Betty Collins , LPC

Betty Collins is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with 28 years of experience helping adults and couples navigate life transitions, relationships, and personal growth. She combines clinical training with a coaching mindset to support clients who are seeking clearer direction, healthier connections, and greater confidence in their daily lives.

Her practice emphasizes growth and change for individual adults and couples, with special attention to women’s issues, relationship and intimacy concerns, and the challenges that come with major life changes. She is trained in mediation and serves as a collaborative law counseling facilitator, and she also works with employers, employees, students, athletes, and professional performance artists to help them access their core strengths and improve performance, skill, and productivity.

Therapy with Betty is flexible and tailored. She draws on a multifaceted set of approaches including solution-focused techniques, client-centered methods, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to address each person’s unique situation. Her aim is to meet clients where they are, guide them in identifying the obstacles they face, and reflect feelings and behaviors to promote insight and practical change.

Betty views counseling as a partnership that requires courage and commitment. She supports and empowers people as they take steps toward a more fulfilling life, recognizing that challenges can affect mental, physical, and spiritual well-being and that change often begins with a single decision to seek help.

Therapeutic approaches paired with flexible online sessions

Betty blends several evidence-informed approaches to support clients in online therapy. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people clarify their values and take committed action despite difficult thoughts or feelings - it is useful for stress, anxiety, and life transitions. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathetic listening and the therapist’s nonjudgmental presence to help clients explore identity, relationships, and self-worth. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) addresses unhelpful thought and behavior patterns with practical strategies to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and impulsive reactions.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Betty works collaboratively with each person to identify which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Therapists tailor exercises and session styles so clients can experiment and discover what helps them make meaningful changes.

Online therapy with Betty is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility and accessibility. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, maintain continuity during transitions, and access therapists from different locations, while still focusing on effective strategies for growth and improved relationships.
