Meet Rebecca

Every client deserves the safety and security that connected relationships have to offer. To that end, my approach to therapy involves finding ways to cultivate emotional safety, not only in the therapy room but also in the context of the relationships where people live their lives. All clients, whether individuals, couples, or families, come into therapy as part of a web of interconnected relationships that impact their day-to-day lives. By addressing client concerns in the context of these interlinked pieces, we can more fully address the stressors of everyday life and identify solutions together. 

My approach to therapy is affirming and collaborative. My role as your therapist is to bring the expertise of the therapy process to your treatment, while you bring the expertise of your life. Both are essential to making progress towards your treatment goals.

This is also how I work with children. Not only do I include parents as an integral part of the process, I also utilize developmentally appropriate treatment approaches for children or adolescents. While we build this working relationship together, I provide personalized parenting support through the use of the Positive Discipline Parenting model. Together, we integrate play therapy, expressive interventions, talk therapy, parent sessions, and family sessions into treatment in the best combination for your specific family to help you meet your treatment goals. 

With couples, I strive to help both individuals identify ways they’re struggling to connect. Together, we find the roadblocks that are impeding communication, and identify the root of the problem. By understanding the underlying emotions, points of pain and longing within the relationship, we can see how communication is breaking down and why addressing those emotional vulnerabilities allows us to work towards fostering a deeper connection for both partners. 

I have experience working with families across the lifespan: from the challenges of neurodivergence, to life transitions, to the unique stressors of the LBGTQIA community. My role is to help you navigate the most stressful times in your life with an experienced guide. 

My educational background includes degrees in linguistics and anthropology as well as a seminary-based degree in Marriage and Family Therapy, so I have both academic and practical experience working with families from faiths and cultures from across the world.
