Rebecca Pihl, LPCC — Therapist in North Dakota

Hi there, I'm Rebecca!

I'm glad you're here. Deciding to make changes in your life is hard, and I want to help you meet your goals for your ideal life. I work alongside you, not as someone who knows you better than you know yourself. I specialize in depression, anxiety, mood disorders, self-harm, and life transitions.

My focus

Life can be difficult. I'm here to help you with that. I support you and your goals and your path. I will not pretend to know you better than you. I'm here to be the therapy expert, and you're here to be the expert on you. Together, we can find your way to your goals.

My approach

I tailor my approach to each individual. I utilize CBT to help people challenge their thoughts, and all of my interventions are trauma-informed. I prefer to help clients process through what's going on rather than just manage symptoms, because I believe my job is to work myself out of a job.

My communication style

I believe direct, honest communication is essential for therapy to work. I will tell you what I see and never lie to you. I utilize humor often, but never at your expense. I encourage all of my clients to tell me if I'm wrong or if I offend you in any way.

My journey to mental healthcare

I've wanted to be a therapist since I was young. I was always the person people talked to, and I watched friends struggle to even talk to their parents for fear of stigma. I deal with depression and anxiety myself and attend therapy, so I know what it's like to be on the other side.

My goals for you

I will work with you to figure out what will work best for you. I will help identify barriers in your way, and we will figure out how to get over those together.

Our first session

The first session is the time for us to get to know each other and ask questions to ensure I'm the right counselor for you. I will ask about your past and current symptoms, medical history, and childhood to get an idea of what's going on. We'll work together to identify your goals.
