07/29/24 - Dr. Corp has no openings. - I strive to make therapy as collaborative as possible. While my work is informed by a person-centered, warm, and authentic approach, I try to flexibly meet the needs of clients with a range of presentations. I tend to be focused on fostering meaning and discovering one's genuine self, so those who are highly insightful or want to improve their insight tend to enjoy my approach most. I often help clients reflect on past and present experiences and relationships to foster a deeper understanding of how their concerns arose and how to fundamentally improve, not just temporarily manage, their lives

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker who has worked & trained in the mental health field for more than 10 years.

You're slamming the alarm clock; it was another night of broken sleep. Feeling drained and wishing for a moment of peace and happiness. You are giving to others when you're running low and rarely have time for yourself. Pressures and stress are piling up and weighing on your shoulders. You want to reach out for help but are scared of being vulnerable. At night when you lay down to sleep, the thoughts are racing and the worries return. All that you want is understanding, support, and acceptance.

Healing, personal growth and ultimately flourishing, takes effort. We may find ourselves fighting against not only the outside world but sometimes ourselves. And if you are reading this far, then I want you to celebrate…here and now. Offer yourself gratitude. While we may aspire for worldly success in our relationships, work, or daily routines, attempting to do so without knowing ourselves deeply, healing personal and generational wounds, and feeling empowered, we fall short. That's why with clients of varying, intersecting identities and unique concerns, I prioritize personal/systemic insight, authenticity, and acceptance.

Having a compassionate counselor on your side during stressful times can be a great comfort. Whether you’re facing general stress, anxiety or depression Mana Life Counseling is here for you. Together, you’ll break down obstacles in your life and build a personal toolbox of coping strategies. Compassion and understanding are both key strategies in our approach, and through them, you’ll learn how to forge your way forward.

A healer does not heal you. A healer is someone who holds space for you while you awaken your inner healer, so that you may heal yourself." - Maryam Hasnaa

I am committed to supporting and empowering my clients on their path toward self growth and healing. Each client is their own unique person, therefore I combine ideas and techniques from different counseling frameworks. I work with varying ages of adults, with the college age demographic being my primary client focus. Using a culturally competent lens, I specialize in the areas of grief and loss, anxiety, depression, family of origin concerns and interpersonal communication. I am relational, and value the importance of the therapeutic alliance as a tool to facilitate change.

I believe that counseling is a collaborative process between client and counselor. You bring your personal strengths, preferences, and experience. I bring objectivity, encouragement, and tools to help you make the most of your life. If you are struggling with anxiety, obsessive thoughts, and fear , I use an active approach to help you face your fears, when possible.

Whether this is a new time of struggle for you or one it feels you have been in for a while, I am here to help. I provide a warm, compassionate, and non-judgmental space for my clients to process whatever may be going on for them.

For some of us, our ability to maintain a loving, empowered relationship with ourselves can be more challenging due to circumstance, our mental health (or lack thereof), and events that may have happened to us. Perhaps this shows up as struggling to show up for ourselves in ways we do for others. For many, when we feel like our potential is different than our reality, we may turn against ourselves.

I believe that therapy is a wonderful way to explore inner thoughts and feelings in a safe, supportive, encouraging environment. I enjoy working with children, adolescents, and adults who are struggling with a variety of challenges such as trauma, anxiety, depression, stress, ADHD, post partum, infertility, miscarriage, parenting struggles, and family and relationship difficulties. I believe in the integration of body, mind, and spirit and the importance of bringing balance to one's life for optimal functioning. Our journey together would work toward wellness and healing in a trusting, safe, and secure relationship.

Life is sometimes messy and we all need a little help occasionally to navigate the real life struggles that come along. I am a caring, down to earth person who is committed to helping you discover your own best solutions to life's challenges. I don't pretend to know what I don't know. If I can't help you, I will help you find someone who can.

Do you want to simply "survive" in life, or do you want to "thrive" in life? Unfortunately many of us are simply surviving. My name is Bethanne Fetzer.

In relationship therapy, I assist couples in doing the work needed to heal their relationship and move forward, with healthier communication and expectations.

Your mental health matters, and I am here to help you or your teen foster self-awareness, self-compassion, and confidence. We are living in an especially stressful time, and we all need some extra support. There is no one-size-fits-all approach to therapy, so I utilize an empathetic, person-centered approach. Together, we will develop goals and a treatment plan to help you become the best version of yourself. I will be transitioning to Telehealth after May 2024.
