Beth Pierce
Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist -
Choosing a therapist is a meaningful step, especially if you’re not fully sure how to describe what’s going on. Many people I work with are doing “fine” on the outside but feel stuck, disconnected, overwhelmed, or worn down on the inside. Others reach out during relationship stress or a life transition when old patterns aren’t working anymore. I’m a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who works with individuals and couples navigating relationships, identity, and change. My style is warm, grounded, and collaborative. Therapy with me is practical and focused, with enough structure to help you move forward while still making room for the emotional complexity underneath. I specialize in couples therapy, including recurring conflict, communication breakdowns, emotional distance, trust repairs, and the “roommates” feeling. Many couples care deeply about each other but feel caught in cycles they can’t interrupt. We slow those patterns down, clarify what’s really happening, and build tools that support closeness, steadier communication, and repair. I also work with individuals navigating anxiety, stress, relationship concerns, big decisions, and questions about direction or meaning. This often includes people in their 20s and 30s balancing careers, partnership, and major life changes. My approach is informed by evidence-based models including the Gottman Method, Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), and attachment-based work. Sessions are active and engaged, balancing insight with concrete strategies you can use between sessions. Clients often tell me they feel supported and gently challenged. My goal is for therapy to feel steady, clarifying, and genuinely useful. If it sounds like a fit, I’d be glad to connect.
I am licensed to see clients in CA, WA, OR, FL, TX, VA, and AZ. $275/session, self-pay — I don’t bill insurance directly but provide monthly superbills for out-of-network reimbursement.
