About Bethany
Bethany Frazee is a Licensed Professional Counselor who focuses on helping people navigate stress, anxiety, grief, and life changes. She speaks plainly and listens carefully to understand what matters most to each person. Her goal is to help clients set realistic steps and build skills that fit daily life.
She draws on evidence-based methods to guide sessions. That means practical tools for managing thoughts, emotions, and behavior rather than long lectures.
Background and approach
Sessions are collaborative - the client and Bethany decide together what to try and when to adjust the plan. Bethany trained at Duquesne University and holds a Licensed Professional Counselor credential in Pennsylvania.
She has three years of clinical experience and has worked with a broad range of concerns, including depression, trauma and abuse, addiction, ADHD, sleep and eating difficulties, and caregiving stress. Her approach often includes short skills practice, goal-setting, and checking what’s working between sessions. She also supports people dealing with identity and intimacy-related issues, body image, and career stress.
Counseling can include coaching-style conversations when someone needs structure and action steps. Sessions are offered in English and Bethany accepts international clients. She offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules and communication preferences.
Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a session based on availability.
How evidence-based approaches translate to online care
Bethany often uses cognitive behavioral techniques that help people notice unhelpful thoughts and test more balanced ways of thinking. These methods are useful for anxiety, depression, sleep issues, and many stress-related problems.She also draws on skills-oriented approaches that focus on concrete strategies and short-term goals. That work is helpful for building coping skills, managing emotions, addressing impulsive behavior, and following through on changes between sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Bethany will discuss different methods, try them out, and adjust based on what the client prefers and what helps reach their goals. That collaborative process makes it easier to stay engaged and make steady progress.
Online therapy formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for more in-depth conversations and skills practice. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging allow short check-ins and ongoing support between sessions. These options give flexibility to fit therapy into a busy life and to pick the communication style that works best.
