Welcome!
Engaging in counseling can be exciting, relieving and also initially unsettling. Taking the first step to explore how counseling may benefit you is courageous, an act of self-care. I am glad you are here.
I have been working with diverse individuals from a range of communities (cultural, spiritual and geographical) for over 30 years. Traveling with an individual for any part of their life journey is a sacred opportunity. I appreciate that a strong and effective therapeutic relationship must honor this privilege.

On the outside, you manage. You show up. You handle responsibilities.
But inside you feel overwhelmed, anxious, emotionally reactive, or stuck in patterns you don’t fully understand. You might overthink conversations, struggle with mood shifts, avoid difficult situations or rely on old habits just to get through stressful days. You’re not broken. You’re likely doing the best you can with the tools you have. What you may need isn’t more pressure- it’s support, clarity, and space to slow down and understand what’s happening beneath the surface.

My primary therapeutic focus is to help teenagers and adults to develop a stronger sense of self and to develop the coping skills they will need to address issues of anxiety, self esteem and self worth. I use a non-judgmental, trauma informed and holistic approach to help clients develop their ability to self soothe, including using body/movement and grounding techniques. I focus on both personal autonomy and understanding ourselves in relationships, with the goal of moving out of stuck feelings and thoughts to embody a more curious stance of your experiences and the world around you.

Hi, I’m Rebecca. I’m a licensed therapist in New York and California with over a decade of experience supporting adults through times of change—both expected and unexpected.
Life transitions can be exciting, disorienting, painful, or all of the above. Whether you’re starting or ending college or grad school, navigating a career shift, adjusting to postpartum changes, moving through perimenopause, facing retirement, or coping with grief and loss, these moments can bring up questions about identity, purpose, and how to move forward. You don’t have to figure it out alone.

Sometimes it really makes sense to have a confidential setting to talk about overwhelming feelings or difficult circumstances. I graduated from Syracuse University with a masters degree in social work in 2003, so I have over 20 years experience working with many different people dealing with life's challenges. I worked in a day treatment program for 9 years and a mental health clinic for 2 years, before starting my private practice. Every day I bring all I have learned into each session, drawing on my knowledge and experience.
