We were not created to live life alone. Our brains are wired for connection. We learn, grow, endure, and flourish in relationship with others. Relationships can be both beautiful and difficult. When relationships are challenging our awareness of our need for emotional safety and support grows. Realizing this need is a sign that something is deeply good and right.

As one realizes their need health and support through counseling, finding a therapist that you can truly connect and feel safe with can be a daunting task or even frustrating. Beginning the journey to wholeness and wellness is a courageous.

Vulnerability can be difficult, whether it be with yourself, your spouse, or your family. When we are overwhelmed our natural tendency is to withdraw and isolate—to run away from ourselves or the people around us. As a relational/systems therapist, Rebecca works within the context of your relational world. Rebecca helps you gain insight into yourself through your relationships to help you create honest, open, and transparent spaces.

Rebecca utilizes an attachment relational based approach to counseling with clients. She practices from an Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) approach as well as working from a Solution-Focused and systemic models. Her counseling interests include working with individuals, couples, and families addressing anxiety, trauma, and relational difficulties. Rebecca is also passionate about working with African American men, women and couples facing difficulties related to intergenerational trauma and pain, anxiety, self-esteem, perfectionism as well as emotional regulation and communication issues in marriages and committed relationships. Rebecca enjoys working with clients who are committed and motivated to learn new healthy ways of healing and growing.
