About Rebecca
Rebecca Burda is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with nine years of experience supporting people through parenting challenges and related life stressors. She focuses on clear, direct conversation and practical steps parents can use day to day. Rebecca works with parents, young people, and adults facing mood and behavior concerns, anxiety, trauma, ADHD, and related issues.
She brings a straightforward, person-centered approach in sessions. Rebecca aims to be genuine and open while helping clients set realistic goals.
Background and approach
She uses tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness to teach coping skills that fit into busy family routines. Rebecca also has experience using dialectical behavior therapy and eye movement desensitization and reprocessing for people recovering from trauma or intense emotional reactions.
Her background includes work with adoption and foster care matters, blended family issues, caregiver stress, and neurodiversity like autism and intellectual disability. She has supported people with mood disorders, panic and impulse challenges, and family-of-origin concerns. Sessions tend to focus on practical strategies - improving communication, managing overwhelming moments, and building routines that reduce stress.
Rebecca helps parents and caregivers translate therapy ideas into everyday parenting choices. She also addresses self-esteem, guilt, shame, and compassion fatigue for those in caregiving roles. Rebecca practices in Wisconsin and works with clients in English.
She is able to see international clients and offers several online formats for counseling. To begin, people complete a short questionnaire and schedule sessions according to her availability.

Therapeutic approaches for online parenting support
Rebecca uses client-centered work to focus conversations on what matters most to each person, listening first and shaping sessions around individual goals and values. This approach helps parents and caregivers feel heard and involved in decisions about their care.She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which breaks down unhelpful thoughts and teaches practical skills to change behavior. CBT is useful for anxiety, mood problems, and managing stressful family interactions. For people coping with trauma or intense emotional reactions, Rebecca draws on dialectical behavior therapy skills to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and stronger communication techniques.
Choosing an approach is collaborative. Rebecca will talk with clients about their goals, preferences, and how they respond to different techniques, then adapt the plan as therapy progresses. This helps find methods that fit a client's life and parenting demands.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls work well for in-depth sessions and role-playing conversations, phone sessions are handy when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text-based messaging can provide quick check-ins or brief coaching between appointments. These options make it easier to fit consistent support into busy family schedules and changing routines.
