Bea Giffin, LCSW
they/them
Individual and couples therapy | Adults
Choosing to enter therapy can be an incredibly vulnerable decision, which is why Bea emphasizes creating an environment where clients feel safe and empowered to take steps in their healing journey. They believe that individuals are the experts on their own story and that treatment should be tailored to the client's unique needs, wants, and strengths.
Bea works collaboratively with clients to recognize which patterns in their lives are not working for them and then helps them develop the skills to feel more in control of their thoughts and emotions. Learning more about one's emotions and internal experiences is vital in this process and in moving toward values-based living.
As a social worker, Bea aims to help people live authentically and unencumbered by shame. They create a space where all areas of life can be explored without judgment. Bea primarily utilizes CBT, ACT, and DBT.
Bea specializes in anxiety, OCD, and working with LGBTQ+ individuals. They also work with those struggling with life transitions, grief and loss, depression, and interpersonal concerns. Bea's experience includes specialty training in exposure and response prevention (ERP) for the treatment of OCD as well as certification as a Daring Way facilitator.
Bea obtained a master's degree in social work from the University of Houston and has experience in residential settings treating OCD and anxiety disorders, as well as treating diverse clients impacted by mental heath concerns.
