As a Marriage and Family Therapist I strive to create a comfortable and safe environment for my clients to engage in the therapeutic process. I work to ensure your concerns are heard and will empower you as we navigate your challenges and work to strengthen your most meaningful relationships.

I work to ensure your concerns are heard and will empower you as we navigate your challenges and work to strengthen your most meaningful relationships.

Together we will assess what is contributing to your problems and develop healthy strategies for you to manage them and reach your goals.

First session

I like to spend the first session getting to know my clients and their reasons for seeking therapy. We will talk about important aspects of the treatment process and I will answer any questions that you may have.

Strengths

My therapeutic approach has been described as compassionate, reflective, and insightful.

Ideal clients

I work with individuals and families to help them find healthy ways to overcome life's transitions and challenges. I utilize systemic theory along with other effective psychotherapy interventions to facilitate meaningful change.

Treatment methods

Structural Family Therapy

I was first trained in structural family therapy in grad school, it is a great foundational method that is very effective for a vast array of reasons clients seek therapy. It also is effective to use in combination with other therapeutic interventions and methods.

I love Rebecca. She provides the best solutions and is very compassionate and caring. After every session I always feel like a weight has been lifted off my shoulders.

My family was extremely nervous and did not want the therapy. Rebecca is a great listener and very easy to talk to. She made us feel comfortable.

Rebecca is very direct in her approach and breaks down the words and language I use in a compelling way that I really connect with.
