About Rebecca Wedel
Rebecca Wedel is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), a credential for master’s-level social workers with advanced clinical training and licensure, who approaches therapy with a strong emphasis on building genuine rapport first. She believes meaningful progress begins with a solid working relationship, and from that foundation she draws from a range of counseling methods to match what a client is facing. Her work may incorporate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Mindfulness-Based Therapy, Narrative Therapy, psychotherapy, and an integrated approach that blends strategies when it is helpful to do so.
Rebecca holds a Master’s in Social Work and has also become a Certified Dementia Specialist. Her professional background includes supporting people through individual therapy as well as care settings such as medical and surgical environments, high-risk pregnancy and miscarriage support, inpatient psychiatric care, and rehabilitation. Having moved 11 times with her family, she understands the strain that major transitions can place on adults, couples, and children, including the stress of relocation and the challenge of helping kids adjust to change.
In recent work, Rebecca has focused on the realities many caregivers face while supporting aging parents and raising children at the same time. She also helps clients navigate common life pressures and identity shifts, such as feeling left behind when peers reach milestones, redefining purpose after children leave home, or coping when family or friends do not understand a partner, career path, lifestyle, or personal choices. Rebecca often returns to the idea that perception shapes experience, and she invites clients to explore their patterns of thinking and meaning-making so they can move forward with more clarity and intention.
She describes herself as a caring, sensitive, energetic listener who brings both professional training and lived experience to the therapy process. Outside of work, she enjoys yoga, mindfulness, time in her yard, and University of Kentucky basketball.

Therapy approaches that translate well to online care
Rebecca Wedel draws from evidence-informed approaches that can be effective in an online setting. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on noticing how thoughts, emotions, and behaviors influence each other, then practicing practical skills to shift unhelpful patterns. It is often used when someone wants structured support for stress, anxiety, depression, or coping during major life changes.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients make room for difficult thoughts and feelings while taking steps toward what matters most to them. Rather than getting stuck in a struggle with emotions, ACT emphasizes values, flexible thinking, and committed action, which can be especially helpful during grief, caregiver stress, or identity transitions.
Mindfulness Therapy adds tools for slowing down, observing inner experience with less reactivity, and building steadier attention. This can support emotion regulation and day-to-day resilience when life feels demanding.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Rebecca collaborates with clients to choose strategies that fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting along the way as new insights emerge.
Online therapy also offers practical flexibility. Sessions can happen through video calls or phone sessions, and support can continue between sessions through live chat or text-based messaging, making it easier to stay engaged even with busy schedules, caregiving responsibilities, or travel.
