About Beth
Beth Donath-Tish is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 23 years of experience based in New York. She uses a client-centered, supportive style and aims to meet people where they feel most comfortable. Beth focuses on practical steps people can take to feel better and cope with day-to-day stressors.
She combines approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, mindfulness practices, and psychodynamic ideas to help people understand patterns that keep problems going. Sessions often include identifying unhelpful thoughts, practicing grounding and breathing techniques, and looking back at life events that shape current struggles. This blend supports work on anxiety, depression, self-esteem, and stress-related concerns.
Beth has worked in outpatient psychiatry, private practice, a group home for teenagers, and school-based support for the New York City Department of Education. In schools she helped with assessments related to special education, at-risk counseling, mandated counseling, and 504 meetings connected to suspensions. That background informs how she supports people navigating education-related and developmental stress.
She also addresses issues such as grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, eating and body image struggles, ADHD, and workplace stress. Adoption and foster care are listed among additional focus areas she pays attention to when relevant to a client's story.
Beth prefers an initial phone call or live meeting to start the work and values a collaborative plan between clinician and client. She aims to treat people with respect and to build steps that fit each person's life and goals.
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Mindfulness Therapy focuses on present-moment awareness and simple exercises like breathing and grounding. It can help reduce stress, manage strong emotions, and support work on body image and self-care. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and panic-related problems.Finding the right approach is a team effort. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has helped or not helped before. Together they will try methods that fit the person's situation and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, shorten travel time, and allow for check-ins that match work or family schedules. Some people find phone or video sessions useful when they need a quieter setup or a shorter check-in. Licensed professionals adapt pacing and techniques so therapy can be practical and usable in everyday life.
