About Rebecca
Rebecca Zabinski is a licensed professional clinical counselor in Minnesota with thirteen years of experience. She counsels people across a wide age range and helps them find practical ways to manage strong emotions and stressful life events. Her work often focuses on concerns such as anger, anxiety, depression, grief, and parenting strain.
Rebecca uses straightforward language and a warm manner to make hard conversations easier to start. Her background includes supporting people who have faced trauma, foster care or adoption challenges, and a variety of neurodiversity-related needs such as high functioning autism and ADHD.
Background and approach
She also brings experience helping with chronic illness, caregiving stress, and substance-related concerns. That variety informs a flexible approach rather than a one-size-fits-all method. Sessions are collaborative.
Rebecca listens for what matters most and then helps people test small, doable changes. She uses tools from cognitive behavioral therapy to shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, and draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how relationships shape feelings. Mindfulness practices and motivational interviewing are added when they fit the person and the goals.
Rebecca describes her style as warm and interactive. She adapts language and activities to the person’s age and needs, and she aims to create a respectful atmosphere where people can practice new skills. Many clients work on anger management, communication habits, sleep routines, and coping with life transitions.
Getting started begins with a short matching questionnaire and scheduling. Rebecca helps set clear, achievable steps so progress feels visible and steady.

Therapeutic approaches you can use online
Rebecca uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help identify and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors, which can reduce worry, improve sleep, and give concrete steps for managing anger. She also draws on attachment-based therapy to look at how relationships and early experiences shape emotional responses and communication habits. Mindfulness techniques are used to build present-focused attention and calm in moments of high stress.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Rebecca will listen to your goals and try methods that fit your preferences and lifestyle. Together you can test what helps most and adjust the plan as you see progress.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video is useful for things like role-play and reading nonverbal cues, while phone sessions require less bandwidth and can fit into a work break. Live chat and text messaging let people check in between sessions or use shorter, focused exchanges when that works better.
