About Rebecca

Rebecca Morse, LICSW, LCSW, helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, grief, or major life changes. She works with people facing burnout, compassion fatigue, addiction, ADHD challenges, and identity concerns such as LGBT issues. Rebecca writes in a calm, straightforward way and invites people to speak about what feels most difficult right now.

With 15 years of experience in clinical settings, Rebecca focuses on building compassionate self-awareness. She guides people to notice patterns that cause pain and to practice kinder ways of responding to themselves. Sessions emphasize concrete skills and real-life problem solving rather than abstract theory.

Rebecca uses a mix of evidence-informed approaches to match a person’s needs. She draws on cognitive behavioral strategies to shift unhelpful thinking and on acceptance-based methods to support living with hard feelings. Attachment-based ideas help when relationship patterns are part of the struggle.

Her background includes work with people coping with chronic illness, cancer caregiving, end-of-life issues, and losses that follow major transitions. She also addresses practical concerns like sleep trouble, parenting stress, career uncertainty, and communication problems.

In sessions, Rebecca helps people set manageable goals and practice skills between meetings. She emphasizes empathy and realistic progress, not quick fixes. If you want a therapist who focuses on steady, compassionate change, she may be a good fit.

How Rebecca’s approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters most and take small steps toward those values while learning to live with difficult thoughts and feelings. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and when life changes make choices feel unclear. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, which can help with low mood, worry, sleep problems, and motivation. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early and current relationships shape responses to stress and loss, and it can be helpful when relationship patterns or abandonment worries are part of the problem.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Rebecca will talk with the person about goals, try different strategies, and adjust the plan based on what helps most. The aim is to pick tools that fit the person’s life and priorities rather than forcing one method.

The original biography does not list specific online formats, so confirm session options before booking. In general, online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when that suits a workday. It can also let a person choose quieter surroundings or avoid being on camera when that is preferable. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT, CBT, and attachment-focused work to an online setting to practice skills and discuss sensitive topics, but confirm exact formats and scheduling details with the therapist before you book.
