Bethsaida is a sensational therapist. She has provided an open space to explore long standing trauma and current day stressors. She has a diverse range of specialties. We unexpectedly connected in experience dealing with AA. She is a compassionate and validating professional. Her skill set is matched only by her passion for helping others live a peaceful life. I have worked through grief and loss, anxiety, and sexual trauma with her.

More about Bethsaida

  • 17 years' experience
  • Female
  • LPC

I am licensed in Pennsylvania with 17 years of professional experience in the mental health field. Throughout my career, I have worked with a diverse range of individuals, helping clients manage stress and anxiety, overcome addictions, process trauma and abuse, and develop anger management strategies. My approach is tailored to meet the unique needs and goals of each person, using proven techniques to foster emotional growth and well-being.

I firmly believe in creating a safe, open, and non-judgmental space where clients feel comfortable exploring their thoughts, emotions, and experiences. Therapy is not only a place to heal but also an opportunity to discover tools that empower individuals in their journey toward self-discovery and personal growth.

I understand that taking the first step toward a more fulfilling and satisfying life can be difficult and requires courage. My commitment is to walk alongside you on this journey, offering the support and tools you need to achieve your goals, overcome challenges, and live a more balanced, meaningful life. No matter where you are in your process, I am here to help you find the path to the well-being you desire and deserve.

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
