About Bethany
Bethany Frazee is a licensed professional counselor who offers straightforward, practical support for people feeling overwhelmed. She welcomes conversations about stress, anxiety, depression, grief, ADHD, and relationship or intimacy concerns. Her style is calm and down-to-earth and she aims to make sessions feel relaxed and nonjudgmental.
Bethany earned her degree from Duquesne University and holds the LPC credential. She has three years of clinical experience working with adults on a wide range of life challenges, including career changes, compassion fatigue, addictions, and coping with major life transitions.
Background and approach
In sessions she focuses on clear goals and usable tools. Bethany draws on evidence-based approaches to help people change unhelpful patterns, manage intense emotions, and build practical routines that fit daily life. Conversations are collaborative, with an emphasis on skills people can try between appointments.
She also has experience addressing concerns such as attachment issues, body image, chronic illness and caregiving stress, autism and Asperger Syndrome related challenges, and issues tied to adoption or foster care. Bethany can support work on self-esteem, anger, sleep, eating, and substance-related problems. People who choose Bethany can expect a mix of short-term problem solving and longer-term coping skills work.
She aims to meet each person where they are and help them identify concrete next steps toward feeling steadier and more able to manage daily demands.
How evidence-based approaches work online
Many of Bethany's methods focus on changing patterns people can see and practice. Cognitive Behavioral techniques look at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect and teach simple skills for shifting unhelpful thinking. These tools are useful for anxiety, depression, ADHD-related routines, and daily stress management.Solution-focused work centers on small, achievable steps toward a clearer goal. This approach helps when someone wants quick, practical changes like improving sleep, handling work stress, or managing time and organization. Both approaches translate well to remote sessions because they emphasize concrete strategies and homework that people can try between meetings.
Finding the right way to work together is part of therapy. Bethany will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and what feels comfortable, then suggest approaches to try. That decision is collaborative and may be adjusted as progress is made.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for longer talks and visual cues. Phone sessions can be a good fit when bandwidth is limited or a simpler check-in is needed. Chat and messaging allow brief updates, quick skills coaching, or ongoing support between longer appointments. These options make scheduling easier and help fit therapy into busy lives.
