Beth Revell-Matthews

When I’m not in therapist mode, I have plenty to keep my hands full. I enjoy cooking and baking for my children and friends. I was born in England and have traveled a fair amount, so I enjoy experimenting with different cuisines and blending cuisines. Savoury pastries are my favorite, to eat and make.

I completed a study abroad program in Egypt that has heavily influenced my understanding and passion for being culturally competent. I originally planned to go into Macro Social Work and work with Non governmental organizations, but my path took me into the world of individual therapy. When my children are grown and living their own lives, I hope to work with Doctors Without Borders.

I try to live an active lifestyle and for each three sessions that I complete, I try to spend an hour working out or engaged in movement. I once read a book called the “No Impact Man” about a person who spent a year with the goal of living a carbon neutral lifestyle, that book has partially contributed to my thrifty lifestyle and my ongoing pursuit of reducing food waste. I enjoy the backyard chickens that my family has and enjoy growing food in my patio garden.
