Beverly Rivard, LCSW

Beverly Rivard is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with more than 22 years of experience as a counselor, social worker, life coach, and energy healing practitioner. She works from a strengths-based perspective that emphasizes positive psychology, believing that building on existing strengths is as important as addressing problems. Beverly integrates mindfulness practices and qigong into her work to help people manage stress and support overall well-being.

She is licensed to practice in Alaska and Utah and brings a flexible, person-centered style that honors differences in culture, gender, religion, race, lifestyle, and belief. Beverly welcomes clients who are recovering from pain related to race, gender, beliefs, or neurodivergent ways of thinking, and she enjoys working with both U.S. and international clients.

Beverly’s approach blends client-centered and solution-focused techniques with elements of existential therapy, hypnotherapy, and mindfulness-based practices. She aims to help people navigate life changes, grief, relationship challenges, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, ADHD, parenting concerns, career transitions, sleep difficulties, and compassion fatigue among other areas.

Now living in the desert southwest, Beverly balances professional work with creative pursuits such as traveling, writing, and making things with pen and paper, yarn, beads, and clay. She maintains a personal practice of mindfulness meditation and qigong and describes herself as a deeply spiritual person. Beverly looks forward to supporting clients toward greater happiness and health.
