& your path forward

find clarity, confidence,

You’re doing what you can to hold it together—school, work, relationships—but underneath it all, you’re tired. Maybe you’re anxious. Maybe old stuff keeps popping up. Maybe things just feel off and you can’t name why. Whatever it is, it’s messing with your focus, your energy, your ability to care about anything the way you used to. And you’re over it.

You don’t have to be in a crisis to begin therapy. You just have to want things to stop feeling so heavy. Together, we’ll sort through the noise—what’s stressing you out, what’s weighing on you, and what’s getting in your way. You might not know exactly what you need yet—and that’s fine. We’ll figure it out together.


Whether you’re burned out, stuck in your head, or spiraling at 2am for the third night in a row, you don’t have to keep doing it alone. Let’s make things feel a little less chaotic—and maybe even a little lighter.

Hi, I’m Mary Kate!

I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Certified Clinical Trauma Professional, and the founder of Beckmen Behavioral Health, PLLC. I specialize in working with teens, college students, and young adults who are impacted by adoption, attachment disruptions, anxiety, & trauma.

I believe that growth happens in the moments when we feel safe enough to laugh, vent, or just be ourselves. My approach is pretty straightforward—no fluff, no judgment. I’m here to help you get clear on what’s going on, support you in making real changes, and figure out how to handle life’s challenges with more confidence.

welcome to your therapy era
