Kathleen McBeth, LPC

With more than twenty years of clinical experience, I bring a warm, compassionate, and client-centered approach to every person I work with. Reaching out for help can feel overwhelming, especially when emotional stress begins affecting daily routines and relationships. Because of that, I focus on creating a safe and supportive environment where you feel understood, respected, and ready to do meaningful work.

I tailor treatment to each individual and work with children, adolescents, and adults facing a wide range of emotional and life challenges. My work focuses on helping clients navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, addiction, parenting challenges, school-related stress, and relationship difficulties. Throughout our work together, I help each client build resilience, experience healing, and develop practical tools for everyday life.

I also bring extensive experience supporting adopted children who face attachment-related and trauma-related challenges. Many adoptive families navigate complex emotional experiences, and therapy can provide meaningful guidance during these transitions. Through treatment, children learn to build secure connections, improve emotional regulation, and develop healthier relationships with the people around them.

I am a Level II EMDR-trained therapist and use Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) to help clients process traumatic experiences. In addition, I use Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) and Theraplay when working with children and families. These evidence-based approaches support recovery from trauma while strengthening attachment relationships and emotional stability.

Providing high-quality, evidence-based mental health care remains central to my work. As a result, I stay current with research and best practices in the field so that every client receives care grounded in what actually works.
