Online Therapy for Grieving & Stressed-Out Women
in St. Louis, MO

I Help Women Find 
Healing, Meaning & Fulfillment, 
After Their Life's Been Turned Upside Down With Grief, Loss, and Change.

If you're anything like the women I work with, you're smart and successful; kind, thoughtful, and introspective. You've always done everything right, and you're the one your friends trust and turn to for help and support.

But in this world that guarantees us nothing, your world has just been upended, by a death (recent or anticipated), a health diagnosis (your own or a loved one's), a crumbling marriage, a shattered dream, or the searing reality that life is often just tough, really tough.

Your life is no longer what you thought it was, no longer what you thought it'd be. There's a sense of disorientation; you're feeling lost amid the existential groundlessness of things falling apart.​​ You're typically so sure of yourself, but now you've lost your sense of self.

None of your best efforts are helping much, and you're left not knowing what to do ... and you always know what to do. No matter how much you've got going for you – and you've got a lot – this is all just feeling like too much. You've figured everything else out that's ever come your way, but this is getting the best of you. 
You've been in therapy before, and so it feels natural to reach out again now. And so now you're here – literally here, on my website (hi!) – and I'm so glad you are. 

​You've come to the right place, because there is absolutely reason for hope. No matter what life's throwing at you, you can have what you're wanting; you can rediscover yourself, find meaning in your life now, and move forward with a sense of fulfillment. 

Even though you didn't ask for any of this, this is the space – the invitation – to do the deep and expansive work of a lifetime. To bravely (radically!) explore, from all of this wreckage, your evolving sense of self, the meaning of it all, and your essential desire to live from a place of alignment.

​These times of grief can do that to us, if we allow it.

And if you're in, I'm in.
And, so, to you – the sensitive, intuitive, wise woman facing the profound stress of grief, loss, and change –  I extend a warm welcome. My work is devoted to helping support women like you, women who have come so far and yet whose lives have just been turned upside down.

The women I work with tell me they appreciate my down-to-earth, engaging style where we do deeply meaningful work together without any formality or stuffiness. I keep my caseload small so we have the space to create what you uniquely need in order to move toward rediscovering yourself, reconnecting with your life, and moving forward with clarity and purpose, meaning and joy.

​We're in this together. Reach out and let's get started!

Meet Rebecca

I'm Rebecca (she/her). I'm hyper-organized and punctual, and so I apparently then seem like I've got all my adulting shit together. Don't let that fool you. 
 
My internal landscape can be just as messy as anyone's (we're all just people here, after all), but through my own experiences in therapy, and because of my training and experience as a therapist, I generally know how to tend to it well with gentle care and compassion. 
 
Even so, that doesn't change the fact that I don't like feeling any of the big, challenging, uncomfortable emotions any more than any of my clients do. 
 
Because I get it; this work – of being human, of being a human in therapy – is hard. I also believe it to be absolutely worthwhile.

My work is informed by progressive and feminist values.

​​These values are why I come to therapy from a Social Work background.
​We Social Workers are a rowdy bunch who refuse to accept the status quo.

My Specialties

​​Grief: Death & Dying


When someone you love is dying or has died, there is no shortage of bullshit people will say to you. You keep trying to give everyone the benefit of the doubt but you've never needed people more, and, yet, here you are feeling all alone.

You've grieved before, but honestly it's never been anything like this. This grief, now, is such an utterly lonely, overwhelming, and exhausting place to be. 

You so want a space where you don't have to hide your pain with shitty performative small talk about it all.

You desperately want support with all these waves of overwhelming feelings – deep sadness, anger, guilt, fear, confusion, even relief (yes, relief. If that's you, you're not alone).

​You're longing to figure out how to move forward, what the hell to do now.

​You're in the right place; I'm here to help.

​Grief: Illness & Health Conditions


 A health diagnosis – whether your own or a loved one's; whether chronic, treatable, terminal, or unknown – brings so many unwanted things.

It also brings profound grief, with the loss that of our life no longer looks or feels like how we thought it would.

This may be a private experience for you, all while trying to keep up a good face with the rest of the world that all remains well. 
 
But make no mistake, even with the support of others, this is just freaking hard. The pitying looks, the awkward encounters, the loaded ever-present “how are you?” question that never seems to want an actual honest answer. (They mean well. You hope.)

You're longing to figure out how to support yourself amid all of this.

You're in the right place; I'm here to help.

 ​Stress: Relationship Dissatisfaction & Overwhelm with Big Change

You're stressed out and overwhelmed. You've gotten so far in life because of the high standards you've always set for yourself.

And, yet ...

You're feeling the heavy weight of dissatisfaction within your marriage.

Or you're feeling buried under the stress of the unexpected challenges of even the most wonderful, desired changes in your life  – the ones you've dreamed of, the ones that are now here.

You worry that your expectations are just too high. That you're wanting too much. That you're really the problem here. 

You're yearning to figure out what to do now. How to find those missing pieces of happiness and contentment. You didn't expect it to be so hard or tricky.

You're in the right place; I'm here to help.

I Want Therapy To Be

Convenient

  Practical matters shouldn’t be an obstacle to getting help, so I offer: online therapy  you can easily fit getting help into your schedule; 24/7 online scheduling; and a secure patient portal easily complete intake paperwork.

Helpful

My work with clients is engaging and collaborative, so you can get the most out of our time together. By keeping my caseload small, we have the space to create what you uniquely need in our work together. 

Authentic

My clients and I have zero interest in a stuffy or formal relationship in therapy. We care about building a real relationship together that can fully support the deeply meaningful work we do together.

Useful Information

Online Therapy

All of my sessions are held virtually. My clients and I (perhaps surprisingly?) have both come to prefer online therapy, so much so it's what I now offer exclusively. If you have doubts, I totally get it. I did too, once. ​Click below to learn why I was so wrong.

Rates

My rate reflects my commitment to provide sustainably excellent clinical care to each of my clients. I limit the number of clients I see so that we can do our best work together. Click below to learn more about your investment and my commitment to our work together.

Scheduling

​​I offer daytime appointments, Monday through Thursday. Sessions are 45-50 minutes and are initially scheduled either weekly or every-other week. My clients and I often end up working together long-term, eventually transitioning to monthly appointments as a valuable way to continue this meaningful work.

Working Together

​Both my clients and I deeply prioritize cultivating a strong and authentic working relationship with one another. I intentionally limit the number of clients I work with so that we can engage in truly individualized care. My commitment to maintaining this smaller-than-typical caseload means we can truly work together as a team to create a healing space that is uniquely yours.
