About Rebekah
Rebekah Smith, LCSW, uses a practical, person-focused approach to help people manage stress and anxiety. She keeps sessions straightforward and calm so worries can be named and worked through. Rebekah emphasizes listening first and then helping people find useful steps forward.
She creates a welcoming space where clients can talk about relationship strains, family conflict, trauma, and grief without feeling judged. Conversations focus on daily life challenges like sleep problems, parenting strain, or career stress.
Background and approach
Sessions explore what is getting in the way and what small changes might help. Rebekah draws from several methods that help people notice thoughts and choose actions that match their values. She also uses skills that strengthen emotional awareness and improve how people connect with others.
Work may include practical tools for regulating strong feelings and changing unhelpful thinking patterns. With four years of experience and a Maine LCSW credential, she blends structured techniques with a warm, client-centered style. That mix supports people who face depression, bipolar mood concerns, or difficulties with eating and substance use.
Rebekah also addresses adoption and foster care issues, aging concerns, and family-of-origin problems. Sessions are offered in English and can take place by video calls, phone, live chat, or text messaging. Starting involves a short matching questionnaire and scheduling through the Start Therapy flow.

How Rebekah’s approaches translate to online care
Rebekah uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and decide what matters most to them, then take small steps toward those values. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify patterns of thinking that increase anxiety and to practice different, more helpful ways of responding.Finding the right approach is a team effort. She will work with each person to pick methods that fit their goals and preferences, and adjust as progress is made. The plan is collaborative and may combine approaches over time to match changing needs.
Online sessions are available by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to offer practical flexibility. Video is useful for deeper conversations and exercises that use visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging suit quick check-ins, skill practice between sessions, or shorter coaching-style support. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family, and other commitments.
