About Rebecca
Rebecca Levenson-Smith is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor in Maryland with 11 years of experience. She began her career teaching high school students with emotional and behavioral disorders and later moved into community mental health. She brings that background into sessions with adults who are trying to manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship strains, trauma, and life changes.
Her work is direct and practical. She helps people talk through what is most pressing and develop concrete ways to cope. She draws on approaches such as cognitive behavioral techniques, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, attachment-focused ideas, and emotion-focused work. Mindfulness and client-centered methods also appear in sessions when they fit the concern.
Rebecca has experience across settings including school-based, in-home, office, and telehealth work. That variety informs how she structures meetings to match everyday life and obligations. She has worked with people dealing with addictions, mood disorders, post-traumatic stress, social anxiety, caregiver stress, isolation, and questions about life purpose.
In sessions she encourages gaining practical insight and learning new ways to manage symptoms. Conversations tend to focus on identifying goals, finding small changes that make a difference, and building skills for common stressors. She collaborates with clients to pick methods that align with their needs and preferences.
Sessions are conducted in English and follow the clinical approaches Rebecca uses. People interested in starting are invited to review the online therapy options and complete the short matching questionnaire to schedule a first meeting.
How Rebecca uses therapeutic approaches in online sessions
Rebecca commonly draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy in her work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then taking small actions that align with a person’s values. It can help with anxiety, depression, and uncertainty about life direction. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in close relationships and how early experiences shape trust and closeness. It can be useful for relationship struggles, attachment issues, and caregiver stress.Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. She will talk with the client about their goals and preferences and try methods that match those needs. Sessions can shift over time as priorities change, with an emphasis on practical strategies and incremental steps rather than one fixed method.
