About

Hi there! I’m Rebecca, a creatively driven therapist living in Lake Tahoe and practicing remotely in Massachusetts and California. I strive to create a warm, gentle space where you can feel seen, supported, and encouraged as you work toward your goals. My approach is trauma-informed and strengths-based, blending somatic awareness with thoughtful exploration to help you reconnect with yourself and build meaningful coping skills. My goal is to meet you where you are and walk alongside you as you navigate your path toward healing and growth.

Education & Licensure
MA in Clinical Counseling with a specialization in Dance/Movement Therapy from Lesley University; BA in Drama (Experimental Theatre Wing) from New York University
Treatment Approach
What motivated you to specialize in working with autistic adults?

I'm drawn to working with autistic and neurodivergent clients through both my personal and professional experiences, noticing how often our unique perspectives and strengths are misunderstood or overlooked. I’ve been inspired by the creativity, insight, and authenticity that neurodivergent individuals bring to the world, and I want to create a space where those qualities are truly honored. My goal is to walk alongside you with genuine curiosity and the utmost care, helping you feel seen, supported, and empowered to navigate life in a way that feels authentic and right for you.

How do you bring a strengths-based, affirming approach to your client work?

I focus on your strengths and the unique qualities that make you who you are, rather than centering the challenges you face. I strive to create a space where you feel seen, affirmed, and supported as we explore your resilience and potential. Drawing on my experience within neurodivergent and artist communities, I bring curiosity, compassion, and encouragement to help you uncover tools and strategies that feel authentic and empowering.
