About Skip

Rev. Skip Beyer combines practical therapy methods with a faith-informed perspective to help people move through difficult life transitions.

Background and approach

He draws on 19 years of clinical experience and a background that includes a master's degree in community counseling and a divinity degree in theology.

As an LMHC licensed in Indiana (IN LMHC 39001837A), he weaves cognitive techniques, empathic listening, and pastoral sensitivity to support clients facing issues such as addiction recovery, depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, grief, coping with life changes, and intimacy or relationship concerns.

Skip integrates client-centered and cognitive behavioral approaches alongside mindfulness and narrative methods, tailoring treatment plans to individual needs and offering scripture-based support when requested. He works with people navigating divorce recovery including infidelity, pre-marital preparation and communication skills, and a range of stressors from chronic illness and caregiver strain to trauma, ADHD, and substance-related challenges.

Sessions emphasize identifying and building on strengths, practical coping strategies, and encouragement to begin a sustainable healing process. Located in Indiana, he provides a blend of clinical and spiritual guidance while adapting interventions to fit each person’s goals and preferences.

Evidence-Informed Approaches for Online Care



Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behavior patterns to reduce symptoms like anxiety, depression, and problematic coping. This approach is practical and skills-based, often used to address issues such as addiction recovery, low self-esteem, and mood regulation.

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathy, acceptance, and collaboration, creating space for clients to explore their values and strengths. This method supports people coping with life changes, grief, and relational concerns by centering their experience and building self-directed growth.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and the therapist works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. Treatment plans are adapted over time so the client can try strategies and provide feedback on what helps most.

Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and access. These options make it easier to schedule care around work, family, or mobility constraints and support continuity of treatment when in-person meetings are difficult to arrange.
