About Rebecca

Rebecca Heald is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Florida with 11 years of counseling experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, and problems with self-esteem. Rebecca also supports clients with relationship and family concerns, grief, ADHD, sleep issues, anger, career questions, and matters related to sexuality and identity.

She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) alongside Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and mindfulness-based techniques. Sessions focus on identifying specific problems, setting clear goals, and trying concrete strategies to change thoughts and behaviors that get in the way. Rebecca also uses solution-focused techniques and trauma-focused methods when recovery from difficult experiences is central.

Her approach breaks things into steps. First she and the client name where the stress or difficulty shows up. Then they pick achievable goals and make a plan with small, practical tasks to try between sessions. Rebecca tracks progress and adjusts steps that aren’t working.

Rebecca draws on over a decade of practice to guide those steps and to teach skills such as thought monitoring, behavioral experiments, grounding exercises, and values-based action. She explains techniques in clear language and shows how to apply them to everyday routines.

People who want straightforward, problem-focused work will find a session style that emphasizes skill building and measurable change. To begin, clients follow the site’s intake flow and complete a short questionnaire before scheduling a first appointment.

Practical approaches for online sessions

Rebecca commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and test unhelpful thoughts and habits. CBT involves identifying specific thoughts, trying short behavioral experiments, and practicing new responses to reduce anxiety, low mood, or impulsive reactions. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is also used to clarify values and build willingness to act on them, which can help with motivation, life changes, and persistent worry. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and grounding practices to reduce reactivity and improve focus.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will discuss options with each client and choose methods based on the person’s goals, daily routines, and what they prefer to try. That collaborative decision guides how sessions proceed and which skills are emphasized.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into work, school, or caregiving schedules. They also allow brief check-ins when a full in-person visit would be difficult, and they let clients try exercises at home between meetings. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT, ACT, and mindfulness exercises to these formats so practical skill-building can continue between sessions.
