About Beverly
Beverly Crippen is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with more than 30 years in the field. She has worked in adoption and foster care settings, addiction recovery, outpatient mental health programs, faith-based family service clinics, and private practice. Beverly draws on this broad background to help people facing common life stresses and emotional struggles.
She helps people who are dealing with depression, anxiety, relationship strain, parenting challenges, and questions about work or education. She also supports those with histories of trauma and emotional abuse. Beverly aims to create a respectful space where clients can look honestly at their concerns and find practical steps forward.
Beverly uses a client-centered approach that starts from the belief that people have inner strengths and answers. She offers listening, encouragement, and a steady presence while clients identify what matters to them. The work is guided by each person's goals rather than a fixed protocol.
When helpful, Beverly includes tools from cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness and meditation, stress management, inner child work, and positive psychology. These tools are chosen to match what a client wants to focus on and to build skills for everyday life.
She describes change as a courageous process that can lead to greater satisfaction and purpose. Beverly invites people who are ready to work toward those changes to begin a collaborative process and to set the pace that fits their needs.
How Beverly’s Approaches Translate to Online Work
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and supporting a person's own insight and strengths. In practice this means the therapist reflects what a person says, asks gentle questions, and helps them decide which steps feel right. This approach is useful for people who want a supportive space to talk through life decisions or emotional wounds.Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect and teaches practical tools for changing unhelpful patterns. CBT can help with anxiety, depression, stress, and relationship patterns by adding simple skills to daily routines.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Beverly collaborates with each person to try methods that fit their goals and comfort level. She adjusts pacing and techniques based on what the client finds most useful, so the plan evolves rather than being fixed at the start.
Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Because session formats are not specified in the biography, please confirm current session options before booking. The emphasis is on making therapy fit everyday life, with tools and strategies that translate into practical changes between sessions.
