Individual Therapy at BeUTherapy
Your experiences matter. Your healing deserves intention.
Life can bring moments that leave you feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, uncertain, or emotionally exhausted. Sometimes, the challenges you face are connected to a specific experience. Other times, they develop gradually through relationships, responsibilities, past experiences, and the expectations you’ve learned to carry.
Individual therapy offers a dedicated space to slow down, process your experiences, better understand yourself, and develop the tools needed to move through life with greater awareness and intention.
At BeUTherapy, we provide culturally responsive, trauma-informed online therapy for adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, identity challenges, relationship concerns, and major life transitions.
Our work goes beyond addressing immediate symptoms. Together, we explore the experiences, beliefs, emotional patterns, and relationships that may influence how you see yourself and navigate the world.
Because healing isn’t about becoming someone else. It’s about creating space to fully Be U.
You Don’t Have to Have It All Figured Out
You don’t need to be in crisis to benefit from therapy. Sometimes, recognizing that something no longer feels aligned is enough reason to seek support.
Individual therapy may be helpful if you’re experiencing:
- Anxiety & Emotional Overwhelm: Persistent worry, racing thoughts, stress, or difficulty managing emotions.
- Depression & Low Motivation: Persistent sadness, emotional exhaustion, loss of interest, or feeling disconnected from yourself.
- Identity & Self-Worth Challenges: Self-doubt, perfectionism, people-pleasing, difficulty setting boundaries, or questioning who you are.
- Trauma & Difficult Experiences: Unresolved emotional wounds, painful memories, or patterns connected to past experiences.
- Relationship Concerns: Communication difficulties, attachment patterns, conflict, trust concerns, or navigating unhealthy relationship dynamics.
- Life Transitions & Grief: Divorce, motherhood, career changes, loss, family changes, or major shifts in identity and responsibility.
Whether you’re seeking relief from emotional distress or a deeper understanding of yourself, therapy can provide a supportive place to begin.

An Approach as Individual as You Are
No two people arrive in therapy with the same experiences, challenges, or goals. Your treatment should reflect that.
At BeUTherapy, therapy is collaborative, intentional, and grounded in understanding the whole person.
Founded by Destiny Howell, LCSW, our practice integrates evidence-based approaches with an understanding of the social, cultural, relational, and emotional experiences that influence mental health.
Depending on your needs and treatment goals, therapy may incorporate:
- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): Exploring the relationship between thoughts, emotions, and behaviors.
- Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT): Strengthening emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness.
- Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR): Supporting the processing of distressing experiences and trauma-related symptoms when clinically appropriate.
- Attachment-Based Therapy: Understanding relational experiences, emotional connections, and patterns of attachment.
- Parts Work & Internal Family Systems-Informed Interventions: Exploring different internal experiences, protective patterns, and emotional needs.
- Mindfulness & Acceptance-Based Approaches: Increasing present-moment awareness, psychological flexibility, and self-compassion.
Our goal is not to apply a one-size-fits-all approach, but to create a therapeutic experience that honors your history, strengths, needs, and goals.
