Something very real and important has brought you here for help. My approach is compassion-focused & tailored to meet the unique needs of each human I work with. I believe that you are the greatest expert in your own life; my role is to help you connect to that authentic and intuitive voice to bring about change. Beliefs such as “I am not good enough,” “I am worthless,” or “I am a failure” can lead to avoidance, suffering & missed experiences - holding us back from truly enjoying life. Yet, every human has intrinsic worth despite what we may tell ourselves about the many experiences we have had in this world.

Being happy is essential in life. We are happy when we believe in ourselves, when we exude confidence, when we have a sense of belonging and when we have a sense of purpose. Depression, anxiety, disconnection and low self esteem interrupt the ability to overcome obstacles to happiness. You are not alone, many people suffer in silence. When a person is supported with compassion and empathy being able to talk in a safe place, such as psychotherapy, the person can then begin to feel heard. They can learn how-to manage symptoms of depression and anxiety to etch out a life with acceptance, joy and love. Accepting new patients.

As a social worker, my goal is to help others reach their goals and overcome their struggles. Coming from a background of community mental health, I believe that everyone deserves to have their voice heard, believed, and understood. I work with people of all backgrounds and needs. Compassionate care is important to me, and I strive to be a safe person with whom others can connect. I am not the expert in my clients' lives', and therefore aim to collaboratively face and work through clients' struggles with them.

Let's face it — it's a big confusing world out there. And sometimes, we all need a little help to get through it. Hi, I'm Betheny. I have been working with kids and families for nearly a decade to do just that. Therapy can help people process trauma, cope with stressors, and allow them to live their best lives — and I feel honored and humbled to be part of that process.

Throughout our life’s journey, we may encounter various stresses that challenge us—experiences of grief, depression, and anxiety may frequent as we navigate this terrain on our path to mental health and well-being. Engaging in the process of counseling can be intimidating as you move through feelings of sadness, despair, loneliness, and periods of expansion and contraction. As an Existential- Integrative Therapist, it would be my honor to walk with you as you transcend these challenges and reclaim your autonomy, experiencing wholeness, enhanced connectedness to self and others, and rediscover meaning and purpose in life.
