About Rabecca
Rabecca Cole is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Wisconsin with 12 years of experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, grief, relationship and intimacy-related concerns, and LGBT issues. Rabecca also addresses family-related stress and related areas such as communication problems and commitment issues.
She uses approaches that include Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and Mindfulness Therapy. Sessions focus on clear, practical steps and on understanding how patterns from relationships and upbringing affect present feelings. Rabecca emphasizes straightforward conversation and skills people can try between sessions.
Clients often bring concerns about abandonment, attachment wounds, body image, chronic illness, codependency, and sexual expression including BDSM and kink topics. She also works with aging and geriatric issues, divorce and separation, and the emotional effects of long-term health conditions. Rabecca aims to help people sort through what they regret, what they feel ashamed of, and how those feelings shape daily life.
Her style draws on talking through experiences and building concrete strategies, such as CBT exercises or DBT skills, alongside reflective work about relationships. Mindfulness practices are offered as tools for grounding and noticing difficult emotions. The focus is on understandable steps rather than jargon.

How her approaches translate to online sessions
Rabecca uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early and current relationships shape feelings of shame and connection. That work focuses on identifying patterns in relationships and testing new ways of relating in day-to-day life.She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy, which centers the person's experience and priorities in conversation, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Client-centered work supports open discussion, while CBT offers concrete exercises to try between sessions.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work together. She will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences, and adjust the plan as those needs change.
