Beard, who won back-to-back WSL titles with Liverpool in 2013 and 2014, returned in May tasked with getting the club out of the Championship at the second attempt.
“This is a unique football club and Yana’s experience of being here before and understanding the pressures and what it means to be a Liverpool football player is something else we took into account,” he said.
“She was outstanding for me at Bristol and she’s a great person as well.”
Liverpool finished third in the Championship last season.
