About Rebecca
Rebecca Smith, MA LMHC, TX LPC, holds licensure in Massachusetts and Texas and has 16 years of clinical experience. She works on stress, anxiety, addictions, grief, depression, coping with life changes, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, sleep problems, anger, self-esteem, bipolar disorder, compassion fatigue, and ADHD. She uses a mix of approaches she describes as eclectic, drawing on methods like CBT, DBT, ACT, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing to help people reach concrete goals.
Rebecca frames therapy as a collaborative process. She listens to each person’s story and identifies strengths that can be applied to current struggles. Sessions focus on practical skills, behavior changes, and steps that people can use between meetings. The tone is direct and task-oriented rather than theoretical.
Her approach blends evidence-informed methods with client-centered principles. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy and mindfulness practices are applied for emotion regulation and distress tolerance. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps clarify values and guide committed action.
Rebecca also uses motivational interviewing to support readiness for change. She describes using solution-focused techniques and brief behavioral strategies when appropriate. The result is a pragmatic mix designed to meet treatment goals efficiently.
She emphasizes measurable progress and practical coping tools. People considering work with her should expect clear goal setting, skill-building exercises, and regular review of outcomes. Language of service is English and international clients are not supported.

How her approaches translate to online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people name their values and commit to small actions that align with them. It supports work on life changes, motivation, and managing difficult feelings by focusing on values-based goals.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and routines. It is practical for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and many day-to-day challenges because it breaks problems into small, testable steps.
Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple awareness and attention practices. These techniques support emotion regulation, stress reduction, and managing cravings or strong urges.
Determining the right mix of methods is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose approaches that fit their goals, preferences, and current circumstances. Adjustment of techniques happens over time based on what helps most.
