About Betty
Betty Green Gibbs is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Missouri with 13 years of counseling experience. She works with adults who are dealing with anger, stress, anxiety, depression, and major life changes. She also helps people facing relationship strain, parenting stress, grief, trauma and abuse, ADHD, bipolar concerns, and self-esteem issues.
Her sessions focus on practical skills and clear goals. She describes the aim as helping people restore or improve their life and build independence. Clients can expect tools to manage upsetting thoughts and strong emotions rather than vague promises.
Betty uses a flexible approach that responds to what each person needs. For example, she notes Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for distorted thinking, tapping techniques for anxiety, and meditation-focused methods for trauma. She frames methods as options to try and adjusts them as progress is made.
Her background includes a Master of Arts in Professional and School Counseling from Lindenwold University in St. Charles, Missouri. She is also certified as a Psychological Examiner. Those qualifications inform a clinical perspective grounded in assessment and skill-based work.
Sessions are practical and skills-oriented. Conversations typically include identifying unhelpful thinking, practicing new responses to stress and anger, and rehearsing healthier behavior for relationships and parenting. The aim is steady improvement through concrete steps and regular practice.
How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions
Betty describes several evidence-based techniques she uses and how they translate to remote work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on recognizing and changing distorted thoughts and the behaviors that follow; it is useful for anger, anxiety, depression, and stress. Tapping is a brief anxiety-management technique that combines gentle tapping with focused breathing and prompts to reduce acute anxious arousal. Meditation-based approaches offer techniques to reduce trauma-related symptoms and to help slow down strong emotional reactions.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. She will talk with each person about goals, try methods that fit their preferences, and adjust plans if something is not helping. The emphasis is on finding practical tools that the person can use between sessions as well as during them.

Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also lets someone practice techniques in their normal routines and bring real-life situations into session discussion.
