About Rebecca

LCSW in Texas with seven years of experience, Rebecca Phillips focuses on depression, anxiety, trauma, and LGBT-related concerns. Rebecca helps people manage mood disorders, addiction, eating struggles, and stress tied to life changes. She works with adults across the lifespan and uses a mix of therapeutic methods in session.

Rebecca aims to reduce intrusive thoughts and strong negative self-talk. She helps people notice unhelpful patterns and try concrete strategies to change them. Sessions involve talking through recent problems and practicing skills that can be used between meetings.

Her approach combines behavioral tools and emotion-focused methods. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify thinking patterns and adjust behaviors. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills are used for emotional regulation and distress tolerance when feelings feel overwhelming.

Attachment-Based Therapy informs work on relationship patterns and closeness issues. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) supports learning how to live in line with personal values despite difficult thoughts or feelings. Client-Centered Therapy means collaborators shape goals together and pace is set by the person in therapy.

Rebecca has experience supporting people with complex or overlapping concerns, such as co-occurring mental health and substance issues, chronic health problems, caregiver stress, and challenges tied to aging. She also addresses areas like body image, abandonment, and kink-friendly conversations when relevant to a person’s goals.

How her approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and commit to actions aligned with their values. Online sessions can include values clarification and behavioral experiments to try between meetings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying thinking patterns and testing new behaviors. In virtual sessions, the therapist and client review examples from daily life and practice skills such as thought records and behavioral activation. Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to select methods that match the client's goals, needs, and preferences. That selection can be adjusted over time based on what helps most. Confirm the session formats before booking since the biography does not list specific options. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and remove the need to travel to an office. Ask about the available session types when you complete the initial matching questionnaire.
