Hello, I'm Rebekah. Life is hard. Things don’t always go as we plan, and it’s easy to feel overwhelmed by the stress of relationships and life transitions. But there is hope; you are not alone. I am here as a caring presence, ready to listen and guide you through whatever challenges you may be facing. Together, we will work towards helping you emerge stronger, more self-aware, and more gracious with yourself. With 13 years of experience in the psychotherapy setting and providing counseling in medical hospitals, I am uniquely positioned to help you process grief, live with chronic illness, manage caregiver burnout, adjust to postpartum changes, navigate end-of-life issues, and handle complicated relationships, perfectionism, and the stress and anxiety that come with life transitions. I am committed to being a constant source of support, using the transformative nature of therapy to help you find stability, grace, and purpose amidst the stress and overwhelm. You can expect our sessions to be warm and empathetic, with a compassionate and solution-focused approach. I primarily use client-centered therapy and narrative therapy, believing that you are unique and deserving of a treatment plan specifically tailored to your individual needs and goals. I look forward to hearing your story, exploring where you see opportunities for growth, and understanding what you hope to achieve from our time together. When appropriate, I incorporate psychodynamic therapy to help us uncover the roots of your thoughts and emotions by exploring formative past experiences and patterns in relationships. Together, we can find healing from your stress, reduce your anxieties, and untangle the complexities of your relationships. You will learn lifelong skills and self-acceptance that will guide you on a continuous journey of lasting growth and enduring grace. My goal is for you to grow in self-reflection, recognize your emotions, set expectations, and communicate your needs to yourself and others. The process of therapy can be challenging, but my desire for you is to experience grace and growth. While growth is a lifelong path, the best compliment I receive is when my clients feel ready to continue growing on their own and no longer need to meet with me. I look forward to meeting you soon!
