About me

I am a licensed clinical social worker who will approach the challenges clients face using many different theoretical frameworks. What causes a lot of distress in people's lives often stems from a sense of feeling misunderstood along with a loss in personal agency. I will work to help clients identify and frame the struggles they face and then devise together a way to effectively address the issues that currently stand in the way of a contented life.

I’m grateful for Rebecca’s guidance, consistency, and support. She has helped—and is helping—me immensely, especially during a difficult/challenging time in my life. I’m making progress, and somehow a masterpiece and a work of art at the same time.

I have been working with Rebecca now for a little over a month. She has been a tremendous help and sounding board for various obstacles in my life. I’ve never been to therapy before and she has made this experience safe and enjoyable. I look forward to our sessions ahead and my continued growth.

I have only had two sessions with Rebecca & I can already tell a difference in how I am handling this grief I am going through. She understands what I am saying, and always offers great insight. I look forward to more sessions with Rebecca in the future!

Rebecca has been a most perfect person who entered my life to be a supporting anchor as I have weathered the passing of my father, managed a very messy estate and much more. Additionally, I have a mom who needs care, a special needs daughter and work in a very demanding, high stress,/high responsibility career. I have a lot on my plate.

Rebecca has been able to meet with me on Saturday mornings (one of my only free periods) to be a good listener and offer alternate perspectives as I grapple with my complicated situation. I leave our calls with a better feeling and something to think about. Rebecca provides perspective without losing the ability to be immensely supportive. She is very easy to talk to and provides realistic, yet positive feedback. I feel like she helps get to the root of my issue.

I highly recommend her!
