About Rebecca

Rebecca Holland is a licensed clinical social worker in Illinois who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, sleep troubles, and relationship or family concerns. She draws on 12 years of clinical experience to support people facing mood shifts, anger, addiction, or life changes. Rebecca emphasizes practical steps that can fit into busy lives and a supportive presence while people work toward clearer goals.

She believes clients are the experts in their own lives. Sessions focus on building on existing strengths and trying manageable changes. Rebecca uses straightforward tools to reduce symptoms, build coping skills, and address patterns that keep people stuck.

Her work commonly includes strategies from cognitive behavioral therapy to reframe unhelpful thoughts and develop new behaviors. She also uses elements of dialectical behavior therapy to teach emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills. Mindfulness techniques are offered to help with attention, sleep, and stress regulation.

Rebecca helps people tackle practical issues like communication problems, caregiver stress, parenting strain, and difficulties after separation or loss. She also supports those dealing with body image, shame, or isolation as part of broader mood and anxiety concerns. Sleep and rest are included among the concerns she addresses.

Her style is collaborative and down-to-earth. Conversations are focused and goal-oriented, with skills people can try between sessions. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions based on the therapist's availability.

How CBT, DBT, and Mindfulness Help in Online Sessions

Rebecca often uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice automatic thoughts and test whether they are helpful. CBT focuses on small experiments and concrete behavioral changes that can reduce anxiety, panic attacks, and low mood.

She also draws on dialectical behavior therapy skills to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication. DBT-style techniques can be useful for managing intense feelings and improving day-to-day coping.

Mindfulness therapy is offered to help with attention, stress management, and sleep. Simple breathing and attention practices are taught and practiced in-session and as short exercises to use throughout the day.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to match methods to their needs, goals, and preferences, and she may combine techniques as appropriate.

The original profile does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm available session types before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when days are tight. Clients can discuss what will work best for them when they schedule an appointment.
