Bethany McAvoy, CSW

Welcome!

Hi, I’m Bethany!

When we start working together, I like to get to know you by asking questions that invite you to tell me about who you are and why you are coming to therapy. I will even offer you snacks!

No matter where we go or what we do, always know that the therapy room is a safe place.

My focus as a therapist…

I’m a kind, calm person who wants to help others have a happier life and be their best self.

I provide therapy services to kids (ages 10+), teens, and adults struggling with depression, anxiety, anger management, or bereavement/grief/loss.

Some of my professional background…

I received my Bachelor of Social Work (BSW) degree from BYU-Idaho and my Master of Social Work (MSW) from Campbellsville University.

I’ve been in a helping profession for about five years and providing therapy for about a year. Outside of my work at Utah Psychological Associates (UPA), I have worked at another outpatient clinic with clients who were court-ordered to receive treatment. I’ve also worked in hospice care and with people with developmental disabilities.

Outside the office…

I have lived in Utah, Idaho, and Texas my whole life.

I love music, movies, baking, video games, crafts, and being with my family.

I’m a lover of Halloween and Christmas, animals, and laughing!
