Meet REBEKAH
As a licensed therapist of ten years, I specialize in helping adults navigate the mental and emotional challenges that come with major life transitions, anxiety and depression, ADHD, grief, breakups, and relationship issues. I am passionate about guiding clients who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or uncertain about how to move forward toward a more grounded, empowered, and meaningful life.
I hold Bachelors of Arts in Psychology and American Sign Language from the University of Rochester, and a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Johns Hopkins University. My clinical background includes working in an outpatient clinic at a Johns Hopkins hospital, a group practice, and now, my own private therapy practice based in New York City.
In my work with adults (18+), I use an integrative, individualized approach to therapy that is primarily rooted in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT). ACT is a therapeutic modality that goes beyond just trying to help people reduce symptoms, and instead offers a model called psychological flexibility that promotes an alternative, more values-aligned approach to life. I have extensive training in ACT, and even had the opportunity to be trained by the founder of it in person. Because I do not believe therapy is one-size-fits-all, I bring in complementary tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), Person-Centered Therapy, somatic-based strategies, and executive functioning.
Clients and colleagues often describe me as relatable, warm, compassionate, and real. I strive to create a therapeutic space that’s relational, collaborative, action-oriented, and emotionally validating. I aim to ensure you feel seen, supported, and gently challenged. Humor, when welcome, is also a part of how I connect; sometimes laughter really is a powerful form of healing.
I proudly work with adults of all backgrounds, identities, and lived experiences, and am committed to culturally responsive and inclusive care. I continuously engage in learning around how personal and cultural identity shapes mental health, relationships, and the context of life each client functions in.
Curiosity is one of my core values, both as a person and as a therapist. I bring this into the therapy room by exploring your inner and outer world with care and openness. I also invite creative tools when helpful, such as music, film, literature, or visual art, to help you express what may feel difficult to say out loud.
My mission is to help you define what “better” looks like on YOUR terms, and to guide you in building a life that feels more connected, manageable, and meaningful. Much of this work centers on improving your relationship with yourself and your internal experiences, as well as with the people and world around you.
Outside the therapy room, I enjoy dancing, listening to music, working out, trying new restaurants, exploring NYC, going on walks with my dog, and spending time with the people who matter most to me. These parts of my life often inspire metaphors and insights that I use in therapy, helping make the inner work more relatable and real.
