About Bethany

Bethany Frazee is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania with three years of clinical experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship strain, parenting pressures, addiction concerns, trauma, and other life changes. Sessions focus on clear goals and practical steps to make everyday life feel more manageable.

Bethany uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people change thoughts, behaviors, and routines that get in the way of feeling better. She draws on approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy to teach skills for managing strong emotions and improving coping. She also uses solution-focused strategies to set small, achievable goals and measure progress.

Her background includes a Master of Science in Education from Duquesne University and professional experience across a range of presenting concerns. Bethany has worked with adults facing issues like parenting stress, caregiving burden, and identity-related concerns among LGBT clients, as well as people navigating eating or sleep problems, ADHD, and chronic illness challenges.

In sessions she aims for straightforward, practical conversations. Clients can expect to talk through current struggles, try new coping techniques, and review what works week to week. The focus is on skills you can use between meetings to reduce distress and improve daily functioning.

People seeking help are encouraged to consider whether this approach fits their needs and goals. If it feels like a reasonable match, the next step is to confirm session options and schedule an initial appointment.

How sessions work

How therapy approaches translate to online work

Two evidence-based approaches she draws on are Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and changing patterns of thinking and behavior; it helps with anxiety, depression, and stress by teaching practical skills that can be practiced between sessions. Dialectical Behavioral Therapy teaches emotion regulation and distress-tolerance skills that are useful when emotions feel overwhelming or when relationships create repeated conflict.

She also uses solution-focused techniques that concentrate on short-term goals and small changes. These methods let the therapist and client set clear targets and track progress together. Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work; the therapist will discuss goals and preferences and adjust methods as needed so the plan fits the client's situation.

The biography does not specify exact online formats, so confirm session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into busy schedules, allow for shorter check-ins when time is limited, and avoid travel time. Licensed professionals can use remote sessions to teach practical skills, review homework, and maintain steady support between in-person appointments when that fits the person's life.
