About Beth
Beth Brunelli is a licensed master social worker with ten years of clinical experience in Michigan. She offers a warm, interactive style that aims to make difficult conversations easier. Beth focuses on practical steps people can use right away to feel less overwhelmed and more in control.
She uses a mix of approaches rather than a single method. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people notice and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns.
Background and approach
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy supports people in clarifying values and taking meaningful actions even when uncomfortable feelings remain. Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented. Beth listens closely, then helps map small, achievable changes that address stress, anxiety, or mood concerns.
She also supports people coping with relationship strains, grief, trauma and abuse, addictions, caregiver stress, and life transitions. Her background includes a Master of Social Work from Michigan State University and a Bachelor of Social Work from Northern Michigan University.
Beth draws on a decade of work with diverse concerns including depression, self-esteem, anger, bipolar challenges, and ADHD to create plans that fit each person’s life. People who work with Beth can expect practical skills, grounding mindfulness techniques, and motivational interviewing when needed. She focuses on clear steps and steady progress rather than labels.
Beth aims to help people build coping skills and healthier patterns that hold up between sessions.
Evidence-informed approaches for online therapy
Beth commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in online sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors to reduce anxiety and low mood. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on clarifying what matters to someone and taking small steps toward those values even when strong emotions are present.Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. Beth will talk with each person about goals, past experience, and preferences and then tailor strategies that fit their day-to-day life. The work often combines skill practice, brief experiments between sessions, and simple mindfulness exercises to build steady progress.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions work well for in-depth conversations and skills practice. Phone sessions can be a lower-bandwidth option for shorter check-ins. Live chat or text messaging can help maintain momentum between meetings or fit into a busy schedule. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into everyday life.
