Meet Beth Loyd, MS, LCPC, BCN-L
I believe meaningful growth begins within safe, trusting relationships. My approach brings together professional counseling, relational care and neurofeedback to support children, teens, adults and families according to their individual experiences, needs and goals.
Born in Sandpoint, Idaho, and raised in northwestern Montana, I feel deeply connected to the communities Mountain Haven Pathways serves.
Education and Professional Credentials
My education and specialized training include:
- Bachelor of Science in Psychology from Boise State University
- Master of Science in Clinical Counseling from Northwest Nazarene University, with an emphasis in grief, trauma and crisis
- Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) since 2014
- Trust-Based Relational Intervention (TBRI®) Trained Practitioner since 2015
- Trust-Based Relational Intervention (TBRI®) Educator since 2016
- Board Certified in Neurofeedback (BCN) through the Biofeedback Certification International Alliance (BCIA) since 2025

Clinical Experience
I have worked with diverse populations in a variety of settings, including at-risk youth and adolescents in residential treatment. I have particular experience supporting children from hard places, including foster and adoptive children, as well as the families who care for them.
My experience includes working with:
- Children and teens
- Adults and families
- Senior Citizens
- Foster and adoptive children
- At-risk youth and adolescents
- Individuals affected by grief, trauma or crisis
- Clients interested in therapy, neurofeedback or a thoughtful combination of both
A Relationship-Centered Approach
I use a person-centered approach that respects each client’s story, values and goals. When developmentally and clinically appropriate, I may also incorporate play therapy techniques in my work with children, adults and families.
Trust-Based Relational Intervention (TBRI®) informs my understanding of connection, regulation and the needs of children who have experienced adversity or relational disruption.
Integrating Therapy and Neurofeedback
I began incorporating neurofeedback into my clinical work in 2021 and became certified through the Biofeedback Certification International Alliance (BCIA) in 2025.
When appropriate, therapy and neurofeedback can be used together as part of an individualized plan. Counseling provides space to explore experiences, emotions and relationships, while neurofeedback offers another way to support awareness and regulation of brain activity. Some clients begin with therapy, some explore neurofeedback and others may benefit from a combination of both.
Faith, Family and Connection
My faith shapes my belief in the importance of human relationships, compassion and the inherent value of every person. I strive to create a supportive environment in which clients feel heard, respected and understood.
My husband and I are parents to three wonderful children, and we enjoy an active lifestyle together. I especially value time spent adventuring on the water or in the snow, playing with my children and watching them develop new skills and grow into their individual personalities.
