Background and approach
Her style is direct yet warm and she avoids stigmatizing labels. Her experience spans inpatient and outpatient care, forensic and court settings, and community development. She has worked with people facing anxiety, addictions, depression, grief, compassion fatigue, parenting strain, and career stress.
She has also supported those dealing with attachment challenges, sensory regulation, and emotional regulation. Rebecca has focused work with neurodivergent people trying to navigate a neurotypical world. She has also supported active duty military through deployment and reintegration challenges, and she has partnered with pastors and ministry leaders experiencing burnout.
She offers sessions by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging and sometimes schedules Saturday phone visits or evening text sessions by request. Getting started involves choosing the Start Therapy button, completing a short matching questionnaire, and then scheduling according to therapist availability.
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Rebecca often uses Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses on listening, empathy, and helping people find their own solutions. This approach is useful when someone needs a supportive space to process feelings and make decisions.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact. CBT helps with anxiety, stress, and patterns that keep people stuck by teaching practical skills to change unhelpful thinking and behavior.
Finding the right method is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they may combine elements from different approaches to match the situation.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls allow fuller communication when face-to-face feeling matters. Phone sessions can fit into a work break or work better when lower bandwidth is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging make it easier to check in between sessions or for shorter, focused conversations. These options make it easier to continue care around life demands and changing schedules.
