I work primarily with people who are struggling with issues of anxiety, depression and relationship difficulties. I help people get relief from their symptoms and take better care of themselves. My style is relational, warm and direct. I have over ten years experience providing therapy to adults. I am trained in both long-term and short-term treatment models and blend insight-oriented and behavioral interventions that are tailored to meet individual goals.

If things at home are tense, chaotic, or not working, therapy can guide you to repairing, restructuring and rebuilding these relationships. Often, people get sucked into repeated conflicts that go in circles, reach stalemate, or always end the same. Having a therapist to guide these conversations can help these conflicts become conversations... conversations where each person feels heard, understood, and supported. Conversations like these can heal old wounds, create a foundation for lasting change, and help people reconnect. Therapy is meant to help you uncover the hidden messages your emotions are trying to tell you every day. I am a licensed clinical social worker, a clinical supervisor. I have been extensively trained in Family Systems, Family Structural, and Eco-systemic Family Therapy, and also train other clinicians in these approaches. I have also been trained in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy as well as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy. Let me help you create time to dedicate to the things that you deeply want, need and care about. Depression, anxiety, shame, and anger are usually symptoms of things within yourself that you have neglected, given up on, or settled for. Instead of just treating the symptoms, I want to help you get to the core of what these emotions are trying to tell you.

I’m deeply passionate about working with teens and young adults who are experiencing anxiety, depression, or neurodivergence. I understand that navigating these challenges can feel incredibly overwhelming and isolating. My clients often come to me feeling stuck and uncertain, desiring clarity and a sense of direction. They are eager to grow and find their path, yet they may not have the tools or support they need to make this vision a reality. My role is to walk alongside them with empathy and patience, helping them build confidence and resilience.

My goal is to provide a supportive space where they can explore their feelings, discover their authentic selves, and move forward with hope and purpose.

I strive to assist clients in rebuilding weakened relationships while also assisting them in their own personal restoration. I also have a passion for working with clients who identify themselves as members of LGBTQ+. System Counseling, as well as Cognitive-Behavioral and Cognitive Restructuring approaches, are blended with Motivational Interviewing techniques to form the basic theoretical foundation of my work with clients. I offer Individual, Couples, and Marriage Counseling, Christian Counseling, Life and Executive Coaching, Consultation, and Clinical supervision.

Welcome! I am Beth Gaudette, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Raleigh, here to help support you during life's daily and complex challenges. I graduated from North Carolina State University with an MSW. My therapy experience focuses on many concerns, including anxiety, depression, family conflict, and parenting, working with a wide range of clients but specializing in working with adolescents through adulthood. I am a warm, positive, and dependable clinician. Everyone experiences roadblocks that can feel overwhelming; a therapist's support can accompany and guide you through those difficulties. Shame and guilt are too prominent in our world, and offering a space without judgment is essential for clients to reach their goals. My approach to therapy is client-centered and individualized for a specific client. I specialize in using cognitive behavioral therapy, acceptance, commitment therapy, and strategic and structural family therapy. Currently through the platform Headway I am credentialed with Aetna, Oscar Health, United Healthcare, Oxford, Cigna insurances and accept private pay on a sliding scale as needed. It is crucial for a client to feel comfortable opening up to their therapist; therefore, before our first session, we will have a 15-minute consultation call to ensure we are a good fit. Our first session will be a safe space to share your experiences. Then, we will work together to create a treatment plan focusing on the goals you want to accomplish. My primary goal is to empower clients to make the changes they want and build up their coping skills to face life's changes and challenges.

This is reminiscent of the human process…ever-changing and ever-evolving. Together we will define wellness for you, your family, and relationships.
