Rebecca Heald

Rebecca Heald is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Florida who focuses on helping people manage anger, stress, anxiety, and life changes. She meets people where they are and works with clear, practical steps. Rebecca has 11 years of professional experience and a long history of supporting young people and their families during transitions.

Rebecca has worked with teens and parents across many common challenges. She addresses academic motivation, mood concerns such as depression and bipolar symptoms, sleep problems, grief, and difficulties with relationships and intimacy. She also helps with ADHD, career decisions, and issues around sexuality and LGBT concerns.

Her approach is goal-oriented and collaborative. Rebecca helps clients pick a focus, set achievable goals, and build step-by-step plans to reach them. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Trauma-Focused Therapy as tools to match each person’s needs.

Sessions emphasize practical strategies you can use between meetings. That can include behavior-focused exercises, mindfulness practices, or short skills coaching to handle impulsivity, guilt, shame, or communication problems. The aim is to reduce reactive responses and build better coping skills over time.

Rebecca’s background includes more than a decade of clinical work with youth and families. She outlines goals with clients and adjusts methods as progress is made. Prospective clients should confirm current session formats before booking.

How Rebecca’s approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that reflect their values. It’s useful for anger, anxiety, and life-purpose questions by focusing on meaningful behavior change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy breaks down thoughts, feelings, and behaviors to create specific, testable steps to change patterns like impulsivity or negative thinking.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Rebecca will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, preferences, and day-to-day life. That choice can shift as progress is made, with check-ins to see what is helping and what needs adjustment.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm available options before booking. Online therapy can make scheduling easier and help sessions fit into busy days. It can also allow shorter check-ins, reduce travel time, and make it simpler to practice skills between meetings. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT and CBT tools to an online setting so clients can try exercises, homework, and mindfulness practices between sessions.
