Betsy Salomon-Auguste , LCPC

Betsy Salomon-Auguste is a licensed clinical professional counselor (LCPC) practicing in Illinois with 22 years of experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, and issues around intimacy and self-esteem. Betsy creates a calm, nonjudgmental space so clients can talk through thoughts and everyday habits that get in the way of feeling better.

She meets people where they are and helps them identify small changes that add up. Betsy listens for the patterns in everyday thinking and behavior that maintain stress or block connection. Then she works with clients to try different ways of responding and new habits that support goals at home, work, and in relationships.

Her background covers many life transitions and relational struggles, including grief, parenting pressures, career crossroads, and compassion fatigue. She also supports people facing trauma, issues related to identity and immigration, and concerns like codependency, jealousy, and forgiveness. Her practical focus includes coping skills and coaching for clearer communication and healthier boundaries.

Betsy speaks English and accepts international clients. Sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time, and cost varies with location and therapist availability. To begin, clients use the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule according to therapist availability.

Therapeutic approaches and what online work can look like

Many people benefit from approaches that look closely at thoughts and habits. Cognitive-based methods help identify unhelpful thinking patterns and replace them with practical alternatives to reduce anxiety and improve mood. Behavioral-focused techniques emphasize changing everyday habits and routines to support better stress management and stronger relationships.

Another useful approach is problem-focused work that breaks big issues into small steps. This helps with relationship struggles, parenting pressures, career decisions, and recovering from setbacks like grief or betrayal. Each method is about trying concrete strategies and tracking what works in daily life rather than relying on abstract ideas.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to goals, try different tools, and adjust plans based on what feels most helpful. Clients and therapist decide together which techniques fit the person’s needs and preferences.

The original biography did not specify session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make fitting sessions into a busy life easier by removing travel, allowing shorter check-ins, or making scheduling across time zones simpler. It can also let people use a quieter time for focused work or choose whether to be on camera, depending on what helps them engage best.
