About Betty

Betty Collins is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with 28 years of clinical experience helping adults navigate major life transitions and personal challenges. She combines counseling and life coaching skills to support clients in reclaiming authenticity and building a more satisfying life.

Background and approach

Her work emphasizes growth for individuals and couples, with particular attention to women’s issues, relationship concerns, and transitions that affect work, family, and personal identity. Collins uses a flexible, multifaceted approach that draws on client-centered principles, cognitive behavioral ideas, and solution-focused techniques to tailor care to each person’s needs.

She also incorporates elements from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Emotionally-Focused Therapy when those methods fit a client’s goals. Her practice addresses a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, addictions, ADHD, self-esteem, and workplace or career challenges.

In sessions she prioritizes attentive listening, reflective feedback, and collaboration so clients can identify obstacles and take practical steps toward change. Prospective clients are invited to consider counseling as a process for discovering strengths and making intentional choices toward a life they value.

Approaches That Guide Online Work and Support

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients clarify personal values and commit to actions that align with those values while learning to accept difficult thoughts and sensations rather than fighting them; it can be useful for stress, life transitions, and making meaningful changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors through practical skills and experiments, which often helps with anxiety, depression, and impulse-related concerns. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) centers on understanding and shifting emotional responses to improve closeness and connection, making it valuable for relationship and intimacy issues.

Choosing the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. The therapist works with each client to explore goals, preferences, and the problems they want to address, and then recommends which methods might be most helpful while remaining open to adjustments as progress unfolds.

Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules. These formats allow clients to access licensed professionals from different locations, continue ongoing work during life transitions, and use modes of communication that feel most comfortable for them.
