Beth Brown
Hello there! My name is Beth, and I am a licensed independent social worker who has been practicing as a therapist for over three years. Are you feeling weighed down with depression or trapped in anxiety? Are you ready to start unpacking some trauma and learning about how your thoughts shape your actions?
Life is chaotic - let's figure out how to find the calm in the storm
I would love to help you to find some skills to navigate those things. My approach is trauma-informed and brings some nerdy references and levity to the conversation.
First session
First sessions can certainly be nerve-wracking! During the first session, we will spend time getting to know each other. You can share as much or as little as you want about yourself. We will talk about what brings you to therapy and start to explore what you want your life to look like as a result of doing therapy. We will work together to build a safe space for you to process, heal, and grow at a pace that is manageable for you and that meets your goals. I hope that by the end of the session, you will feel seen and heard, as well as having some hope about what things will be like moving forward.
Strengths
One of my strengths as a therapist is respecting that you are the expert in your life. I view therapy as something collaborative and I try to bring curiosity, non-judgement, and humor to sessions. Sessions flow based on what you need and what you want to work on. Please come as you are, we can figure things out together!
Ideal clients
Are you ready to look at life from a new perspective? Open to learning some new skills? I am so honored that you are considering meeting with me. One of the best parts of being a therapist is getting to meet a variety of people who are facing their own unique circumstances. Each person is so different, and I love that we get to work together, be creative, and apply evidence-based methods to figure out what will be the most helpful for you.
Treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I have used CBT skills in sessions with clients to help to identify thought patterns and behaviors that are problematic or distressing, to confront those things, and to learn new patterns to support a healthier lifestyle. CBT is very accessible and evidence shows it is also very effective for a lot of people.
Dialectical Behavior (DBT)
I have really enjoyed utilizing DBT methods in therapy. This includes nonjudgement, meditation, and can help to address a variety of mental health concerns. We really focus on building your skills base so you can feel more confident, grounded, and mindful in your daily life, no matter what challenges you face.
Faith-based therapy
I have several years experience working with people who are unpacking religious trauma. Deconstruction is a complex thing to go through, and there are so many dynamics that make changes in a person's faith difficult to navigate. Engaging in therapy helped me at various stages of my own deconstruction, and I really love having the opportunity to walk alongside others who are having that experience. There is no agenda in this work, wherever you land with your faith journey is welcome and will be honored.
