About Bethany
Bethany Tschappat is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in South Carolina. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship strain, grief, and life changes. Bethany aims to help clients feel more grounded and able to move forward.
Her sessions are straightforward and practical. She listens first, then helps people set small, doable goals. Bethany draws on approaches like acceptance-based work, cognitive strategies, and mindfulness to help reduce distress and improve day-to-day coping.
Background and approach
Bethany has six years of counseling experience. She often supports clients dealing with caregiver stress, compassion fatigue, first responder issues, and workplace strain. She also addresses topics such as self-esteem, intimacy concerns, sleeping difficulties, and career-related stress.
Her background includes work with people navigating attachment wounds, family of origin issues, abandonment, and forgiveness. She also helps those facing health-related stressors including cancer and fertility concerns, and supports people coping with aging or caregiver responsibilities. Sessions focus on building clearer communication, stronger self-care routines, and practical skills to handle triggers and setbacks.
Bethany emphasizes collaboration so clients leave with concrete tools to try between sessions. The goal is steady progress rather than quick fixes.
Practical approaches and online sessions that fit your life
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choosing actions that align with personal values. It can help when anxiety, low mood, or life transitions make choices feel overwhelming. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at unhelpful thought patterns and teaches specific skills to change behaviors and reactions, which is useful for anxiety, depression, sleep issues, and coping with stress. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a trauma-focused method that helps people process painful memories so those memories stop driving daily reactions; it is often used when past events continue to cause distress.Finding the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, then suggest methods to try while checking in about what helps. That collaborative process makes it easier to adjust methods over time as needs change.
Online sessions offer flexibility for busy schedules. Video calls let people have fuller conversations and visual connection. Phone sessions can be a shorter check-in or a lower-bandwidth option. Live chat and text-based messaging work well for coaching-style support, quick skill practice, or when someone prefers typing. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, caregiving, or other routines while still using evidence-informed approaches.
