About Bethany
Bethany Tschappat helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and life transitions. She is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) working in South Carolina who focuses on practical ways to move forward. Her style is warm and direct, aimed at people who want clear steps and steady support.
Bethany uses a mix of proven approaches to tailor care to each person. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, and client-centered work.
How Bethany works
Sessions focus on skills you can use between meetings, like managing strong feelings and improving communication. Her background includes six years of clinical experience. That experience includes supporting people with trauma and abuse, grief, compassion fatigue, and career or caregiver stress.
She also helps with intimacy concerns, sleeping problems, and self-esteem struggles. In sessions she emphasizes practical steps and collaboration. Clients work on identifying barriers, building self-compassion, and practicing new behaviors.
The approach is faith-informed when that matters to the person, but always shaped by the client's values and goals. Bethany supports people dealing with family of origin issues, attachment and abandonment concerns, fertility and cancer-related stress, and issues common to first responders and healthcare workers. She aims to create a straightforward, supportive space where people can heal and set sustainable goals.

Online support options
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts, connect with their values, and take small steps toward a meaningful life. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and major life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying thought patterns and testing them with practical exercises to change mood and behavior; it often helps with anxiety, low mood, and sleep problems. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is used to process distressing memories and reduce their emotional hold, which can help those recovering from trauma.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, try techniques in-session, and adjust methods based on what the person finds helpful. Clients take an active role in choosing which strategies fit their needs and values.
Online options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to suit different needs. Video works well for face-to-face conversation and skill demonstrations. Phone sessions can fit a busy day or be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or text messaging can support quick check-ins, ongoing coaching, or brief reflections between sessions. These formats make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into a work schedule or caregiving routine.
