About Beth
Beth Tabbert is an Illinois Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) with 10 years of experience supporting people who face stress, anxiety, addiction concerns, relationship and intimacy issues, trauma, and life changes. She focuses on concrete problems like career struggles, grief, parenting strain, and anger while also addressing concerns related to self-esteem, body image, and LGBT matters.
Beth aims to make sessions straightforward and practical. She uses conversational, person-centered work to help people say what matters to them. She often pairs that with cognitive behavioral ideas to spot unhelpful thinking and test new behaviors. Motivational interviewing helps when making big changes feels overwhelming.
In the room she listens first and pays attention to what people want to do differently. Sessions can include gently challenging patterns, practicing new skills, and setting small goals between meetings. For trauma-related concerns she uses trauma-focused methods to address painful memories at a pace the client chooses.
Her background includes practice in a range of clinical settings across Illinois. That variety shaped an approach that moves between support and active problem-solving depending on what a person needs. Beth describes therapy as a collaborative process where the client’s goals guide each step.
People looking for help with social anxiety or phobia, panic, or avoidance often work on gradual exposure and thinking strategies alongside coping skills for stress. Beth encourages practical steps that fit into everyday life so progress can be noticed week to week.
How Beth uses approaches in online work
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, reflecting, and following what the client brings to the session. It helps people clarify goals and decide which problems to tackle first. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thinking and behavior and teaches practical skills to test new ways of responding to anxiety or avoidance.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Beth will talk with each person about their worries, goals, and what feels doable, then suggest methods to try. Decisions about pace and techniques are made collaboratively so therapy fits the person’s needs and preferences.
Confirm current session options before booking to know which online formats are offered. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also makes it simpler to practice skills in real-life settings and bring examples from daily life straight into the conversation.
