About Rebecca

Rebecca Holland is an Illinois-licensed LCSW who brings 12 years of clinical experience to work with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, anger, self-esteem struggles, relationship and family concerns, trauma and grief, and a wide range of mood and behavioral challenges.

Background and approach

She also addresses issues such as addiction, eating and sleeping difficulties, parenting stresses, ADHD and bipolar symptoms, and specific concerns like abandonment, attachment wounds, body image, communication problems, and postpartum struggles. Her practice includes support for LGBT clients and a broad list of life transitions and identity-related concerns.

She approaches therapy from a collaborative, strengths-based stance, viewing each person as the expert on their own story and partnering to build coping skills and practical strategies. Rebecca uses evidence-informed methods including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), and mindfulness techniques to help people identify patterns, manage intense emotions, and develop more adaptive habits.

Clients can expect practical tools, reflective work, and support for realistic goal-setting as they navigate change. As a licensed clinical social worker practicing in Illinois, she aims to make the path toward greater well-being manageable and approachable, offering guidance that honors each person’s values and pace.

Applying Evidence-Based Approaches in Online Therapy



Rebecca integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) into online work. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and replacing them with more constructive patterns, which can help with anxiety, depression, and mood regulation. DBT emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, interpersonal effectiveness, and mindfulness skills to manage intense emotions and improve relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and happens collaboratively. She works with clients to explore which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting strategies over time so the work remains practical and relevant to each person’s life.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to maximize flexibility and accessibility. These formats make it easier to integrate skill practice into daily routines, accommodate busy schedules, and maintain continuity during life changes while still receiving structured, skills-focused care from a licensed professional.
