Background and approach
Sessions are collaborative and paced to each person’s needs. This helps people feel more in control when life feels overwhelming. Her approach combines tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy with a client-centered attitude.
That means she offers strategies to change unhelpful thoughts and habits, while also helping people accept difficult feelings and focus on meaningful action. Rebecca also draws on solution-focused methods to set small, achievable steps between sessions. She often helps people manage grief, caregiver stress, chronic illness challenges, and career or purpose questions.
Her work includes concerns around trauma, anger, LGBT issues, and end-of-life matters. Rebecca is licensed in Indiana as an LCSW, licence number IN LCSW 34002333A. She offers sessions in English and supports people through a range of practical life problems.
Taking the first step can be hard, and she aims to make beginning therapy straightforward and respectful.
Approaches that guide online work and support
Rebecca commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in online sessions. ACT helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then choose actions that match their values. It can be useful for grief, life changes, and ongoing stress. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and changing patterns through practical tools and exercises, which can help with anxiety, depression, and self-esteem.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Clients and the therapist decide collaboratively which techniques to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, giving flexibility in how people connect. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation; phone sessions can be a good fit when bandwidth or camera use is an issue. Live chat and messaging suit brief check-ins, journaling between sessions, or when shorter, frequent contact helps maintain momentum. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and to keep consistent progress over time.
