"You don't have to be broken, to be fixed." Life happens and it can leave us feeling overwhelmed, anxious and frustrated with day to day life. Does anxiety or sadness often get in the way accomplishing the goals you have for yourself? I can help you figure out how to get out of your own way and be the best version of yourself possible! I also specialize in substance abuse issues or helping families of loved ones who may have substance abuse related problems. Getting support takes courage and strength and searching for the right therapist is the perfect first step!

Trying to find a therapist who has both expertise and understands you is hard work! But finding that right fit is not optional, it is essential for you to meet your goals. Many of Beth’s clients have reported feeling more understood by her than any previous therapist. Beth skillfully balances between empathetic listening and gentle motivation to help clients change via skill use. Through working with Beth in individual therapy, many clients attest to managing their symptoms of depression, PTSD, addiction, and anxiety, and feel better equipped to tackle their life circumstances.

"Between stimulus and response, there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response. In our response lies our growth and our freedom." (Viktor Frankl) Many of those I work with are dealing with issues of grief and loss. Others suffer from addictions and desire to embark on a recovery path, or love someone with addictions and need to learn how to take care of themselves. Many are journeying through resolving trauma, anxiety, stress or depression issues. Regardless of your pain, I am invested in your growth, emotional freedom and creating your wellness plan.

I know that you have a "pretty good" life. Perhaps you have done some work in therapy before, and things are finally stable. Yet, you sometimes feel like you are playing a part, rather than embracing and expressing your authentic self. You may feel uncomfortable in your own skin, self-conscious, or like you are not "enough." You may struggle to find your authentic voice and honor your values in your relationships or career. Life circumstances, societal pressures, past trauma, depression, and anxiety can all create obstacles to experiencing inner peace, trust, and confidence.

My passion for helping others to realize their dreams and overcome the obstacles caused by trauma, anxiety, grief, poor self-image, addictions and a myriad of other difficulties has led me to learn how closely associated emotional anguish can be with physical pain. In a warm and loving environment, I guide my clients one step at a time toward reaching their goals. I also utilize a variety of other approaches when indicated including CBT, DBT, and Narrative Therapy. I am uniquely trained in Somatic Experiencing and in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR).

**ACCEPTING CLIENTS IN PERSON OR VIRTUAL** I believe everyone has within them the strength, ability, and desire to fulfill his or her own potential. My job as a therapist is to help you to recognize, find, and unlock your inner strengths through the therapeutic and self-discovery process. If you or a loved one are struggling with feelings of sadness, anxiety, impacted by a recent or prolonged trauma, or are just having difficulty navigating through the daily stresses of life, I can help. I provide a warm, non-judgmental, and safe haven environment for your journey of self-discovery and growth. ***Telehealth Available***

HOPE. Four simple letters. One small word. Why is it so hard to find hope when stress is piling up on us? To me, counseling is a process centered on finding the hope that these stressors can be managed and our lives can change. Following a Motivational Interviewing (MI) approach, my goal is to meet you where you are in your personal journey for change and recovery. Through collaborative exploration and goal-planning, I will work with you to help you develop the skills necessary to build or return to a healthy level of personal functioning.
