Bethami Lawson

Psychotherapist

Hi! I’m an integrative psychotherapist based in Los Angeles with an entirely tele-health practice. I have over a decade of experience and am trained in a wide variety of treatment modalities - all of which I draw from in order to tailor the therapy to the unique individuals I see.

About Me

I offer a flexible approach, drawing from my decade of experience and diverse training to truly tailor our work. This means we build a unique path just for you, integrating various techniques to suit your specific needs. If you seek a collaborative space where therapy adapts to your pace and goals, I can help you find clarity and develop strategies that feel right for you. All sessions are conveniently offered online.

Approach

Therapy takes shape through a collaborative rhythm, paced to what feels manageable and practical while we track what shifts between sessions. All work happens online, in English, from my Los Angeles telehealth practice, so sessions often blend focused conversation with short experiential checks—mindful breath, body-awareness, and relational mapping—to make patterns palpable and workable. I often suggest small, tailored experiments to try between meetings so learning lands in daily life. People coping with anxiety, trauma, grief, body-image or relational shifts tend to find this steady, adaptable way of working helpful.
