Beverly Crippen, LCSW

Beverly Crippen is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in California and Utah with 30 years of practice. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, parenting concerns, and self-esteem struggles. Sessions are offered in English and address practical life pressures alongside emotional pain.

Her background includes work in adoption and foster care, addiction recovery, mental health hospital outpatient programs, faith-based family service clinics, and private practice. That range informs a straightforward approach to common problems like abandonment, guilt, shame, and isolation.

Beverly uses a client-centered stance that treats the person in front of her as the expert on their experience. She pairs that stance with tools from cognitive behavioral therapy when helpful. In practice this means listening first, then suggesting experiments or thought exercises to test and change unhelpful patterns.

Sessions may include mindfulness and meditation, stress management techniques, and work on inner child themes or forgiveness when those fit the issue. She also addresses practical topics like money and career stress, communication problems, control issues, and separation or divorce concerns.

Beverly describes therapy as a collaborative process that focuses on honest conversation and concrete steps. She aims to help people identify what they want to change and try small, doable practices that lead to clearer choices and steadier daily functioning.
