More about Rebecca

  • 9 years' experience
  • Female
  • LISW

I am a licensed clinical social worker who will approach the challenges clients face using many different theoretical frameworks. What causes a lot of distress in people's lives often stems from a sense of feeling misunderstood along with a loss in personal agency. I will work to help clients identify and frame the struggles they face and then devise together a way to effectively address the issues that currently stand in the way of a contented life.

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

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.

I have been working with Rebecca now for a little over a month. She has been a tremendous help and sounding board for various obstacles in my life. I’ve never been to therapy before and she has made this experience safe and enjoyable. I look forward to our sessions ahead and my continued growth.

I have only had two sessions with Rebecca & I can already tell a difference in how I am handling this grief I am going through. She understands what I am saying, and always offers great insight. I look forward to more sessions with Rebecca in the future!

Rebecca has been a most perfect person who entered my life to be a supporting anchor as I have weathered the passing of my father, managed a very messy estate and much more. Additionally, I have a mom who needs care, a special needs daughter and work in a very demanding, high stress,/high responsibility career. I have a lot on my plate. Rebecca has been able to meet with me on Saturday mornings (one of my only free periods) to be a good listener and offer alternate perspectives as I grapple with my complicated situation. I leave our calls with a better feeling and something to think about. Rebecca provides perspective without losing the ability to be immensely supportive. She is very easy to talk to and provides realistic, yet positive feedback. I feel like she helps get to the root of my issue. I highly recommend her!

Rebecca Roark is an outstanding, compassionate, highly professional therapist. She rides the waves with me and guides me to smooth the waters, clear the skies, and see the rainbows of hope on a not-so-distant horizon. Ms. Roark listens intently and responds with kindness, even if the message is painful to hear. Most importantly, she creates/she is a safe space, a safe harbor, where I can anchor my ship to review, repair, and rebuild before I face, or avert, the next storm of life. She is awesome.

Rebecca Roark is a great therapist. During my sessions with Rebecca I learned a lot of valuable information and received extremely vauable feedback. Her observations, feedback, and reccomendations are clear, direct, and easy to understand. I never felt uncomfortable or felt insecure about confiding in her. While I am regrettably no longer a client, if my financial situation allowed it, I would gladly continue seeing Rebecca.
