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 a world that guarantees nothing, your world has just been turned upside down.Your life is no longer what you thought it was, no longer what you thought it'd be. 

A death (recent or anticipated) has shattered everything; a diagnosis (your own or a loved one's) has changed everything; utter loneliness  in your marriage (though, somehow, bafflingly, only on your side) has wrecked everything. 

You're grieving, but it's nothing like any grief you've ever known. You're left not knowing what to do ... and you always know what to do. What you do know is that none of your best efforts are helping you right now amid the existential groundlessness of a life that's fallen apart.

Life is feeling hard and so full of things outside of your control. It's a lot. And it sucks.
​​You're typically so sure of yourself, but now you've lost your sense of self. It's all getting in the way of living in ways that are important to you. You aren't fully being the kind of person you want to be, definitely not for yourself and sometimes not even for others. You're left feeling disconnected from yourself and from your life.

And 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, 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 -- to rediscover yourself, to find meaning in your life now, and to move forward with a sense of fulfillment. You can have the clarity, joy, and purpose that you deeply desire. You can be the woman you want to be, for others AND for yourself. 

​I want all of that for you, too. And I can help.
You know you've gotten a lot out of therapy previously, but you sense that you want something more out of therapy this time. You're hoping for a space for yourself that can deeply support you over time; no quick fixes or overly simplistic coping strategies here. After all, these relentless waves of hard feelings have utterly cracked you open. And so you're yearning for the space to do the deep and expansive work of a lifetime.

These times of grief can do that to us, if we allow it. And if you're in, I'm in.

The women I work with tell me they appreciate my down-to-earth, engaging style where we do deeply meaningful, often long-term, work together without any formality or stuffiness. I keep my caseload small so we have the space to create what you uniquely need in your search for healing, meaning, and fulfillment. We're in this together.

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.

Grief is such a lonely, confusing, and exhausting place to be. You don’t know who you are now or what your life is anymore moving forward.

You so want to share how you actually feel, and not have to do some shitty performative small talk about it all.

You want to figure out how to manage these waves of overwhelming feelings – deep sadness, anger, guilt, fear, and sometimes even relief (yes, relief. If that's you, you're not alone).

​You want to figure out something for your life moving forward, even if you have no idea what that is yet.

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

​Grief: Illness & Health Conditions


 Along with all the totally unwanted things it brings, a health diagnosis – whether your own or a loved one's; whether chronic, treatable, terminal, or unknown – also brings grief. We grieve because now our life doesn't look or feel 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 in your life. Those efforts, while completely understandable, are also exhausting, on top of the exhaustion of all the ways your life has been upended.
 
But make no mistake, even with the support of others, this is just damn hard. The pitying looks, the awkward encounters, the loaded ever-present “how are you?” question that never seems to want an honest answer. They mean well. You hope.

You want to figure out how to support yourself and how to keep moving forward.

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. But you find yourself with something missing: 
​happiness, fulfillment, contentment. 

You're feeling the heavy weight of dissatisfaction within your marriage. Or you're feeling buried under the stress and challenges of even the most wonderful! exciting! positive! 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 want to figure out how to find those missing pieces for yourself. You're ready to figure out how to get that elusive 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.

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.

Online scheduling is available for current/active clients. ​(Please note: click here to reach out for a phone or email consultation before scheduling an initial appointment!)

​My clients and I tend to work with each other long-term, with them eventually transitioning to monthly appointments as these regular check-ins are a valuable way to keep supporting themselves and their well-being.

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. I commit to maintaining a smaller-than-typical caseload so we can truly work together as a team to create a healing space that is uniquely yours.
