About Cicely
Cicely Betts is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Texas with eight years of clinical experience. She focuses on relationship struggles, trauma and abuse, anxiety, depression, stress, and a range of life changes that affect daily functioning. Cicely speaks English and works with people who are navigating grief, parenting challenges, addiction, ADHD, and identity or intimacy concerns.
She uses straightforward, practical work in sessions. Conversations address communication patterns, self-worth, coping skills, and concrete steps for managing mood or stress. Sessions can include goal setting, skills practice, and reflection on past experiences that continue to shape current behavior.
Her background includes a Master of Social Work from the University of Houston Graduate College of Social Work and an undergraduate degree in Business Management from Dillard University. Cicely draws on multiple clinical approaches when planning sessions with clients.
Therapeutic work often blends acceptance and commitment ideas to clarify values, cognitive behavioral strategies to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, and client-centered techniques that focus on the person's priorities. Psychodynamic ideas may be used to look at repeating patterns that show up in relationships.
Outside of clinical work she balances family time and creative projects such as drawing and writing. That practical balance shapes how she helps people build routines, set boundaries, and organize life so therapy fits busier schedules.
BHow sessions work
How Cicely applies therapeutic approaches online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most to them and take small, values-guided steps. It can be useful for stress, life changes, anxiety, and feeling stuck. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing different behaviors to change mood and daily functioning. It often helps with anxiety, depression, and problem-focused goals. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person's goals and perspectives, using reflective listening and collaborative planning to support clearer decision making and better communication.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Cicely collaborates with clients to decide which methods fit their needs and preferences. She combines approaches when useful and checks in regularly to adjust goals, skills practice, and session focus together.
