About Rebekah
Rebekah Smith is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Maine with four years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship problems, family conflict, trauma and abuse, depression, grief, and related concerns. Rebekah offers straightforward, practical help for everyday problems that affect work, home life, and health.
She focuses on creating a calm setting where people can talk through difficult thoughts and feelings. Sessions tend to be conversational and goal-oriented. Rebekah listens for patterns that cause repeated distress and helps people test small changes that can make daily life more manageable.
Her work draws on evidence-based methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to address unhelpful thinking and increase coping skills. She also uses Attachment-Based and Client-Centered approaches to strengthen relationships and self-understanding. Dialectical Behavior Therapy tools are used when people need strategies for regulating intense emotions.
Rebekah supports people dealing with parenting strain, eating and sleeping problems, anger, low self-esteem, career stress, ADHD, and living with bipolar disorder. She also brings attention to family of origin issues, blended family dynamics, adoption and foster care concerns, and substance-related problems.
Practical steps are emphasized in sessions: defining one or two goals, practicing skills between meetings, and checking progress. To begin, a short questionnaire and a scheduled first session are used to match needs and set a plan.
BHow sessions work
How Rebekah uses therapeutic approaches in online sessions
Rebekah commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in her work. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing behavior changes to reduce distress. ACT helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to actions that match their values.She also uses Attachment-Based and Client-Centered ideas to strengthen relationships and improve emotional understanding. These approaches emphasize listening, reflecting how relationships shape reactions, and building more reliable ways of connecting with others. The therapist and client work together to choose which methods fit best based on goals and what actually happens in session.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Rebekah will discuss options and adapt the plan as progress is reviewed. This collaborative way helps ensure the work matches day-to-day challenges and practical goals.
