Rebecca McWhorter, LCSW # 87376 I have experience working with individuals across all age groups and within diverse multicultural settings. I begin by meeting clients where they are, whether they are struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, or grief. My practice is centered on compassionate, client-focused care. My journey began working with at-risk youth prior to college, which inspired me to continue outreach with individuals and groups facing significant challenges. This path ultimately led me to the field of Social Work. Through Telehealth, I have been able to expand my practice into new areas, taking on challenges that continue to drive my passion for this work.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

My first session typically begins with some brief “housekeeping,” where I provide important information based on your prior experience with mental health services. From there, we move into an initial assessment to better understand your history, what brought you here, and where you would like to go next in your journey.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

I am trained in several therapeutic approaches designed to create new insights into your feelings and behaviors. Together, we will develop a tailored plan based on your unique needs. This may include clarifying your goals and desires, learning practical tools for healthier communication, and identifying unhelpful patterns as they arise so you can make more intentional choices.

My treatment methods

Dialectical Behavior (DBT)

This works best for Personality D/O because if talk therapy does not work DBT is the best course of action for personality D/O.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-i)

Cognitive behavioral therapy is used to treat conditions such as depression, anxiety and obsessive-compulsive disorders, and addictions.

Grief Therapy

Grief counseling is a type of professional therapy designed to help you work through the various stages and range of emotions you may feel after a loss. If this is a death you are dealing with, an end of a relationship, or even a loss of a pet.
