About Beverly

Beverly Pautz is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Wisconsin with more than 22 years of experience. She uses a warm, empathetic, and interactive style to help people facing stress, anxiety, grief, depression, and parenting challenges. Beverly focuses on practical steps rather than labels and aims to treat everyone with respect and sensitivity.

She draws on cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.

Background and approach

She also uses solution-focused therapy to identify strengths and build short-term steps toward clear goals. Sessions are shaped to match each person’s situation and priorities. Beverly’s background includes work in employee assistance programs, outpatient counseling, and sexual abuse treatment.

That variety informs how she approaches work and coping strategies for workplace issues, caregiver stress, and compassion fatigue. Her experience also supports addressing relationship strain, anger, self-esteem, social anxiety, and other life transitions. In sessions she listens first, then offers tools and straightforward options.

Conversations are collaborative and tailored so clients can try what fits best. She encourages realistic, manageable changes and adjusts the plan based on what helps most. Seeking help can feel hard, and Beverly says taking the first step shows courage.

She aims to support and empower people as they work toward more fulfilling, calmer daily life.

Using focused approaches in online sessions

CBT, or cognitive behavioral therapy, helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors to reduce stress and anxiety. It is practical and skills-focused, often useful for mood, worry, and workplace or caregiver stress.

Solution-focused therapy centers on small, achievable steps and on what is already working. It helps people set clear goals and move toward solutions without spending all session time on problem details.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Beverly will work with each person to pick or combine methods based on their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they review what helps and adjust the plan as progress is made.

Online sessions offer flexible ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, manage childcare or work commitments, and try different formats to see what feels most useful. Licensed professionals can support progress through these remote formats while tailoring techniques to individual priorities.

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.
