About Bettina
Bettina Kell-Rodriguez is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) in Texas with 25 years of experience. She speaks English and Spanish and focuses on helping people facing stress, anxiety, mood changes, grief, and major life transitions. Bettina aims to be approachable and straightforward so people can talk about what matters most to them.
Bettina draws on several practical approaches in sessions. She uses Jungian ideas to help people notice patterns in their life story and feelings.
How Bettina works
She brings mindfulness practices to teach simple ways to reduce reactivity and stay present. She also uses solution-focused techniques to identify small, concrete steps that move people toward their goals. Her background includes work in school settings and independent practice, which shaped a direct, flexible style.
Sessions typically start with what the person wants to change and what has helped before. From there she and the person build a plan with short-term steps and longer-term supports. Bettina works with a wide range of concerns including ADHD, depression, bipolar symptoms, trauma and abuse, anger, parenting stress, career issues, and coping after loss or separation.
She also addresses communication problems, workplace pressures, and challenges that come with aging. People who choose her can expect a practical, client-centered approach. She tailors techniques to each situation and adjusts pace as needed.
Her goal is to help people feel more capable, calmer, and clearer about next steps.

Online support options
Approaches that translate well to online therapy
Jungian Therapy looks at recurring themes and personal symbols to help people understand patterns in their feelings and behavior; this can clarify why certain struggles keep coming up and suggest new directions. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and ease anxiety in day-to-day life. Solution-Focused Therapy focuses on small, practical steps and quick changes that move someone toward their goals rather than dwelling on problems.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Bettina works collaboratively to identify which methods fit a person's needs, goals, and preferences. She adjusts techniques as progress is made so therapy stays useful and relevant.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful when visual cues help the conversation, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or the session needs to fit a short break. Live chat and text messaging work well for brief check-ins, tracking progress, or following up between sessions. These options make it easier to schedule regular work and keep momentum toward meaningful change.
