About Betty
Betty Hull-Williams is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) with 18 years of experience based in Oklahoma. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, relationship and intimacy concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, and struggles around identity and self-esteem.
She keeps sessions direct and practical. She listens, asks focused questions, and offers tools drawn from several approaches. People who come for help can expect conversations that identify patterns, name emotions, and try new ways of relating or coping.
Betty uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy alongside Client-Centered methods, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, DBT skills, and EMDR when appropriate. That mix allows her to address strong emotions, unhelpful thoughts, and trauma memories in different ways. She also uses motivational techniques and mindfulness practices to support change.
Her background includes a Master of Science in Community Counseling from Oklahoma State University and two bachelor degrees in Psychology and Criminal Justice. Her career has included correctional settings, drug court programs, methadone clinics, and homeless services, as well as supervisory and program director roles.
In private practice she works with adults on mood instability, substance dependency, identity questions including gender dysphoria and LGBT concerns, relationship and marital problems, codependency, and issues such as abandonment, infidelity, jealousy, and control problems. Sessions focus on making small, concrete changes that fit daily life.
How her approaches translate to online work
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people name and track emotions and relationship patterns. In online sessions this can surface how emotions are triggered and how partners or individuals respond to one another. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting; online meetings allow for steady, person-led conversation where the therapist follows the client's concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors and introduces practical exercises and homework to change unhelpful patterns.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Betty will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, then combine methods that match those needs. That collaborative process helps shape whether sessions emphasize emotions, skills training, or trauma processing.
The biography does not specify session formats, so confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Licensed professionals often use remote meetings to maintain continuity of care and to schedule appointments around work or family commitments.
