About Skip
Rev. Skip Beyer is an Indiana LMHC with 19 years of counseling experience. He works with adults facing addiction, anxiety, depression, grief, and relationship struggles, including codependency and intimacy-related issues. He blends clinical methods and faith-informed conversation when clients want that element included.
He helps people who feel stuck after loss, divorce, or betrayal. He also works with those trying to recover from drug, alcohol, sex, or porn addiction. Sessions focus on practical skills for managing stress, sleeping problems, anger, and mood swings related to bipolar issues.
Skip uses client-centered principles to pay attention to what the person brings into the room. He draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thought patterns and try different ways of thinking and behaving. Mindfulness practices and narrative work are also part of his approach for people who want to explore how life stories shape current problems.
Faith issues and spiritual beliefs can be included when requested. He may reference scripture as one tool alongside clinical methods for clients who prefer that integration. Treatment plans are adjusted to match each person's goals and practical needs rather than a fixed model.
Sessions aim to strengthen communication and boundary skills for people who struggle with people-pleasing or losing themselves in relationships. He also supports clients coping with caregiver stress, chronic illness, attachment and abandonment concerns, and the complications that follow adoption or foster care.
Skip emphasizes short-term strategies and ongoing skills practice so clients leave with clear steps they can try between sessions. He invites people to start by clarifying immediate goals and small, measurable changes.
How sessions work
How Skip’s therapies translate to online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and making space for the client's priorities. Online sessions using this approach concentrate on what matters most to the person and follow their pace. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thoughts and test different behaviors; online CBT often includes setting small practice tasks between meetings to track progress. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple present-moment skills to reduce reactivity and stress and can be practiced in short exercises during or after a session.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide which combination of methods fits best based on goals, comfort, and what actually helps in daily life. That plan can change as progress is made or new problems arise.
The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It also supports using homework, mindfulness recordings, and worksheets between meetings to build skills that carry into everyday routines.
