About Rebecca

Rebecca Burda is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with nine years of clinical experience. She works with children, adolescents, young adults, and parents and caregivers. She aims to be open and straightforward in sessions and focuses on practical steps you can use at home or school.

Rebecca often helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, mood disorders, and trauma. She also supports those facing parenting challenges, ADHD, anger, low self-esteem, and compassion fatigue. Adoption and foster care concerns are a noted additional focus she addresses alongside other family-related issues.

Her style is person-centered and trauma informed. That means conversations start with what matters most to you, and goals are chosen together. She uses tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, EMDR, and Motivational Interviewing in ways that fit each person’s needs.

Rebecca has experience working with people who have intellectual disability and with those on the autism spectrum. She also brings experience supporting caregivers and people managing disruptive mood symptoms like DMDD. Sessions aim to teach skills you can practice between meetings.

She encourages a genuine relationship in therapy and invites clients to set clear, manageable goals. Rebecca helps clients break problems down into small steps and celebrate progress along the way.

Therapeutic approaches and online options

Rebecca uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try small experiments to change them. CBT is often helpful for anxiety, panic, depression, and everyday stress. She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy when emotion regulation and coping skills are a focus, teaching skills for distress tolerance, regulation, and clearer communication.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to pick methods that fit their goals, needs, and preferences. Goals are set together and techniques are adjusted as progress is made.

The biography does not list which online session formats are used, so confirm current options before booking. Many people find online sessions help fit therapy into busy lives by removing travel time, making scheduling easier, and allowing shorter check-ins when needed. Talk with the therapist or scheduling team about how sessions might best fit your routine and technology comfort level.
