About Betty
Betty Hull-Williams, LPC, helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, and relationship or intimacy challenges. She draws on 18 years in counseling to guide practical steps forward. Her approach is straightforward and focused on what someone can do between sessions. She welcomes conversations about identity, grief, self-esteem, and coping with life changes.
Betty uses a mix of approaches to match what each person needs. She commonly uses Motivational Interviewing to build motivation for change and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and habits. Emotion-focused tools and skills from Dialectical Behavior Therapy are part of her work when emotions feel overwhelming.
Her background includes a Master of Science in Community Counseling from Oklahoma State University and two bachelor’s degrees in Psychology and Criminal Justice. She has worked in correctional settings, drug court programs, homeless services, methadone clinics, and as a clinical supervisor and program director. That range informs how she sees immediate practical needs alongside longer-term goals.
In sessions she emphasizes listening without judgement, encouragement, and clear feedback. Clients can expect goal-oriented conversations and tools to practice between visits. She describes therapy as a team effort where clients take the lead on what matters most to them.
Betty is based in Oklahoma and works with adults on issues including trauma and mood instability, substance concerns, identity questions, and relationship struggles. She aims to help people move from feeling stuck to making manageable changes.

How therapeutic approaches guide online care
Betty often draws on Motivational Interviewing, which focuses on building a person's own reasons for change and increasing readiness to try new behaviors. This approach can help with substance concerns, ambivalence about change, and establishing healthier habits. Client-Centered Therapy is another influence, emphasizing empathetic listening and the client's own goals to shape each session. It supports people who want encouragement and a nonjudgmental space to talk. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, used alongside these methods, helps identify thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and teaches concrete tools to shift them.
Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to decide what feels most useful based on goals, strengths, and preferences. That may mean trying different techniques and adjusting as progress happens.
The therapist's biography did not specify which online session formats are offered, so confirm available options before booking. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life by removing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins when needed, and offering greater flexibility for scheduling. These practical benefits help therapy fit into everyday routines while working toward meaningful changes. -
