About Bethany
Bethany Kulp is a licensed clinical social worker with 20 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and parenting challenges. She works with adults facing trauma, addictions, sleep struggles, career questions, and relationship patterns that cause pain. Bethany focuses on practical change and on teaching skills that people can use right away.
She keeps sessions collaborative and goal-focused. Bethany listens closely, offers guidance, and helps clients practice new ways of thinking and coping.
Background and approach
Expect a mix of talking, skill-building, and body-aware techniques when they fit your needs. Her background includes long experience in behavioral health and a variety of therapeutic methods. She draws on cognitive-behavioral ideas to identify unhelpful thinking and on mindfulness to strengthen present-moment awareness.
Bethany also incorporates body-centered methods she has used in practice since 2015 to help people notice and regulate physical responses to stress. Sessions aim to increase coping skills and reduce patterns that fuel shame, isolation, or compulsive behavior. She helps people working through parenting strain, caregiver stress, life transitions, and the aftermath of trauma.
The approach combines direct skill teaching with supportive listening and problem solving. Clients can expect clear goals, practical tools, and an emphasis on small, sustainable changes. Bethany works from Texas and offers care that centers the person's values and day-to-day life.

How her approach adapts to online therapy
Bethany commonly uses cognitive-behavioral techniques to help people identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT sessions often include goal setting, homework exercises, and practical strategies for managing anxiety, depression, or obsessive patterns.She also draws on mindfulness therapy to build awareness of thoughts, emotions, and bodily sensations. Mindfulness practices taught in sessions can reduce reactivity and improve stress management in everyday life.
Finding the right mix of methods is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences, try approaches that fit your needs, and adjust plans based on what helps most. Clients are invited to give feedback about what feels useful and what does not.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face work and guided practices, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat is useful for quick check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing coaching or brief reflections between sessions. These options give flexibility to fit therapy into a busy parenting life or working schedule.
