About Rebecca

Rebecca Hegwood is a licensed professional counselor (LPC, LCMHC) practicing in South Carolina with a decade of clinical experience.

Background and approach

Since earning her degree from the University of South Carolina’s Rehabilitation Counseling program in 2015, she has worked across outpatient community and personal settings supporting people with depression, anxiety, trauma, anger management, life transitions, and relationship concerns. She draws on a broad base of training to tailor care to each client’s strengths and circumstances.

Her approach blends warm, person-centered support with practical skill building. Rebecca emphasizes meeting clients where they are, listening without judgment, and helping them identify internal resources to promote empowerment and growth.

She often integrates cognitive and dialectical behavioral techniques alongside mindfulness and acceptance-based strategies to address unhelpful thoughts, emotion regulation, and behavior change. Clients can expect a collaborative process in which goals are set and adjusted together.

Rebecca values clear communication and a nurturing stance while guiding people through the challenges of grief, addiction, career stress, ADHD-related concerns, and other life difficulties. She invites those ready to take a first step toward renewed balance and fulfillment to begin that work together.

Therapeutic approaches and online care



Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages noticing difficult thoughts and feelings while choosing actions that align with personal values; it can be helpful for stress, anxiety, and navigating life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors to reduce symptoms of depression, anxiety, and related challenges. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) adds skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, which can be especially useful for managing intense emotions and improving relationships.

Finding the right blend of approaches is part of the therapeutic process, and the therapist works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods best match their goals, preferences, and circumstances. This means techniques may be adjusted over time as progress and needs evolve.

Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging offers flexibility for scheduling and makes it easier to access licensed professionals from different locations within the same region. These formats allow sessions to fit into busy lives while still delivering interactive, skill-focused work adapted to each client’s situation.
