Meet Rebekah

Do you feel misunderstood? Does everyone think you’re okay, yet internally you struggle to respond to life’s hurdles in a skillful way? I am particularly sensitive to those pushed to the margins of society due to their identities and offer support and psychoeducation to help mitigate harmful impacts. I help you understand your symptoms and change your relationship with difficult emotional and physical experiences. Therapy takes time and commitment, and you can expect to leave sessions with tools that help you move toward your goals and find your emotional footing.
