Rebecca is very approachable and is the perfect balance of listening and offering insight and suggestions. I also appreciate how she shares her own experiences and struggles - it helped me feel less alone in my thoughts. She breaks down large issues into manageable pieces with next steps. I started therapy focusing on my grief over losing my dad but we are exploring struggles with motherhood, my relationship with my mom and career changes.

I am so glad you made it to my page today as you are deciding who to choose for your therapist. I would like to share with you a little about me and my approach. I have a passion for helping those in need find their inner strength and resilience. We all have it within us to find solutions to our problems; sometimes we just need some guidance. Are you at the point where saying "I just need to try harder" or "I used to be able to" is just not working? I offer an integrative, client-centered approach to counseling. Our work together will be collaborative in nature. Just one small step is all it takes to begin the process of change. If you are struggling, reach out to me and we will begin the process together. Building a strong therapeutic relationship may be the bridge between who you are now and who your are yet to become. I work with a variety of issues including, but not limited to, depression, anxiety, stress, grief, trauma, mood disorders, OCD, panic disorder, and women's issues. Whatever is going on, let's explore together!!!

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Rebecca listens and talks...she doesn't judge or preach or indicate that one way is the only way. She continues to offer me options on how to deal with my issues and in many times can personally relate to how I am feeling...which is very welcome and helpful.
I had seen so many therapist over the years with out feeling better. However after just 3 months of doing sessions with Rebecca I feel a difference. She is teaching me to use tools that have helped me get through a lot of the grief I have had over losing my mama and my aunt. Helping to strengthen my marriage and my relationship with my kids. She is a wonderful therapist.
Rebecca is a truly wonderful therapist. She has actively listened, gives material that helps you understand yourself and what you’re going through. Best and hardest experience in my life to date! It’s never easy but she helps you weather the storm. Thank you so much Rebecca!
i’ve had one therapy session with rebecca and definitely am gonna have more. she’s so kind and checks in on you. she’s a great listener and provides a variety of different ways to help you heal and grow! ❤️
I started Better Help 5 months ago and was matched with Rebecca. This is my first attempt at therapy and I'm so thankful for her guidance and understanding. She made me feel heard and validated my feelings. She also gave me great recommendations on books and YouTube videos that helped me throughout the week between our sessions. I have regained my self confidence and feel like myself again. Talking with Rebecca gave me the opportunity to have my issues heard and validated by an unbiased individual and gave me the confidence to take action in my life. I now feel like I'm back on the right path and in a much healthier head space with plenty of tools to take on life's challenges! Thank you Rebecca and Better Help!
She’s so personable and helpful
Rebecca was expertly matched to me as a therapist who understands my concerns. I appreciate her!
Rebecca is awesome! She has helped me sort out my issues and continues to help me make better choices! Great listener
the best one I've found so far she understands what I want and need out of therapy and deliver that she doesn't go to fast or to slow
Very good therapist, she listens and responds, she is professional and so helpful. I don’t think she would ever know how much she has helped me in just a few weeks, her homework assignments have been helpful and thought provoking. Great therapist that I’d recommend to friends and family (and already have)
