Bethany Shrewsbury, LPC

Bethany Shrewsbury is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas who helps people manage stress, anxiety, grief, depression, and life transitions. She also supports people facing relationship strain, trauma and abuse, sleep problems, parenting challenges, low self-esteem, career concerns, bipolar disorder, compassion fatigue, and ADHD. Her approach aims to make hard conversations feel manageable and practical.

With five years of clinical experience, Bethany draws on several ways of working to suit each person. She uses client-centered methods to listen and reflect what matters most. She applies cognitive behavioral ideas to help people notice patterns and try new responses. She also brings mindfulness and motivational interviewing into sessions to support small, sustainable changes.

Her background includes work in community mental health settings and in psychiatric services. That experience shaped her skills in crisis stabilization and in helping people navigate intense emotional states. She approaches grief and trauma recovery with attention to safety and pacing.

Bethany aims for a respectful, professional atmosphere where people can explore feelings and build stronger coping skills. She focuses on forming a clear working relationship and setting small goals that fit everyday life. Sessions emphasize practical strategies and emotional awareness.

People who choose her can expect straightforward conversation, tailored tools, and an emphasis on self-discovery and improved daily functioning. To begin, visitors can follow the site’s intake steps to match and schedule based on the therapist’s availability.

How her approaches translate to online work

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the person. In online sessions this means the therapist helps clients name priorities, set goals, and guide the conversation in a supportive way. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) teaches people to notice unhelpful thoughts and try practical experiments to change patterns. Online CBT can include homework, thought records, and short skill practices between meetings. EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is used for trauma recovery and involves guided bilateral stimulation alongside processing difficult memories; when used remotely it is adapted to pacing, grounding, and clear step-by-step guidance.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options together and choose strategies that match the person’s goals, needs, and comfort level. That choice is collaborative and can change as progress is made.

Confirm the specific session formats before booking so you know how meetings will be scheduled. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around busy days, reduce travel time, and allow brief check-ins when needed. It also supports using digital tools for homework, tracking mood, and practicing skills between appointments.
