About Bethany

Bethany Kraft is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Colorado with 11 years of clinical experience. She works with people who are coping with family challenges and grief, and she offers telehealth counseling to connect with clients across the state.

Bethany uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people manage anxiety, mood concerns, trauma, and relationship problems. She has worked with a wide age range in past roles and has experience with issues that show up across the lifespan. Her work includes supporting those dealing with adoption and foster care concerns, blended family dynamics, caregiver stress, and fatherhood issues.

In sessions Bethany focuses on clear, practical steps. She helps people name what feels hard, look at how relationships are functioning, and try new ways of communicating or coping. She also works on grief and loss, helping people make sense of big changes and painful endings.

Clients have come from diverse cultural backgrounds, and Bethany pays attention to each person’s context and values. She is direct and calm in session, aiming to help people build on their strengths while addressing real-life problems like communication breakdowns, co-dependency, or separation and divorce.

Outside of clinical practice she keeps learning to improve her skills and stay current with research. To begin, a prospective client completes an online matching questionnaire and schedules a first session through the See online therapy options button.

Approaches used online and how they fit your life

Evidence-based techniques are central to Bethany's work. One common approach focuses on practical coping skills for anxiety and mood problems, teaching simple tools to manage symptoms, reduce overwhelm, and improve day-to-day functioning. Another approach addresses relationship patterns, helping people identify communication habits, practice new ways of speaking and listening, and set clearer boundaries when family dynamics are strained.

Finding the right approach usually takes a few conversations. Bethany works together with each person to decide which methods make sense, based on current problems, goals, and personal preferences. That collaborative process includes trying an approach and adjusting it if something isn’t helping.

Session logistics should be confirmed before booking because formats were not specified in the biography. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules by removing travel time and allowing people to join from locations that suit them. They can also let someone choose shorter check-ins when needed or avoid video if that feels difficult. Confirm the exact session options available when you set up the first appointment.
