About Rebecca

Rebecca Pedersen is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with 11 years of experience. She practices in Utah and focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, and low self-esteem. Rebecca speaks plainly with clients and encourages small steps forward when life feels overwhelming.

Her approach centers on attachment-based ideas alongside trauma-focused work. She uses treatments such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and trauma-focused methods to address painful memories and difficult emotions.

Background and approach

Rebecca emphasizes practical skills people can use between sessions. Sessions aim to create an open, nonjudgmental space where clients can talk about fears, guilt, and shame. She helps people name what they are feeling and try new ways of responding.

Rebecca also focuses on issues like abandonment, communication problems, and the impact of separation or divorce. Rebecca supports people facing life transitions, midlife questions, and struggles with meaning or purpose. She frames therapy as a collaborative process and helps clients build self-love and healthier routines.

Work often includes emotion regulation tools drawn from DBT and value-driven action from ACT. Her background includes extensive trauma work and regular use of EMDR for processing traumatic memories. Rebecca invites clients to move at a pace that feels manageable and to set goals that match their priorities.

Online support

How attachment and trauma work translates to online care

Rebecca blends attachment-based ideas with trauma-focused approaches to help people understand patterns in relationships and how early experiences affect current reactions. Attachment-based work looks at how people connect, how they respond when feeling threatened, and what shifts might lead to steadier relationships and self-soothing.

She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help clients clarify values and take small steps toward them despite hard emotions. ACT focuses on noticing thoughts and choosing actions that match what matters most. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) provides concrete skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication when stress runs high.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Rebecca will work with each person to identify goals, try approaches that fit those goals, and adjust as needed. Together a plan evolves from where the client is now and what they want to change.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy fit into real life. Video sessions let people practice new skills in the moment, phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is low, and messaging or live chat can support brief check-ins or between-session work. These options aim to offer flexibility so therapy can continue around work, family, and daily demands.
