About Betsy

Betsy Salomon-Auguste is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) in Illinois with 22 years of professional experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, intimacy issues, depression, grief, and many life changes. Betsy also addresses codependency, communication problems, caregiving strain, and questions about life purpose and career direction.

She prefers straightforward conversations. Sessions focus on naming patterns and practical steps clients can try between meetings. Betsy helps people who keep putting others first notice how that pattern shows up and consider alternatives that protect their needs as well as their relationships.

Her background includes long clinical experience in community and outpatient settings. That history shaped an approach that blends evidence-based therapeutic techniques with clear, real-world problem solving. She draws on methods that help with anxiety, relationship distress, and repeated behavior patterns.

In sessions she explores current stressors, past experiences that influence present choices, and concrete skills for setting limits, managing emotions, and improving communication. Work may include short-term coaching-style interventions and longer work on deeper issues like trauma, grief, or abandonment concerns.

Sessions are conducted in English and she accepts international clients. Costs vary by location and use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. To begin a match, prospective clients select the See online therapy options button, complete a brief questionnaire, and schedule a first session.

How sessions work

How Betsy uses evidence-based methods in online sessions

She draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on symptoms and patterns. One common approach addresses anxious thinking and teaches concrete skills for managing worry and stress, such as tracking thoughts, testing assumptions, and practicing brief behavioral experiments. This type of work can help when anxiety interferes with daily routines or decision making.

A second approach centers on relationship patterns and communication. Sessions examine how people respond to conflict, caretaking, and closeness, and teach skills for clearer requests, boundary-setting, and repairing interactions. That work can be useful for people who notice repeated cycles in relationships or struggle to say no.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work together with the client to choose techniques that fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That may mean trying short-term coaching-style strategies first and shifting to deeper work on trauma or grief if needed.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, save travel time, allow quick check-ins when schedules are tight, and let people participate from wherever they are located. Licensed professionals can adapt pacing and tools to remote sessions so work continues between meetings.
