I am a Board Certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner with over 24 years of clinical experience. With extensive training across all age groups—from children to seniors— I also hold a Doctorate of Nursing Practice degree. I believe healing comes through compassion, understanding, and hope. I offer both in office and virtual appointments.

My physical office is located in downtown Tampa.

First session

I work with patients struggling with depression, inattention, anxiety, and trauma. During our intake session, after discussing presenting impetus for care, we will create a collaborate plan for treatment. Most of my patients see a progressive improvement in symptoms within the first month of treatment. With continued support and medication management, many patients find viable results.

Strengths

I combine evidence-based medicine with holistic approaches to create personalized treatment plans that may include therapy, medication, or both, depending on your unique needs.

Ideal clients

With over 25 years of clinical experience, I have cared for patients across the life-span presenting with various co-morbidities and conditions. I look forward to helping you make life changing improvements to your mental wellbeing. I am a Tampa psychiatric provider accepting new patients for depression, maternal mental health, anxiety, ADHD, and other mental health conditions. I complete appointment both virtually and in a welcoming office setting.

Treatment methods

Motivational Interviewing

As part of my psychotherapy approach, I incorporate Motivational Interviewing (MI) into routine psychiatric care to help patients identify their own reasons for change, overcome ambivalence, and build confidence in achieving meaningful, sustainable improvements in mental health. My approach emphasizes collaboration, empathy, patient autonomy, and individualized goal setting to promote lasting behavioral change and improved treatment outcomes.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

Life can be hard sometimes; then it can be good. I have learned, there really is hope and healing. Sometimes maybe you just need someone to talk to, sometimes you may need medication, and then there are times you need both. With a commitment to excellence and a belief in not only conventional medicine but also holistic approaches to well-being, acceptance, and healing you can expect to find understanding, professionalism, solutions, and enrichment.

Supportive

With a passion for overcoming the stigma surrounding mental illness, I aim to afford compassion, implement change, and ultimately reach optimal outcomes in the field of psychiatric mental health. I find inspiration in the film Life Itself: “Life brings you to your knees. It brings you lower than you think you can go, but if you stand back up and move forward, if you go just a little farther, you will always find love”.

Integrative

As a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner, I combine evidence-based psychiatric care with an integrative, lifestyle-focused approach to help patients achieve meaningful, lasting improvement in their mental and physical well-being. Every treatment plan is individualized and designed to address the whole person—not just a diagnosis or a list of symptoms.

My first session was nice , Dr. Helliger made me feel invited to open up and share my most intimate feelings about my family and myself. I look forward to our upcoming sessions. I believe I’m at a great start to be able to understand and release most of (if not) all of my wondering thoughts that keep my mind racing . I feel she will be easy to talk to ,most importantly to listen to all of the woes of life that I’m experiencing.

I appreciated speaking with Rebekah today. She was a good listener as we discussed my background and introduced myself. I felt Rebekah is a good listener and leveraged her expertise in offering me different alternatives including her experience which I highly valued. I also felt Rebekah offered a view of a larger picture of considerations that can help me as well. Great experience
