“Illness in this society, physical or mental, they are not abnormalities. They are normal responses to an abnormal culture.”

- Gabor Mate 

“They are normal not in what may be called the absolute sense of the word; they are normal only in relation to a profoundly abnormal society. Their perfect adjustment to that abnormal society is a measure of their mental sickness.”

- Aldous Huxley, Brave New World

“People will do anything, no matter how absurd, in order to avoid facing their own souls.  One does not become enlightened by imagining figures of light, but by making the darkness conscious.”

- Carl Jung, Psychology and Alchemy

“The Wild Woman is the one who dares, who creates, and who destroys. She is the primitive and inventing soul that makes all creative acts and arts possible. She creates a forest around us and we begin to deal with life from that fresh and original perspective.”

What past clients have said…

I wanted to send you a quick note of appreciation. I feel very fortunate to have found such an amazing therapist. Looking back to how I felt earlier this year, I am a completely different person. Thank you for the incredible work you do!

I feel so grateful that I listened to my gut and chose to work with you. I truly believe in myself for the first time in my life. When I started seeing you, I wasn’t sure if I’d make it as a writer. In the past, I’d have trouble even saying what I’m about to say as I was taught in my culture to be modest. Not only did I graduate from a top masters program while seeing you, I was one of the youngest interns to receive a position as a writer at one of the most prestigious companies in Hollywood. I have been able to come to terms with what I value in my culture and what I value for myself as an individual. I am free to take up space. I don’t punish myself anymore. I don’t need to be strong. I can actually take healthy pride in my work, and I’m okay with people rejecting it. I don’t fear death as much because for the first time in my life I am actually living! You really got me Rebecca. REALLY.

I can’t describe to you how much this was what I needed. I love my weirdness. Life is freaking painful, messy, and I wouldn’t have it any other way. All of those moments led me to this point, and I know this is only the beginning. I found ME. No one can take that from me.

Rebecca, you have a gift. You always seemed to say things that pulled directly at what I needed to hear. I realized that none of the other therapists truly cared about me because they just listened and validated me. You did that but you also cut through the BS real quick. I thought wow, FINALLY. At times it shocked me how on point you were. I see now that it all came from love. You didn’t want to see me continue to hurt myself. I can’t believe how many years I spent in therapy being asleep. You helped me WAKE up. When I first started seeing you, I always asked you how you were able to do this intense kind of work. Now, I get it. You can’t put a price tag on completely changing another person’s life. Thank you 🙏

You saw me. Really saw me. For the first time, I was really able to grieve for the older version of myself who was very anxious and easily startled. I can truly say that I am proud of myself and the strong, confident women I have become. I can’t imagine ever getting to this place without your help. I cannot thank you enough.

Rebecca, you know the other day my partner mentioned something to me that literally brought tears to my eyes. They commented on how I was able to come to them with a concern in such a calm demeanor. Shortly after, my two children walked into the room where one child spilled their milk. One of them held the other child’s hands and started to take deep breaths with them. They both calmed down and hugged! My partner and I looked at each other with a profound sense of connection at that moment. It also doesn’t hurt that our sex life is beyond anything I ever fantasized about. I don’t need to escape into fantasy anymore. Reality feels pretty good :) Thank you so much.

As a female physician, I really struggled getting the same recognition as my male colleagues, both as a family medicine doctor and research fellow. I always felt helpless about this. I never felt smart enough, thin enough, a good enough partner, a good enough friend…When I got pregnant and stopped taking ADHD medication, all my insecurities magnified. Everything I thought I had nicely packaged away came flooding in, along with intense migraines and extreme fatigue. You provided the safe container I needed. Not only have I learned strategies to help my ADHD, I feel secure. I created necessary boundaries with people in my life, and even started creating multiple advocacy groups for female physicians. I feel 10 years younger and no longer feel guilty for taking care of me!
