Betty Jo Bolin, LICSW, a clinical social worker and therapist at Solutions for Living, invites couples, adolescents, and adults to identify their strengths and acknowledge their challenges. She helps her clients develop effective strategies for solving a wide range of problems. With a focus on enhancing relationships, Betty provides tools that can be utilized immediately to improve communication and rekindle connections in partnerships. For overwhelmed parents striving to reach out to their teenagers, she employs in-the-moment techniques to facilitate engagement. Her professional experience includes aiding clients in coping with anxiety, managing chronic illness, grieving losses, and achieving a balanced, enriched life. Betty's therapeutic approach is client-centered, reality-based, and solution-focused, yet she also offers psychodynamic insight-oriented therapy for clients seeking deeper exploration of their issues. Her extensive training encompasses relationship issues, life transition crises, developmental stages, adolescent concerns, PTSD, chronic illness, and loss. In collaboration with a small group practice at Solutions for Living, she works within a relationship-based model that emphasizes strengths, self-care planning, mindfulness, and stress reduction, while remaining informed about evidence-based techniques and proven theories in therapeutic practice.
