Psychotherapy and Coaching for Life

Welcome and congratulations for taking an important step of considering psychotherapy to take good care of yourself or a loved one!  I know it's not easy.

In this fast-paced world and time of information explosion, it sometimes takes a conscious effort to find the quiet, which is where our truth lives. With so many choices of ways to live, the sorting out process can be a difficult one. In therapy with Beth the process is focused, but it is not rushed. There is time for one's own truth to unfold, gently and powerfully, so that the path becomes clear and direction is obvious.

Human Beings are Relational. There is nothing more devastating than isolation. Sometimes, if we are not feeling at ease in our relationships, we are more isolated than being on a mountaintop completely alone. Relationships, like health, wealth, and talents, go to waste when left untended. Beth works with individuals, couples, and groups, and focuses on supporting the development and growth of healthy, fertile relationships.

Beth specializes in helping people manage difficult life transitions, such as career change, marriage or divorce, big moves, new relationships, etc. This also includes coming out of the difficult period of recovery from sexual or physical abuse issues, becoming ready to "join the world of the living", as in beginning new kinds of relationship without the ghosts of past abuse getting in the way. Beth works with compassion and practical knowledge to help a person take these difficult yet courageous -- and life-giving -- steps. You may want to read her article, "After Abuse: The Challenging Work of Forging Healthy Relationships" under "Articles" on this site.

Therapy for the Soul will support you through. . .

• Relationship issues
• Transitions: moves, career change, marriage, divorce
• Parenting and Family Issues
• Post-sexual-abuse recovery in relationship
• Working through depression, anxiety
• Opening to creativity
• Finding your path

Therapeutic Approach

• Gentle, compassionate, yet focused on helping you find your way
• Transpersonal therapy: recognizing the broader context of spirituality in which we live and thrive
• Astrological insights for deeper understanding of life themes
• "Sub-personality work": recognition of the many aspects of self, giving these aspects a voice
• Dreamwork with a Jungian orientation
• Body awareness supports more complete integration of growth

Beth offers readings for individuals and couples. Rather than being focused on predictions, readings give insight into the powerful origins of our longings, direction, our wounds and our unique needs for healing. Astrology is broader and at the same time more specific to each individual than any other character typology used today.

• Sessions are usually ~ 1 ½ hours, taped. Beth includes the natal chart (what we're born with), as well as transits, progressions, and return charts in each reading. Going into depth not evidenced by many other astrologers, this approach brings great self-understanding and explains current, and recurring, issues. Beth also includes the asteroids and Chiron, which expand a person's astrological "signature" considerably. (Order On-line)
• Phone consultations are available for those outside the Denver area. (Order On-line)

Astrology, while used in the East primarily as a tool for divination and foretelling the future, is used in the West as a vehicle for deeper understanding of our psychological nature. It is broader and at the same time more specific to each individual than any other character typology used today. Beth has been using astrology to help people better understand themselves since 1985. She integrates it into her work in the counseling process upon request, for those wishing to benefit from this great wealth of knowledge. You may want to follow the links to some of Beth's writings on astrology. You'll see why she so passionately finds its wisdom!

Astrological Supervision for Other Therapists, Healers, Teachers, Parents, etc.

Astrology is so helpful in understanding our personality that many therapists use Beth for consultation about their own clients. Exploring a person's astrological birth chart (with the permission of the client) offers powerful insights not always obvious from the client's own testimony. Underlying dynamics and patterns, current challenges, and personality tendencies can be revealed from a person's astrological data, giving information at a glance what might take several sessions to unearth. "Very helpful!" says one therapist. "This has saved us months of work!" says another.

As a Licensed Professional Counselor, Beth is credentialed for supervision privileges. Therefore, supervision with Beth will qualify for therapists working toward their own licensing credentials. Helpful for therapists, healers, teachers, or anyone in the helping profession, who wants to understand their clients more fully.
