I've had my fair share of intrusive thoughts. I recall having thoughts of harm about my newborn and how upsetting it can be to experience them. But I also know how to deal with them now. I'm here to teach you how to treat intrusive thoughts like everyday thoughts, to learn how to just let them pass by. We’ll build a strong relationship founded on trust and safety so you feel comfortable sharing your thoughts with me. I can also be a little silly and use humor to release tensions during sessions.

Why our members love working with Bethany
M.B.
Bethany is great. Her care and our treatment plan has helped me breathe again. I feel a bit more freedom from OCD after each of our sessions.
T.P.
Absolutely loved it! She helped me to realize things about myself and learned new things on how to manage my OCD related to personal things that are causing the episodes!
A.M.
Bethany is very good. Great attitude, patient, knowledgeable, and very good at understanding the intricacies of OCD . I look forward to continuing to work with her.
D.C.
Bethany is incredible. She always takes her time to explain things in ways that I can understand. Bethany also knows how to help adapt coping mechanisms and treatment so that they fit you and your life. I deal with several other conditions alongside OCD and she is very knowledgeable about how to address those as well. She also sets clear goals so you don't lose track of what you are trying to achieve. She's also very kind and funny, which is always really helpful for me when processing difficult things.
A.K.
she's amazing and I couldn't ask for a better therapist
J.T.
I did my first major exposure today and Bethany was with me the entire time while also pushing me and not offering too much assurance, which was good. It was so hard but I’m so grateful for her encouragement and support. I feel like I have a chance at conquering this beast that is OCD!
J.B.
It has been life changing to do ERP with my therapist. She has helped me notice patterns in myself and tackle aspects of my OCD that impede my daily life. She listens well and offers practical tools and compassionate support.
A.R.
Six months ago when I started therapy, I was very skeptical that my ocd habits were really going to be able to change. Working with Bethany Burton I was able to get to a place where I see a real difference with my ocd, for the better. I feel more confident in my capabilities to handle fears and can do things now like touching something “dirty” and not letting it send me into a panic. Very thankful to have started my journey in treating my ocd and I look forward to seeing how much more I can progress.
T.D.
Bethany is a great listener and understands my needs.
M.R.
Bethany was a great support system during my journey. She guided me and provided with great ERP therapy. She listened and helped me find a stronger side of myself.
J.A.
I was nervous with my transfer of therapists; however, Bethany really helped me feel comfortable as if we were already working together.
N.G.
I feel like Dr. Bethany can really help me and I felt comfortable with her.
J.P.
Bethany has truly helped change my life for the better. I looked forward to seeing her for my appointments. She was a firm, yet gentle guide who acknowledged that this journey was hard, but NOT impossible. Thanks to Bethany, I now have the tools to deal with whatever OCD or life throws at me. THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart Bethany!
