About Skip
Rev. Skip Beyer is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Indiana. He draws on 19 years of clinical experience to help people manage anger, stress, anxiety, grief, addiction, and related struggles.
He combines listening with practical tools to help people take the next step toward feeling better. He blends clinical approaches with a faith-informed perspective when requested. Sessions may include discussion of personal beliefs and, if a client wants, scripture may be incorporated into counseling.
Background and approach
He emphasizes empathy, compassion, and a steady presence while helping people name strengths and next steps. Skip uses straightforward techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy alongside client-centered listening. He helps people notice thinking patterns that fuel anger, worry, or low mood and practices new responses together.
Mindfulness and narrative ideas are used to build awareness and reframe painful stories. He also draws on psychodynamic ideas to consider how past relationships shape current reactions. Treatment plans are adapted to each person’s needs and priorities.
The focus stays practical - small changes that make daily life easier. People come to him for a range of concerns including trauma, addiction recovery, relationship and intimacy issues, sleep problems, ADHD, compassion fatigue, and coping with life changes. He supports work on communication skills, divorce recovery, abandonment and attachment concerns, and chronic illness or caregiver stress.
Sessions are offered in English and delivered online by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Rev. Beyer aims to help clients find steady gains through clear steps, thoughtful listening, and collaborative planning.

How online sessions use practical approaches
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building a trusting relationship. The therapist follows the person’s lead, reflects feelings, and helps people identify their own strengths and choices. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect and teaches skills to change unhelpful thinking and behavior. CBT can be helpful for anger, anxiety, and low mood. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and improve focus; it can help with stress and managing strong emotions.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and preferences, try methods that fit, and adjust the plan based on what is helpful. Clients are invited to give feedback so the work stays practical and relevant.
Online therapy through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging makes scheduling more flexible. Video calls support face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can fit into a work break or require less bandwidth, live chat offers a focused short check-in, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options help people keep counseling consistent even with busy schedules or travel.
