Beth is a Limited Licensed Professional Counselor and National Certified Counselor who works with adults.  She earned a master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling after returning to school following years spent raising and homeschooling her children. Beth has experience supporting clients facing anxiety, depression, grief, relationship concerns, life transitions, and a variety of other challenges. She believes that a strong therapeutic relationship centered on genuine rapport is the foundation for her client’s healing. Beth creates a warm, nonjudgmental environment where clients feel heard and comfortable discussing even the most difficult parts of their lives.

Beth’s therapeutic approach is primarily person-centered, recognizing that each individual is an expert on their own life. She also integrates mindfulness practices, cognitive behavioral therapy, and psychodynamic principles when they best support her clients’ needs. Her aim is to provide a collaborative, empathetic space where clients can gain insight, develop resilience, and move toward lasting growth.
