About Rebecca
Rebecca Holland is a licensed clinical social worker in Illinois with 12 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, anger, and depression. She works with individuals who want clearer coping skills, better self-esteem, or help through life transitions. Her approach is straightforward and practical, aimed at making therapy feel useful from session one.
Rebecca believes clients know their own stories and brings listening and structure to help them name goals.
Background and approach
She uses tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to break stressful patterns. Mindfulness practices are woven in to help people notice feelings without getting swept away. Sessions focus on small, achievable changes.
Clients might learn ways to spot unhelpful thoughts, practice emotion regulation skills, or try short mindful exercises between sessions. Rebecca emphasizes skills that can be used in everyday situations, not just talked about in the office. She has worked with a wide range of concerns including addiction, trauma and grief, parenting stress, mood disorders, and relationship issues.
Rebecca also supports people facing body image struggles, abandonment or attachment wounds, and the fatigue of caregiving. Therapy is collaborative - Rebecca helps set clear goals and checks progress along the way. She offers video, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs.

How Rebecca Uses Evidence-Based Skills Online
Rebecca draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thought patterns and try concrete behavior changes. CBT sessions often include clear steps and exercises to practice between meetings, which can reduce anxiety and mood problems over time.She also incorporates Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques for emotion regulation and distress tolerance. DBT-style skills teach ways to lower intense emotions, improve communication, and cope with urges that can lead to destructive behavior.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Rebecca will work with each person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences and will adjust techniques as progress is made. Together they track what helps and refine the plan over time.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit busy lives. Video is useful for longer therapy work and skill practice, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat supports brief check-ins, and messaging lets people share updates and try short exercises between meetings. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while fitting it around work, caregiving, and other responsibilities.
