Dr. Beth Pyritz

Therapist

Virtual • Florida


As a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, I help individuals and couples navigate life’s challenges with understanding, authenticity, and hope. I believe therapy should be a collaborative and compassionate space where clients feel safe to explore their emotions, strengthen relationships, and move toward meaningful change.

I specialize in helping clients manage anxiety, depression, relationship stress, life transitions, and perinatal mood and anxiety disorders (PMADs). Supporting women and families during pregnancy and postpartum is a particular passion of mine. I am dedicated to helping mothers and parents navigate the complex emotional changes that can accompany this season of life, providing a safe and nonjudgmental space for healing, adjustment, and connection.

My approach blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused techniques, and Mindfulness, allowing me to tailor treatment to each person’s unique needs and goals.

I provide therapy through a secure telehealth platform, making it easier for clients to access support from the comfort of their own environment. My goal is to help you gain insight, build resilience, and rediscover a sense of balance, confidence, and connection in your life.

Deciding to look for a therapist let alone beginning therapy can be a daunting task for many. We’re told that our mental health isn’t a priority, that we shouldn’t be weak and that we should ‘stop being sad’ or ‘get over it’ with such great advice from family and friends alike no wonder our issues and stresses seem to only get worse. More often than not we seek therapy because the people in our lives refuse to go to therapy.
