About Rebecca
Rebecca Holland is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, anger, depression, and parenting challenges. She brings 12 years of professional experience and a practical, down-to-earth approach. Rebecca encourages people to use their own strengths while working through difficult moments.
She believes the client is the expert on their life and that therapy is a collaborative effort. Sessions focus on real skills and small, doable steps.
Background and approach
Rebecca aims to help people manage emotions, improve communication, and build routines that support daily functioning. Her work often combines clear, goal-focused techniques with mindful awareness. That mix helps with mood problems, panic, trauma responses, and struggles with addiction or sleep.
Rebecca also addresses concerns such as caregiver stress, attachment worries, postpartum depression, and body image issues. Rebecca uses methods drawn from cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, and mindfulness practices. She explains tools simply and practices them together with each person so techniques feel useful outside of sessions.
Progress is tracked through practical changes rather than abstract measures. Based in Illinois, Rebecca holds an LCSW, which stands for Licensed Clinical Social Worker. She offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging to fit different schedules and needs.

How Rebecca’s approaches work online
Rebecca draws from cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy to help people change unhelpful patterns and manage strong emotions. CBT focuses on identifying thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and replacing them with more helpful options; it often helps with anxiety, depression, panic, and sleep issues. DBT teaches skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and better communication, which can be useful for anger, relationship stress, and mood swings.She also incorporates mindfulness practices to help people notice body sensations and thoughts without getting overwhelmed. Mindfulness can reduce rumination, improve focus, and make other skills easier to use. Choosing which methods to use is a joint process; the therapist will talk about goals and preferences and try different tools until something fits the person’s life and needs.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when a deeper check-in is needed. Phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging let people send updates, practice skills between appointments, or fit brief sessions into a busy day. These formats can make regular work on goals easier to maintain alongside parenting and other responsibilities.
