“I can honestly say I’ve never experienced care like this before. From the first session, I felt like they really saw me and wanted to understand what was going on beneath the surface. They don’t just focus on symptoms—they look at how the brain, body, and even gut health all connect, which made so much sense once I started seeing changes.” – R.U.

Hello! My name is Bethany, and I’m so glad you’re here. I’m currently an LPC-Associate at Serenity Wellness and Counseling Center, working under the supervision of Kelly Peyton, LPC-S, RPT-S, CCTP. I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from the University of Houston and earned my Master’s in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Houston Christian University in 2024.
I have a deep passion for helping others heal, grow, and become more connected to who they truly are. While I’m currently in training to become a Registered Play Therapist (RPT), I enjoy working with a wide range of ages — from young children to teens and adults. Each season of life brings unique challenges, and I consider it a privilege to walk alongside my clients as they work through those challenges with courage and curiosity.
I believe meaningful change happens through collaborative, strengths-based relationships built on emotional intelligence and empathetic communication. My approach is supportive, practical, and deeply respectful of each client’s lived experience. I work alongside children, teens, and adults to help them better understand their emotions, develop healthy coping skills, improve communication, and build confidence in navigating life’s challenges. I aim to create a space where clients feel safe, understood, and empowered to grow at their own pace. Whether someone is working through anxiety, depression, interpersonal or relationship challenges, or personal transitions, my goal is to help them build resilience and reconnect with their inner strengths.
I enjoy working with children, teens, and adults who are looking to gain insight, learn new tools, and find hope again. I have a particular interest in supporting individuals who are facing anxiety, depression, self-esteem challenges, or difficulties related to identity and life direction. I also welcome parents who are looking for support in better understanding their child or teen’s emotional world.
Whether you’re coming to therapy for the first time or returning to it with new goals, I’m honored to be a part of your journey.
I chose to become a counselor to help others in my community. Everyone has a story to tell and silent battles of their own, and I aim to provide a comforting space to share and heal.
Self-care and compassion! We all lead very busy lives, and sometimes we forget to take the time to nurture ourselves and heal our bodies and minds.
Feeling Good by Dr. David Burns. This book holds many ideas for CBT, and was life changing to me when I first read it. I recommend this book to all who are looking for answers to why they may be thinking or feeling certain emotions, and how they can make healthy and substantial changes to their lives.
My ideal client is someone who is ready to get to work! Together, we can find answers to your problems and collaborate to maintain gains made in the therapeutic space and apply them to real-world situations.
What inspires me to help others is the way I can watch people grow and reach their fullest potential. This process of growth inspires me to keep helping those around me and to continue to be a guide on their journey.
Through fun activities such as going out with friends, spending time with loved ones, and engaging in activities I find pleasurable such as going to concerts, long walks, and making art!
My 3 best friends! I love them dearly and they continue to show me support through all of life’s ups and downs, and I wouldn’t be where I am today without them!
The goal for holistic practices is to help heal the whole person, not just parts of them. I aim to help you meet your therapeutic goals by providing you with a warm and inviting atmosphere that focuses on healing the whole you, including your mental, physical, and spiritual well-being.
1. I enjoy crafting! Whether it’s knitting, candle making, DIY-ing, or drawing, I love to create and express myself through art.
2. I love having my head in a book! Some of my favorite genres are YA, romance, and mysteries. It’s even better when it’s all 3!
3. If you can’t find me at work, I am most likely going to be at a concert. As one of my favorite ways to unwind and have fun, I am always looking for shows to see and find new artists to support!
