Bethany Bedford, Graduate Associate
Supervised by Stacie Robertson, MA, LMFT-S
Bethany is the first generation in her family to attend university, graduating Summa Cum Laude from Texas State University in 2022 and currently in the Master of Science in Marriage and Family Therapy program through the remote hybrid program at Northwestern University.
Bethany is passionate about working with couples of all iterations to develop healthier, connected, fulfilling, and happier relationships, with families to enhance and heal their connectedness, approaches individual counseling from a systemic lens to decrease shame and increase holistic understanding of self, and strongly believes that therapy can be embraced and normalized as positive relational healthcare.
In her graduate program, Bethany experiences comprehensive training in many empirically-based therapy models in order to provide tailored, informed, and client-specific therapy treatments to meet her clients exactly where they are.
Rather than trying to fit you into a therapy box that might not fit your unique goals and needs, she is specifically trained to approach each client, couple, relationship, and family with deep consideration, cultural humility, and intentional care.
With Bethany you will be met with openness, engagement, curiosity, intentionality, thoughtfulness, non-judgement, and a deep dedication to collaborate with you to participate in meaningful work towards your specific goals and intentions.
Bethany’s areas of interest include but are not limited to: intimate relationships of any form, communication issues, parenting (becoming the parent/parenting team you want to be, improving connection with your children and/or co-parent, single parenting, fertility, etc), trauma healing, complex family dynamics, LGBTQIA inclusivity, integrative systems theories, preventative care or remedial support, infidelity, positive psychology, group therapy, attachment styles and healing, internal family systems, ACT, CBT, community healing, and more.
