About Rebecca
Rebecca Heald is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Florida with 11 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on concerns such as anxiety, depression, anger, grief, and stress. Rebecca also helps people manage life changes, relationship and communication problems, parenting strain, and issues around sexuality and self-esteem.
She draws on several practical approaches. Rebecca uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try different, value-driven behaviors. Mindfulness techniques are offered to strengthen attention and emotional regulation. Solution-Focused work is used to set small, measurable goals and track progress.
Rebecca frames therapy as step-by-step work. She and the client identify target areas, set goals, and then build concrete strategies to reach those goals. For people dealing with trauma or abuse histories, she integrates Trauma-Focused methods aimed at safety and stabilization before moving into longer term work.
Sessions emphasize practical skills you can use between meetings. Rebecca addresses things like impulsivity, sleep disruption, and managing overwhelming frustration in day-to-day situations. She also helps people sort through guilt, shame, forgiveness, and questions about life purpose.
Her background includes long experience working with youth and families in earlier roles, but her current practice description focuses on helping adults with the concerns listed. Sessions are conducted in English and Rebecca does not accept international clients.
How Rebecca uses ACT, CBT and mindfulness in online work
Rebecca commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people clarify what matters to them and take small steps toward those values despite difficult feelings. ACT focuses on noticing thoughts and choosing actions that align with personal priorities.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and test out new behaviors. CBT is practical and often includes short exercises to do between sessions. Mindfulness Therapy is offered to build attention and reduce reactivity, which can help with anger, anxiety, and sleep problems.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Rebecca will discuss your goals and preferences and recommend a plan that blends these methods. That plan can change as progress is made, and decisions are made together.
The biography does not list specific remote session formats, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a workday, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT, CBT, and mindfulness exercises to an online setting so skills are practiced between sessions and applied to real-life moments.
