About Beth
Beth Allen is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 20 years of clinical experience in Pennsylvania. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, addictions, and anger. Her style is warm and direct, aiming to make tough problems feel more manageable in everyday life.
She uses practical therapy methods like cognitive behavioral work and mindfulness to help people change unhelpful patterns. She also draws on acceptance and commitment ideas to support people in living by their values even when feelings are hard.
Background and approach
Sessions are focused on simple tools and steps clients can use between appointments. Beth pays attention to how past relationships and family history shape current struggles. She helps people work through codependency, family of origin issues, abandonment, and feelings of emptiness.
She also supports people dealing with guilt, shame, and searching for life purpose. Trauma and post-traumatic stress are part of her practice, and she offers approaches aimed at easing traumatic memories and their effects. She has experience assisting people who have self-harmed or who face mood disorders, and she addresses compassion fatigue and caregiver stress for those feeling worn down.
Her sessions are collaborative and paced to each person’s needs. She focuses on realistic steps - learning coping skills, testing new behaviors, and building self-compassion. Beth helps people notice progress even when change feels slow.

Approaches that guide online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages people to notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and to take steps that match their values. This approach can help with anxiety, depression, and life changes by focusing on meaningful action rather than only symptom reduction. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts influence feelings and behavior and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns. It is useful for anxiety, mood concerns, and managing anger through clear behavioral experiments and homework.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will draw on these methods and others to tailor sessions to each person’s goals and preferences. Clients and therapist review what helps and adjust techniques over time so the work fits daily life and shifting needs.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which offer flexibility for different routines. Video calls let people use body language and visual cues, phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or a quicker check-in is needed, and messaging or live chat can support brief check-ins, skill practice, or ongoing reflection between meetings. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to keep momentum between sessions.
