About Rebecca

Rebecca Dykes is an LCSW with 20 years of experience in mental health practice in Florida. She brings a background that spans inpatient and outpatient care, forensic and community settings, and work with children, adolescents, adults, and ministry leaders.

Background and approach

Her clinical interests include stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship challenges, grief, parenting, self-esteem, career concerns, depression, compassion fatigue, and ADHD, along with several focused areas such as autism and Asperger syndrome, blended family issues, caregiver stress, and communication problems. Her approach balances directness with warmth, emphasizing respect, sensitivity, and compassion.

Rebecca draws on client-centered principles and structured therapies like CBT and DBT to address emotional regulation, executive functioning, coping with life changes, and addictive patterns. She also integrates practical, solution-focused strategies and motivational interviewing to support clients in setting and reaching meaningful goals.

Rebecca offers a range of session formats including video, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging, and notes that scheduling options can include some Saturday phone sessions and evening text sessions by request. Prospective clients in Florida can begin by selecting the Start Therapy button, completing a short matching questionnaire, and scheduling according to therapist availability.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Rebecca commonly draws on Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses on listening, empathy, and building a collaborative relationship that helps clients clarify their own goals and values. This approach can be helpful for people navigating life changes, grief, and self-esteem challenges.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) techniques to address patterns of thinking and emotion regulation. CBT helps identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors often linked to anxiety, depression, and addictive patterns, while DBT provides skills for managing intense emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness.

Choosing the right approach is part of the clinical process and the therapist will collaborate with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. Treatment can combine elements from different modalities to create a personalized plan.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility to fit varying schedules and communication styles. These formats can make it easier to access consistent care while balancing work, family, and other commitments, and they allow for ongoing collaboration between client and therapist regardless of location within the service area.
