Bethany was born in Lismore and grew up in the Byron Bay area and hinterland. She received an academic scholarship at age 11 and commenced her education at the Ascham School in Sydney in 1997. Bethany majored in Psychology and Buddhism at the University of Sydney and has been a practitioner of Yoga and Vipassana or Insight Meditation since the early 1990s. This has strongly influenced her work and she offers holistic, integrative psychology and counselling services grounded in clinical practice and current research guidelines. The goal for her clients is recovery, developing life balance, the acquisition of new skills in a non-confrontational manner, connection with oneself, others and the world one lives in, the development of self awareness and self efficacy and the promotion and maintenance of well being, health and happiness. Bethany’s expertise comes from working in psychiatric, mood and drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities in the private and public hospital sectors for over 8 years in Sydney’s eastern suburbs, and the Tweed/Byron region. She has worked in all areas of NSW Health Community Mental Health Services for teenagers to the aged, from emergency and acute settings to case management since 2008. Bethany was the Senior Psychologist for NSW Health Tweed/ Byron LHD in 2014 and 2015. She has been part of the team here at Living Well since February 2014. Bethany is experienced in using a diverse range of psychotherapies while adeptly integrating psychodynamic perspectives to aid clients in breaking through to a new place of wellness in their lives. Her empathic, supportive style embraces neurocognitive, epigenetic and clinical understanding with the practical skills of Cognitive Behaviour Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Mindfulness Integrated CBT and Interpersonal Therapy. Progressive, individualized treatment plans always merge with positive psychology and health psychology perspectives. Bethany is specialized in assisting people who have experienced trauma or seek to resolve complex issues.
