Rebekah Roberts

My communication style

I utilize open communication to create a supportive, non-judgmental environment. I practice active listening and will give you opportunities to reflect on your experiences with you as an empathetic working partner. I am supportive and direct when needed. I utilize stories and analogies to help you. I use the word "organism" meaning the whole you.

My journey to mental healthcare

My journey to becoming a mental health therapist was with my own healing. I find people are more resilience than they think and I love help others find their strength through life. Working with trauma survivors showed me the power of therapy in healing. I’m driven by the belief that everyone has the capacity for growth, healing, and lasting change.

My goals for you

I see therapy as a working partnership. Together, we’ll set goals that matter to you. We will review your goals and we’ll adapt your plan to stay meaningful and supportive as you move toward where you want to be. I assign homework to assist you in your journey, such as self-regulation tools, cognitive tools, and others. You healing is the priority.

Our first session

Your first session is a chance for us to get to know each other and discuss what brings you to therapy. Review goals if you have any you would like to focus on. I interduce you to the modalities, Somatic Experiencing and the Polyvagal Theory, and my healing philosophy I utilizing in therapy. I believe we need to work with the whole person.
