Background and approach
She brings 13 years of clinical experience in a variety of settings. That experience includes work with anxiety, panic attacks, trauma, grief, bipolar disorder, and compassion fatigue. In sessions she uses tools from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Solution-Focused Therapy.
She emphasizes small, doable steps and helps people practice new responses between sessions. Her style blends practical coaching with empathy and patience. She pays attention to how the body and mind interact and helps clients build routines that support emotional balance.
Bethany listens closely and prioritizes clear, teachable strategies for daily life. Her goal is to make progress feel realistic and sustainable. Parents looking for help with stress, parenting challenges, or behavioral concerns may find her direct, skills-based work useful.
Bethany aims to partner with each person to set manageable goals and try concrete tools that fit their family life.
Approaches that translate well to online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. It focuses on identifying values and taking small actions that matter, which can help with anxiety, stress, and coping with life changes.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. It teaches practical skills like spotting unhelpful thoughts and trying new behaviors, useful for panic attacks, depression, and anxiety.
Solution-Focused Therapy centers on goals and strengths. Sessions are forward-looking and identify concrete steps clients can try between meetings to see quick, practical results.
Finding the right mix of approaches is collaborative. The therapist will talk with each person about their needs and preferences, then try methods that fit those goals. Adjustments happen over time based on what helps most.
Online formats here include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to schedule around work, school, or childcare and let people use therapy from home. The variety also lets clients choose shorter check-ins or longer talks depending on what they need.
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)
Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
Solution-Focused Therapy
Rather than examining the problem at length, this looks at what is already working and builds on it. Sessions tend to be practical and forward-looking, with small achievable steps, which translates readily to shorter online conversations.
