Beth Walker


Beth (she/her) is excited to return to SHAC for the 2026-2027 academic year as a Social Work Resident. She earned her Master of Social Work from PSU and her B.A. in Political Science from Arizona State University.

Through her work as a Social Work Trainee at SHAC and a Crisis Intervention Intern staffing the Suicide and Crisis LifeLine, Beth has supported clients navigating a variety of challenges, including anxiety, depression, interpersonal effectiveness, identity development, and acute life stressors. Additionally, she brings significant experience in community organizing and navigating the complex systems that often impact mental health, such as housing, reproductive freedom, labor rights, and immigrant justice.

In her work with clients, Beth engages through a person-centered approach that honors the client as the expert of their own life while exploring the ways broader systems impact our well-being.

In her free time, Beth loves going to the beach, watching countless TV shows, working on puzzles, riding her e-bike, and spending time with loved ones, including her partner and cat.
