About Bethany

Bethany Eakle is an LCSW who helps people navigate stress, anxiety, grief, relationship strains, trauma, mood concerns such as depression and bipolar, and attention-related difficulties like ADHD. With 17 years of clinical experience, she aims to meet clients where they are and build practical skills alongside emotional support.

Background and approach

Her work emphasizes collaboration and a strengths-based perspective so that individuals can identify realistic goals and steps to reach them. Her approach blends client-centered and solution-focused methods with mindfulness and evidence-based techniques from cognitive behavioral and dialectical behavior therapies.

Bethany frames treatment around the person rather than a label, offering education, tools, and clear plans to reduce distress and improve day-to-day functioning. She also provides listening and ongoing emotional support for people coping with life transitions, caregiving stress, family dynamics, end-of-life issues, and other complex concerns.

Licensed in Texas as an LCSW, Bethany draws on nearly two decades of practice to tailor interventions to each client’s needs. She supports clients in exploring patterns, building coping strategies, and discovering strengths they may not have noticed before.

Approaches that guide online care and practical skills



Bethany commonly uses client-centered therapy, which focuses on understanding each person’s experience and creating a respectful, nonjudgmental space to explore feelings and goals. This approach helps people clarify what matters most to them and supports growth through collaborative planning.

She also draws on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), which helps identify unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and replaces them with more adaptive strategies to reduce symptoms like anxiety and depression. Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) skills are woven in when emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness are priorities, offering concrete tools for managing intense feelings and improving relationships.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss symptoms, life context, and preferences to tailor a mix of strategies that match a client’s needs and goals rather than applying a single method by default.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, making it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules or when travel is difficult. These formats allow licensed professionals to deliver structured interventions, coach skill practice between sessions, and provide continuity of care while accommodating different communication styles and life circumstances.
