About Bethany

Bethany Virgilio is a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) with more than 20 years of experience in the field of mental health. She frames therapy as a simple, nonjudgmental conversation where people can explore new ideas and leave feeling more open to change.

Her clinical work spans the age range from young adults through geriatric clients, bringing familiarity with developmental and life-stage concerns. She often integrates mindfulness strategies into sessions and emphasizes practical steps that make therapeutic goals feel manageable and actionable.

Bethany is experienced in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and has completed extensive work related to anxiety and panic disorder. Her approach aims to blend evidence-based methods with a calm, collaborative style. She looks forward to meeting new clients and supporting them through their challenges.

Could Virtual Therapy Be a Good Fit?

Many people wonder whether meeting with a therapist online can truly help. For a wide range of common concerns - including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and navigating life changes - online therapy has been shown to be just as effective as traditional in-person sessions.

One major benefit is flexibility. Individuals can connect with a therapist in whichever format feels most comfortable - through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging - making it easier to fit care into busy schedules.

Licensed professionals provide clinical care in these formats, and people may switch therapists at any time if they prefer a different fit. For many, remote sessions make consistent therapy more accessible without sacrificing the collaborative work that supports progress.
