It is my joy to help clients overcome obstacles that impede their path to the achievement of their overall well being. I have worked with diverse populations spanning the age range from 6 to 92. I enjoy working with clients to address their developmental and adult traumas, and the wide range of associated co-morbid symptoms and diagnoses. Problems with interpersonal relationships are often the foundation of mental health issues. I work with individuals, couples and families and I take the time to understand the problems with which they present, and the goals to which they aspire.

I do not believe in a "one size fits all" approach and I consider myself to be a therapist who likes working with children, adolescents, and adults who are wary of therapy. I appreciate how difficult it is to seek help, and that not every problem can be solved in the same way. I value the unique qualities of each individual or family's issues and assist with finding solutions that they find achievable and worthwhile.

My name is Bethany and I have been working most closely with college students (both undergrad and graduate) for the past 7 years. I know it can be challenging time with many changes while you are trying to adjust to being on your own, or even trying to break out on your own. I am happy to work with you if you are in school, but I am happy to work with anyone beyond the traditional college age or even those not in school.

Struggle is an inevitable part of the human experience; sometimes worse than others. You're likely to experience a whole range of emotions and thoughts if you're going through it. If you're here reading this, you might be looking for help with that. So let me tell you, it's okay to feel like you need to talk to someone. It can be a challenge to open up, but taking a step of faith and sharing your story could be a game changer. Keeping everything in and trying to make sense of it alone is a bit overwhelming right?
