Background and approach

Sessions are practical and aimed at helping people manage day-to-day struggles and hard emotions. Her background includes work in residential substance use treatment, nonprofit community outreach, correctional facilities, independent practice, and community behavioral health. Those roles shaped her ability to work with anxiety, mood concerns, trauma, and substance-related issues across many situations.

Bethany emphasizes collaboration and real strategies rather than jargon. Clinically she often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice patterns and change unhelpful thinking and behavior. She also incorporates EMDR for trauma-related work and draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing when useful.

Treatment plans are tailored and adjusted based on client feedback. Bethany encourages honest communication about progress. She helps people build coping skills, set achievable goals, and find meaning after loss or major change.

Bethany aims to stand alongside clients as they work toward steadier days and clearer priorities.

Approaches you can use online and how they help

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying what matters to you and taking actions that reflect those values. It helps when people feel stuck or overwhelmed by difficult thoughts and want a way to move forward. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and practice specific, everyday skills to change them. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress that interfere with daily life. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is used for processing traumatic memories and reducing their emotional impact; it can be helpful when past events continue to cause distress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and try methods that fit those needs. That collaborative process allows adjustments over time so the plan stays practical and relevant.

Online therapy offers several practical options: video calls for in-depth sessions, phone sessions when a camera is not needed, live chat for shorter check-ins, and text-based messaging for ongoing support between sessions. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, handle brief updates quickly, or avoid needing a high-bandwidth connection for every contact. Licensed professionals can use these methods to deliver focused, goal-oriented care that matches how a person wants to work.
