anger, communication, or life transitions may find this approach useful.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts without getting swept away by them and then take actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, anger that feeds avoidance, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and teaches concrete skills to change unhelpful patterns - useful for anger, depression and workplace stress. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes being heard and understood; that listening helps people feel clearer about next steps and more willing to try new behaviors.Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. She will discuss your goals and preferences and together you will decide which approaches to try. That collaboration means techniques can shift as needs change, for example moving from skill-building to deeper emotion work when appropriate.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the available online options before booking. Many people find online sessions easier to fit into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or remove travel time. In online sessions the focus is on using ACT and CBT tools, practicing communication skills, and planning real-world steps you can try between meetings.
