Bethany Getgen LPC

As a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania with a Master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Indiana University of Pennsylvania, I'm curious about how each person's values inform and orient their life. My major focuses are queer-affirming therapy, religious trauma, and Complex PTSD. 

Using a person-centered approach that is insight focused, I incorporate skills and perspectives from Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT).

I have over 5 years experience working in LGBTQ+ mental health, including transgender care and supporting clients who are preparing for gender-affirming surgery.

I trained at a college counseling center, and I especially enjoy working with fellow first-generation college students and graduate students.

My Master's degree is in Religion & Culture from Wilifrid Laurier University in Canada provides me with a strong background in religious traditions from around the world, and I have experience working with religious trauma.

I have a special interest in working with Complex PTSD and adults processing relational trauma from their childhood and adolescence.
