About Beverly
Beverly Crippen is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 30 years of experience. She is licensed in California and Utah and practices in Utah. Beverly works with people facing depression, anxiety, relationship strain, parenting concerns, and questions about life purpose.
Her background includes work in adoption and foster care, addiction recovery, outpatient mental health programs, faith-based family services, and private practice. That range informs her approach to common problems like communication breakdowns, control issues, and separation after divorce.
Beverly favors a client-centered way of working. She approaches sessions with respect and encouragement and helps people identify their own answers. She also uses specific techniques drawn from cognitive behavioral therapy to help change unhelpful thinking and behavior.
In practice she blends talk-based support with concrete tools. Those tools can include stress-management techniques, mindfulness and meditation practices, and some inner child work. She also addresses practical concerns such as money and career stress when they come up.
Sessions focus on clear, manageable steps rather than vague goals. Beverly often helps people untangle guilt, shame, isolation, and social anxiety so they can make decisions about relationships, parenting, or next steps in work or life purpose. She works in English and does not take international clients.
How her approaches fit into online work
Beverly uses client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy as core parts of her practice. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening, respect, and helping people name their own goals; it is useful when someone feels unsure what direction to take. Cognitive behavioral therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and provides concrete skills to reduce anxiety, manage stress, and shift patterns that get in the way.Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. Beverly will work with each person to decide which methods match their goals, needs, and preferences rather than prescribing one set path. That conversation usually happens in the first few sessions and can be revisited as progress is made.
If you plan to use online sessions, confirm the available session formats before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. It can also let people use mindfulness exercises and cognitive tools between sessions, so therapeutic work extends into everyday life.
