Services at Brite
Individual Therapy
Traditional therapy is weekly or biweekly individual work with a therapist. Get to know yourself better. Identify and understand patterns (the good and the bad) that impact you. Learn skills needed to maximize your ability to live your life with more balance.
Issue-Specific Therapy
You don’t have to solve every problem in your life to feel better in a meaningful way. Want to address a specific issue or goal or develop a set of skills? Issue-specific therapy (sometimes also called intensive therapy) may be for you.
Couples Therapy
Disagree fairly and effectively. Balance household tasks and maintain that balance. Make important life decisions and feel like a team. Set goals and plan how to achieve them. Couples therapy can help strengthen relationships that are already strong or provide tools to help couples get back on track when a relationship is on shaky ground.
Therapy and Consultation for Therapists
Therapists are the ultimate change-makers and Brite is here for you. A significant percentage of Brite clients are therapists themselves. Beth approaches therapy for therapists from a whole-person perspective, working to help therapists align their many roles (and address their unique stressors). Beth also provides ethics and treatment planning consultation for peers.
Speaking and Training for Organizations
Brite helps groups large and small build mentally healthy cultures. Beth provides speaking and training services on a variety of mental health topics such as stress management, positive communication, and the impact of trauma on individuals. She focuses on making the experience enjoyable – and actually usable – for her audiences.
About Me
Hi, I’m Beth.
Hi. I am Beth Burkstrand-Reid. Clinical Social Worker. Mom. Dog rescuer. Hockey fan. I laugh loudly, listen to bad pop music, and love documentaries. I am action-oriented, direct, and optimistic – but also realistic. I believe everyone has strengths. (Really.) Sometimes people just need help finding them and figuring out how to use them.
