Beverly Bennett, LPC

Beverly Bennett is a licensed counselor and supervisor with 28 years of clinical experience who helps adults and couples address stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship challenges, trauma, depression, grief, parenting concerns, anger, self-esteem, career transitions, bipolar disorder, and other life changes. She holds a Master of Arts in Christian Counseling - earned magna cum laude from Oral Roberts University - and holds professional credentials as a Licensed Professional Counselor and Supervisor. She is also board certified as a National Certified Counselor, a designation that reflects national standards for counseling practice. In addition, Beverly is a Certified PREPARE/ENRICH Facilitator, trained to use a well-established relationship inventory and skill-building program for couples, and a Certified Batterer's Intervention Program Facilitator for work related to partner abuse.

Beverly brings extensive leadership and direct clinical experience from community mental health centers, psychiatric hospitals, residential programs, juvenile and adult criminal justice settings, therapeutic foster care, and intensive outpatient substance use programs. She emphasizes practical strategies and long-term support to help clients build healthier, more meaningful lives. She connects easily with people and tailors care to individual and family needs, including attachment and blended family issues, communication problems, divorce and separation, domestic violence, and forgiveness work.

She typically checks messages within 24 hours, with limited availability on weekends. If an earlier response is needed, messages can be marked as urgent and she will respond as quickly as possible. Outside of work she enjoys time with family and friends, laughing, singing, reading, traveling, cooking, baking, dancing, and playing board games.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Beverly frequently integrates attachment-based therapy to help clients understand how early relationships shape current patterns of connection and trust. This approach is useful for couples, parents, and anyone working through attachment issues, loneliness, or repeated relationship struggles.

She also uses client-centered therapy, which focuses on listening with empathy and helping clients find their own solutions. This approach supports personal growth, self-esteem work, and navigating life transitions by creating a collaborative, nonjudgmental space.

Additionally, Beverly applies cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and replace them with practical coping skills. CBT is often helpful for anxiety, depression, mood disorders, and managing stress.

Choosing the right approach is part of the process. Beverly works collaboratively with each person to explore which methods match their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adapts strategies over time as progress is made.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging can fit around work, family, and other responsibilities. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care and access licensed professionals from different locations while keeping therapy approachable and consistent.
