About Rebecca
Rebecca McLane is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 30 years of professional experience based in Arizona. She helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress and anxiety and those coping with addiction, trauma, and depression. She approaches each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion.
Her work is practical and person-centered. She tailors conversations and plans to each person’s situation. Sessions focus on clear goals and small steps people can use between meetings.
Background and approach
Rebecca aims to make change feel doable rather than overwhelming. She has long experience addressing a wide range of concerns tied to relationships and life transitions. Those include attachment and abandonment worries, communication problems, commitment issues, and family of origin struggles.
She also supports people facing caregiver stress, chronic illness or pain, and recovery from domestic violence or substance use problems. Rebecca is comfortable talking about LGBT issues and the specific stresses that can bring. She also has experience helping people after natural or human-caused disasters and with dependent personality patterns.
Her approach combines steady listening with concrete strategies to manage symptoms and improve daily functioning. Sessions are offered in English and Rebecca accepts international clients. She works with each person to build a plan that fits their life, pacing the work so it feels achievable.
The goal is to help people feel more in control, less weighed down, and able to move forward.
Evidence-based approaches and online care
Rebecca uses straightforward, evidence-based techniques to help manage symptoms and build skills. One frequently used approach focuses on teaching coping skills for anxiety and stress - people learn breathing, grounding, and behavior steps to reduce distress and handle triggers. Another common focus is relapse prevention and support for addictions, which emphasizes identifying triggers, building routines, and planning concrete actions to stay on track.Finding the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will work with each person to decide which techniques fit their goals, needs, and comfort level. Plans are adjusted over time based on what works in real life rather than sticking to one method from the start.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation for in-depth work, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is low or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging are useful for quick check-ins, shorter progress updates, or when a flexible format fits a busy day. These formats make it easier to schedule sessions across different time zones and to fit therapy into daily life.
