About Rebecca

Rebecca Hyatt is a California-licensed clinical social worker with four decades of practice helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship concerns. She emphasizes building a respectful, nonjudgmental partnership where clients can explore thoughts and feelings and develop practical ways to increase self-esteem, confidence, and motivation.

Background and approach

Her work balances structured techniques with a warm, client-centered stance. Rebecca draws on cognitive behavioral strategies to help people identify and reframe patterns that maintain distress, while also using solution-focused ideas to set attainable goals and track progress.

Over her 40-year career she has supported people through life transitions, coping with isolation or loneliness, and challenges related to communication, family dynamics, and substance concerns. Clients access her services in California, and she communicates in English.

Rebecca aims to make the start of therapy approachable and encourages those who are ready to take the first step in exploring change and personal growth.

Practical therapeutic approaches for online care

Rebecca often draws on cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice and change thought and behavior patterns that contribute to anxiety, depression, or panic; this approach is useful when clients want concrete tools to manage symptoms. She also uses client-centered therapy to prioritize the client's voice, offering empathetic listening and support so people can explore values, relationships, and self-esteem at their own pace. Solution-focused techniques are woven in to set clear, achievable goals and highlight small changes that build momentum.

Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. She works together with each person to identify goals and preferences, trying different strategies and adjusting the plan to fit what feels most helpful and realistic for the client's life circumstances.

Online sessions are available by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, which can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule or manage care from home in California. These formats offer flexibility in communication style and timing, allowing clients to engage in the ways that suit them best while working toward their goals.
