Rebecca Calabrese, LPCC — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Rebecca!

I create a supportive and nonjudgmental space where clients feel empowered to explore their thoughts, emotions, and challenges. My approach focuses on fostering self-awareness, resilience, and personal growth to help you achieve your goals and navigate life's complexities.

My focus

I primarily work with teenagers and adults, supporting them through depression, bipolar disorder, anxiety, eating disorders, PTSD, ADHD, relationship concerns, and workplace conflicts. My goal is to provide a safe and collaborative space for you to explore your experiences and work toward healing and personal growth.

My approach

I create a compassionate space where clients feel empowered to share and grow. I incorporate cognitive behavioral therapy to help identify and reframe unhelpful thought patterns and solution-focused therapy to guide you toward practical resolutions. This blend allows me to tailor my approach to meet your unique needs and goals.

My communication style

I create a calm, grounded, and empathetic environment where you feel genuinely cared for and supported. Clients share that they feel safe opening up with me. My approach balances compassion with accountability, encouraging you to face challenges and grow through discomfort while fully supported.

My journey to mental healthcare

Growing up with my own mental health concerns, I didn't have the language to describe what I was experiencing until much later. This inspired me to pursue a career in mental health, where I could use my personal understanding to support others on their journeys. Witnessing a person's growth and resilience keeps me connected to this work.

My goals for you

I approach goal setting collaboratively, working closely with you to establish SMART goals—those that are specific, manageable, attainable, realistic, and timely. My focus is always on what is most important to you, ensuring that your goals align with your values and aspirations.

Our first session

You can expect a focus on understanding your unique experiences without rushing to conclusions or solutions. I take time to genuinely listen and get to know you, while also building rapport and ensuring I'm a good fit for your needs. My goal is for you to leave feeling heard, understood, and hopeful about the path forward.
