About Rebecca

Rebecca Phillips is a licensed marriage and family therapist with 35 years of experience. She helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, and money and financial issues. Rebecca emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental space so clients can talk honestly about their lives.

She meets people where they are and treats them as the experts on their own stories. Sessions focus on practical steps and clearer thinking so clients can make decisions that fit their values. Rebecca also offers coaching for career transitions and professional challenges.

Her approach blends client-centered work with tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy. She adds elements of existential and mindfulness therapy to help people clarify purpose and manage intense emotions. Together these methods support both short-term coping and longer-term change.

Rebecca draws on decades of practice to tailor each session to the person in front of her. She listens for patterns from family of origin, work stress, grief, and codependency that shape current struggles. Practical goal-setting and skill practice are common parts of the work.

Rebecca is licensed in Texas and Arizona as an LMFT - Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. She offers care in English and works with people on concerns such as gender dysphoria, polyamory and non-monogamous relationships, parenting, midlife questions, and workplace issues.

Approaches that translate to online care

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and supporting your choices. It helps when someone needs a respectful space to sort feelings and decide next steps. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at unhelpful thinking and teaches practical skills to change patterns that feed anxiety or depression. Dialectical behavior therapy, DBT, adds clear strategies for handling intense emotions and improving relationships.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Rebecca will collaborate with each person to identify what feels most useful, adjusting methods as goals and needs evolve. Clients take part in deciding whether to emphasize skills practice, values work, or reflective conversations.

Session formats are not listed on the biography, so please confirm current online options before booking. Many people find online sessions helpful for fitting therapy into a busy week, keeping regular check-ins during a life transition, or working on skills between work and family responsibilities. Phone or video can make sessions shorter or easier to fit into a lunch break, and text or email check-ins can support practice work if those formats are available. Ask about the specific session types offered when you schedule.
