About Betty
Betty Williams is a Licensed Professional Counselor with 14 years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Betty offers a calm, compassionate presence and makes space for honest conversation about difficult topics.
Her style is straightforward and supportive. Sessions focus on practical skills and clearer thinking. She listens first, then helps clients try tools that fit their situation and goals.
Over her career she has helped people with trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem, and relationship and intimacy-related concerns.
Background and approach
She also addresses parenting, anger, career questions, compassion fatigue, and attention-related challenges like ADHD. Betty uses a mix of evidence-based methods. Those include cognitive behavioral techniques to change unhelpful thinking, acceptance and commitment ideas for values-based action, and mindfulness practices to reduce reactivity.
She tailors those tools to each person’s needs. Clients describe therapy as a collaborative process focused on real-life changes. She supports people through difficult transitions such as divorce, adoption or foster care issues, midlife concerns, and financial or career stress.
Sessions also address caregiver strain, isolation, and questions about life purpose. Betty is licensed in Georgia as an LPC - GA LPC LPC006129. Sessions are offered in English and provided through a mix of video, phone, live chat, and text messaging.
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Betty commonly draws from cognitive behavioral therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy in online sessions. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying thoughts and behaviors that get in the way and teaching practical strategies to change them. Acceptance and commitment therapy, or ACT, helps clients clarify values and take meaningful action even when uncomfortable feelings are present.Choosing the right approach is collaborative. Betty listens to each person’s goals and adjusts methods to fit their needs and preferences. Together they track what helps and make changes over time to find the best path forward.
Online therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These formats make it easier to fit sessions into busy days and to get support from home or work. The variety of options also allows for short check-ins or longer conversations, depending on what a client needs.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.
Client-Centered Therapy
The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
