Background and approach
Rebecca uses a mix of approaches to match each person's needs. She draws on client-centered work to follow what matters most to the person. She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to spot unhelpful thinking and try small experiments that can change mood and behavior.
She has eight years of professional experience and holds the LCSW credential, which stands for Licensed Clinical Social Worker. Rebecca began her practice working with serious life changes and end-of-life concerns, and she continues to support clients through grief and caregiving stress. Sessions are offered in English and are available through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging.
Rebecca describes therapy as a partnership where the client’s goals guide the process. She helps people find clearer priorities and small steps that lead to more manageable days.
How Rebecca’s approaches translate to online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person’s priorities and builds sessions around what feels most important. It helps when someone needs a space to be heard and to sort out values and decisions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems stuck and uses simple, concrete exercises to test new ways of thinking and acting. This approach is useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Rebecca will talk with each person about goals and try methods that match those goals. She treats the process as a collaboration and adjusts the plan as needed based on what proves helpful.
Online sessions can fit different rhythms of life. Video calls let people have face-to-face conversation when visual connection matters. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or when being off camera feels easier. Live chat and text-based messaging offer short check-ins, quick problem-solving, or ongoing support between longer meetings. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while balancing work, caregiving, and daily responsibilities.
