About Rebecca
Rebecca Davis is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in California with nine years of experience. She works with adults dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem struggles, and depression. She also offers support for issues that often sit under those labels, including abandonment, attachment difficulties, family of origin concerns, and feelings of emptiness.
Rebecca uses clear, practical methods rather than jargon. Sessions focus on what feels most urgent to the client. She helps people name painful feelings like guilt and shame and figure out manageable next steps. Conversations include skills practice and checking how new strategies feel in everyday life.
Her day-to-day approach draws from Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, and Mindfulness Therapy. That means work can include reflecting on personal values, testing unhelpful thoughts, building emotion regulation skills, and practicing focused awareness. Rebecca mixes these methods to address mood, trauma reactions, and relationship patterns.
She often breaks down big problems into small experiments. Clients might try short behavior changes, track thoughts between sessions, or use grounding and breathing practices at tense moments. The emphasis is on clear tools that can be used outside the session to handle stress and low mood.
People who prefer straightforward conversation and practical exercises tend to do well with her. To begin, a prospective client completes a short questionnaire and schedules a first session to talk about goals and next steps.
Therapeutic approaches used and how they work online
Rebecca commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy in her work. CBT focuses on identifying and testing unhelpful thoughts and trying small behavior experiments to change mood and anxiety. DBT provides concrete skills for managing intense emotions, reducing reactivity, and improving distress tolerance.She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy ideas, which center the client's perspective and priorities during sessions. Together these approaches let sessions include talking, skill practice, and planning small steps to try between meetings. Choosing which methods to emphasize is collaborative; the therapist and client decide what fits the client’s needs and goals as they go.
Confirm the exact session formats before booking so you know what is offered. Many people find online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or avoid travel. Online work also lets clients practice skills in contexts closer to their daily life. Rebecca will review how you want to use sessions and suggest an approach that fits your routine and aims.
