About Rebecca

Rebecca Phillips is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing depression, anxiety, trauma, addiction issues, and struggles around codependency. She aims to help clients regain a sense of confidence and enjoyment in life. Her tone is straightforward and supportive, focused on practical steps toward feeling better.

She creates a calm space where people can name painful thoughts and memories without judgment. Sessions focus on honest conversation and concrete tools to manage symptoms. Rebecca encourages small, sustainable changes that build toward larger goals.

Her approach draws from several well-known methods including cognitive behavior strategies and attachment-focused work. She also uses skills from acceptance-oriented and dialectical approaches to help people tolerate strong emotions and make values-driven choices. Those methods guide how she structures sessions and homework between meetings.

Rebecca has seven years of clinical experience and holds a Licensed Clinical Social Worker credential, LCSW. She practices in Texas and works with adult clients concerned about mood disorders, self-harm risk factors such as addictive behaviors, identity questions, and caregiving stress.

Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and costs vary with location and therapist availability. Prospective clients begin by selecting the Start Therapy button, completing a short matching questionnaire, and scheduling according to Rebecca's availability.

How Rebecca’s Approaches Translate to Online Therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on clarifying what matters to the client and building small actions that match those values while learning to live with difficult thoughts. This can help with depression, anxiety, and codependency by shifting attention toward meaningful steps. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how past relationships shape current patterns. It helps people understand why they repeat certain emotional responses and learn new ways of relating to themselves and others. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes the client’s perspective and uses empathic listening to help people feel heard and make their own changes.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Rebecca treats this as a collaboration and will talk with each person about what feels most useful. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan based on how a client responds and what their goals are.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the current session options before booking so you know which formats are available. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Therapists can assign exercises to practice between meetings and review progress remotely, which helps therapy remain practical and tied to everyday life.
