About Beth
Beth Bobbitt is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in California with 13 years of professional experience. She works with stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, low self-esteem, depression, and coping with life changes. She also focuses on issues like caregiver stress, communication problems, guilt and shame, isolation, mood disorders, post-traumatic stress, self-love, and social anxiety and phobia.
Beth takes a straightforward approach in sessions. She treats clients as the experts on their own lives and helps them find practical ways to manage symptoms and improve day-to-day functioning. Conversations are focused on specific goals and small steps a person can try between visits.
Her work includes using Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, or EMDR, for people who are dealing with distress tied to past events. EMDR is used alongside talking and planning to reduce intense reactions and make memories feel less overwhelming.
Sessions move at a pace set by the client and the therapist. Beth draws on 13 years of varied clinical experience in California to shape each session. She helps people break down problems into manageable parts and practice new skills in ordinary situations.
People considering therapy are encouraged to start by completing the site questionnaire and scheduling a first session. The process is practical and goal-oriented, aimed at helping clients notice small improvements and make clearer choices about next steps.
EMDR and practical approaches for online sessions
EMDR, or Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, is a method that combines focused memory work with guided bilateral stimulation to reduce intense reactions tied to past events. It is often used for people coping with distressing memories or strong emotional responses.Alongside EMDR, sessions focus on clear goals, coping skills, and step-by-step plans to handle everyday stressors and anxiety. This includes practicing breathing, grounding, communication strategies, and small behavioral experiments to test feared situations like speaking up or meeting new people.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide whether EMDR or skill-based work is most helpful for their current needs, goals, and preferences. That decision is revisited as progress is made.
Confirm the current session options before booking. The practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions into busy days, shortening commute time, and making it easier to maintain regular appointments. Online sessions can also allow for quicker check-ins when someone needs a brief follow-up between fuller appointments.
