Rebecca Thierfelder, LCSW

Rebecca Thierfelder is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) who helps people coping with stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma, low self-esteem, and depression. She writes in a direct, warm way and aims to move people past emotional stuck points toward clearer choices and better day-to-day functioning.

Rebecca uses a blend of practical talk, gentle challenge, and well-placed humor to promote self-reflection. Sessions focus on understanding what gets in the way, testing new behaviors, and strengthening motivation to change. She has long experience in community mental health settings that informs how she supports people through life transitions and ongoing struggles.

Her work includes helping people manage chronic medical issues, caregiver strain, grief around aging, and the emotional aftermath of trauma. She also addresses patterns such as codependency, avoidance, dissociation, and difficulties with communication or commitment.

Rebecca draws on a range of evidence-based therapeutic techniques and adapts her style to match each person’s values and goals. She offers individual and group-based approaches learned over years of clinical practice.

Practical access is part of her approach. She offers evening and some weekend live sessions, plus messaging between sessions. People who want to begin are guided through a short matching questionnaire and scheduling process to find a time that fits their life.

How Rebecca uses evidence-based techniques online

Rebecca has worked with several evidence-based therapeutic techniques that translate well to remote work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors; it is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress-related patterns. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values and take small committed actions toward a life they find meaningful, which can help with chronic illness and low mood.

Choosing the right method is a collaborative process. Rebecca will discuss options, try approaches that match a person’s goals, and adjust the plan over time based on what is helpful. The emphasis is on practical skills and building a life that reflects each person’s values.

This profile does not specify which live session formats are currently offered, so confirm options before booking. When arranged, online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, allow evening or weekend appointments, reduce travel time, and let people use messaging between live meetings for brief check-ins and planning. These practical benefits can help people keep momentum between sessions and apply new skills in everyday life.
