About me

Hello!
Welcome! I have been a counselor, social worker, life coach , and energy healing practitioner for more that 20 years. I am currently licensed in the states of Alaska and Utah.

I work from a positive psychology perspective because I have found that building upon strengths is just as important as solving problems. I incorporate mindfulness and qigong to help people manage stress and become happier and healthier.

I enjoy working with both U.S. and international clients. I honor differences in culture, gender, religion, race, lifestyles and beliefs. I welcome clients who want to recover from pain they experienced because of their race, gender, beliefs, or neuro-divergent way of thinking.

I am presently living in the desert southwest. I enjoy traveling, writing, and creating things with pen and paper, yarn, beads, and clay. I have personal practice of mindfulness meditation and qigong. I am a deeply spiritual person.

I look forward to meeting you and helping you become happier and healthier!
Beverly

Reviews

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Beverly Rivard. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.

She is compassionate, patient, understanding, and gives an empathetic, unbiased, and objective opinion, observation, and/or responses. It's early still, but so far I am getting so much from our therapy sessions, I've already gained new insights to my situation, and I can't wait to see how we'll progress.
