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

10 out of 10! Working with Beverly has been a genuinely positive experience. I’ve always felt heard, understood, and comfortable being completely open without feeling judged. She’s great at helping me look at situations from a different perspective while still allowing me to come to my own conclusions rather than just telling me what I should think or do. I’ve noticed a real difference in how I understand myself, handle difficult situations, and work through things that used to overwhelm me. I’m very grateful for the support and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a therapist who is compassionate, thoughtful, and actually invested in helping their clients grow.

Beverly is amazing. I’ve only had two sessions with her but have left booth sessions feeling more grounded and at peace. She’s helping me build healthier boundaries while meeting me exactly where I am each session. She’s attentive, responsive, and truly listens. I’m grateful for her expertise and compassion.
