About Rebecca

Rebecca Pedersen is a licensed clinical social worker with 11 years of experience. She is based in Utah and focuses on helping people handle stress, anxiety, addiction struggles, and trauma. Rebecca aims to make the first step easier for anyone who decides to reach out.

She uses practical, evidence-informed methods in sessions and often includes EMDR as part of trauma work. Rebecca favors hands-on approaches that move beyond talking and help people process difficult memories and strong emotions.

Background and approach

She also draws on therapies that address patterns in relationships and emotional regulation. Sessions begin with a simple conversation about what brings a person in and what they hope to change. Rebecca works with each person to build a plan that fits their pace and goals.

She encourages straightforward tools for coping, and she helps people practice new ways to respond to stress and cravings. Rebecca pays attention to how past hurts affect current relationships and self-worth. She helps people unpack feelings like guilt, shame, and abandonment, and she supports those facing life transitions such as divorce or midlife questioning.

Post-traumatic stress and recovery from abuse are also areas she addresses. Her style is calm and direct. She aims to create an open space where people can say what they feel without fear of judgment.

Practical steps and steady support are central to her approach as people learn new skills and rebuild confidence.

Online support

Approaches that guide online trauma and stress work

Rebecca often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice difficult thoughts and still move toward values-based action; this approach emphasizes small, practical steps and acceptance rather than fighting every uncomfortable feeling. Attachment-Based Therapy is used to look at how early relationships shape current reactions and communication; it helps people understand patterns that affect self-worth and connection. EMDR is included in her trauma-focused work as a technique to help process distressing memories and reduce their emotional intensity. Finding the right approach is part of the process rather than an upfront requirement. Rebecca will work collaboratively to choose methods that match a person's goals, history, and comfort level, and she adjusts the plan as progress is made. Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which offer practical benefits for busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when more connection is helpful. Phone sessions can fit into a short break or require less bandwidth. Live chat and texting are useful for check-ins, tracking emotions, or brief coaching between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, family, or travel schedules while keeping the focus on steady progress.
