About Rev. Skip Beyer
Rev. Skip Beyer is an Indiana-based Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with 19 years of professional experience. An IWU graduate, he holds a masters in community counseling and a divinity degree in theology, credentials that inform his combined clinical and faith-based approach to care. He works with a broad range of concerns, including trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem and self-hatred, depression, stress and anxiety, addictions such as sex and porn or alcohol and drug dependency, relationship and family difficulties, intimacy-related issues, sleep problems, anger, bipolar disorder, compassion fatigue, and ADHD, as well as related areas like abandonment, adoption and foster care, caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, codependency, and communication or commitment challenges.
His practice emphasizes identifying and building on strengths rather than focusing on deficits. He uses empathy, compassion, and active listening alongside evidence-informed techniques such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness therapy, narrative therapy, psychodynamic approaches, solution-focused strategies, trauma-focused therapy, and Internal Family Systems. He offers a treatment plan that adapts to each person’s specific needs and integrates faith-based counseling, including the use of scripture, when that aligns with a client’s preferences. He notes that he is not licensed to provide marital therapy except for premarital assessment and preparation.
Rev. Beyer encourages those ready to begin a healing journey and offers practical support to navigate life changes. He often draws on both clinical training and pastoral formation, sometimes referencing scripture to offer perspective and encouragement, as reflected in Proverbs 15:22 - "Without counsel plans fail, but with many advisers they succeed." He is not accepting new clients at this time.

Online therapy can be a practical and accessible option for addressing these everyday concerns and for maintaining continuity of care when in-person visits are difficult.One of the main advantages is flexibility - individuals may connect with a therapist through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, choosing the format that best fits their schedule and comfort level. This range of options helps make counseling more consistent and easier to fit into busy lives.
Licensed professionals offer remote care using a variety of therapeutic approaches, and many clients find that these methods translate well to virtual settings. If a particular therapist is not the right fit, clients can switch to another therapist at any time, allowing for adjustments until the best therapeutic relationship is established.
