More about Rebecca

- LMFT
I'm a therapist dedicated to supporting individuals through life's most challenging moments. My work centers on creating a safe, affirming space where you can explore your authentic self—whether that involves navigating identity, relationships, trauma, or questions about meaning and purpose.
I bring a trauma-informed, client-centered approach to therapy, drawing on evidence-based practices to address anxiety, stress, relationship dynamics, and the complex emotions that often accompany major life transitions. I'm particularly passionate about working with LGBTQ+ clients and those exploring alternative relationship structures, as well as supporting individuals healing from trauma, abuse, and attachment wounds.
My areas of focus include self-compassion and forgiveness, communication skills, family and relational patterns, mood challenges, and the intersection of identity and belonging. I also work with concerns like grief, shame, self-harm, dissociation, and the unique pressures of caregiving and workplace stress.
I believe therapy works best when built on honesty, respect, and genuine collaboration. My role is to listen without judgment, ask thoughtful questions, and help you reconnect with your own wisdom and resilience. I'm honored to walk alongside you as you move toward greater clarity, healing, and wholeness.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
