About Rebecca
My name is Rebecca and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker. I have ten years of experience working with children and adults through crisis residential, outpatient case management, in-home services, and therapy. I support individuals with anxiety, depression, emotional dysregulation, stress responses, or childhood traumas to process difficult events or emotions while identifying and aligning with personal values to work towards individual goals. I believe you are the expert of your own experience and having a safe person to witness and explore your experience is highly validating, fostering deeper connection with self and others.
I partner with individuals through Acceptance Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy to support emotional flexibility and process traumatic events or chronic stressors. My approach is grounded in empathy and collaboration while using trauma-informed and communication to reinforce a safe therapeutic alliance.
I commend you on taking this next step- while it might be overwhelming, you deserve to take the time and space to invest in your healing with support that feels safe, compassionate, and attuned to you. When you’re ready, I invite you to schedule an appointment and I’d be honored to support you.
"Throughout my own journey, I have learned how powerful having a strong support is in developing the skills needed to commit to our values and goals, have love and compassion for ourselves and experiences, and build strong self-worth and self-efficacy to guide us through life. I strive to be that strong support for others and foster lasting change for personal development. My approach is grounded in empathy, collaboration, and understanding how experiences shape who we are."
Get to know Rebecca
Why did you decide to become a counselor or psychiatric provider?
I have seen firsthand the benefits therapy can bring to one's quality of life and relationships with themselves and others, inspiring me to become a therapist. Having social support can make a tremendous impact on someone's ability to build and maintain hope for their future, as well as in facing the challenges we encounter.
What's one thing you wish all clients knew about therapy, mental health, or the healing process?
The healing process is not necessarily about the "destination," its about small practices we implement every day to honor ourselves and is an ongoing practice.
What can clients expect in their first session with you and in the early stages of therapy?
In our first session, I review current concerns, your expectations and goals for therapy, and historical information related to your life experiences and social supports. This helps me understand you as the expert while identifying approaches and support I can offer for your unique goals
What personal experiences or values inform your practice as a therapist/provider?
I value non-judgement and the power behind feeling witnessed and understood, which are aspects I strive to incorporate for clients in sessions.
How do you tailor therapy to meet each client’s unique needs?
In addition to a trauma-informed approach, I also believe that you are the expert of your own experience and there are many things I can learn from you in the therapeutic relationship which can guide our work together. I am also open to feedback and like to regularly check in about how our process is feeling for you and if there are any changes we would like to make together.
