About Rebecca

Rebecca Thierfelder is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Wisconsin with 11 years of experience in mental health. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, and depression. Rebecca is direct but respectful in sessions and uses straightforward conversation to move past stuck points.

She has long experience in community mental health settings and has worked with a wide range of concerns. That background means she often draws on individual and group strategies to help people manage life changes, motivation, and confidence. Sessions tend to focus on practical steps people can try between meetings.

Rebecca describes a style that combines challenge with validation. She mixes humor and clear feedback to encourage self-reflection and forward movement. The goal in meetings is to identify patterns that get in the way and test different ways of responding.

Her work also addresses a number of additional issues such as abandonment concerns, caregiver stress, chronic pain and illness, codependency, communication problems, and dissociation. Rebecca pays attention to how multiple issues overlap and affect daily functioning.

She offers evening and some weekend live sessions and provides messaging for in-between contact. Before booking, clients should confirm the current session options and scheduling details through the service's matching process.

BHow sessions work

Therapeutic approaches and online sessions

Rebecca uses techniques drawn from evidence-based therapies tailored to practical problems. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety and depression symptoms. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify values and commit to small actions that align with those values even when feelings are difficult.

Choosing the right approach is collaborative. Rebecca will talk with each person about their goals and try methods that fit those goals. She adjusts methods over time based on what is working and what is not, so clients and therapist decide together on next steps.

The biography notes that she provides live sessions and messaging as part of her practice, but readers should confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, allow evening or weekend meeting times, and let people check in between sessions with messages. Phone or video can be chosen for different practical reasons such as having a shorter check-in, conserving bandwidth, or keeping camera use optional.
