Bethany Shrewsbury, LPC

Bethany Shrewsbury is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas who helps people manage stress and anxiety. She also supports those coping with grief, depression, trauma and abuse, sleep problems, parenting strain, self-esteem concerns, career stress, ADHD, and related issues. Bethany aims to create a calm, respectful space where people can talk through what feels overwhelming and learn tools to cope day to day.

She uses a mix of approaches to match each person’s needs. Conversations focus on practical steps and small changes that make life easier. Bethany draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot and change unhelpful thinking, and on Mindfulness to develop focused attention and calm. She also works with Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing for trauma-related memories.

With five years of clinical experience and her LPC credential, Bethany has worked in community mental health, crisis stabilization, veterans clinics, and psychiatric hospital settings. That background informs her approach to grief, trauma recovery, and crisis-related stress.

Sessions tend to emphasize building a steady relationship, clear goals, and coping strategies that fit daily life. Bethany combines listening with practical exercises, gentle reflection, and steps to help people feel more in control between visits.

People looking to start are invited to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. The aim is collaborative work that helps someone regain balance and move forward at their own pace.

Therapeutic approaches for online stress and trauma work

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on understanding each person’s experience through empathic listening and nonjudgmental support. It helps people feel heard and encouraged to set their own goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to change patterns that feed anxiety and low mood. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a trauma-focused approach that helps process distressing memories so they cause less disruption in daily life.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and comfort. That decision can change over time as progress is made and priorities shift.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It also gives the flexibility to use mindfulness and CBT exercises between sessions and to maintain steady momentum when life gets hectic.
