About Beth

Beth A Bunting is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Pennsylvania. She has worked in social work for three decades and helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, bipolar disorder, grief, parenting strain, relationship problems, ADHD, and related concerns such as infidelity and communication issues.

Beth meets people calmly and encourages open discussion of what’s worrying them. She uses straightforward conversation and practical steps to help people manage symptoms and make small changes that add up. Sessions focus on understanding what’s happening now and testing ways to respond differently.

Her background includes a master’s degree in social work from the University of Pennsylvania and long experience in individual and group settings. That history shapes a flexible style that mixes teaching skills with time to talk things through.

In practice she draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people notice unhelpful thinking patterns and try new behaviors. She also works on relationship and family concerns, parenting stress, attachment and blended family issues, and caregiver burnout.

Beth pays attention to practical goals like improving communication, setting boundaries, managing anger, and rebuilding trust after infidelity. She also supports people dealing with adoption or foster care matters, trauma, hearing impairments, and the emotional fallout of life transitions.

How Beth Uses CBT Online and What to Expect

CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, focuses on identifying thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. Sessions teach practical tools to test unhelpful beliefs, try different responses, and track small changes over time. This approach is often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and some relationship patterns.

She also brings experience from group work into one-on-one sessions, using discussion and skill practice to strengthen communication and coping. These brief, skills-based methods aim to give clear steps clients can use between meetings to manage mood, anger, or caregiving strain.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That may mean starting with CBT techniques and adding other strategies as progress is reviewed.
