About Rebecca
Rebecca Burda is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with nine years of clinical experience based in Wisconsin. She works with adults, young people, and parents on concerns such as anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, and anger. Rebecca also supports people dealing with parenting strain, caregiver stress, and mood-related problems.
Rebecca has spent much of her career helping children, adolescents, young adults, and their caregivers.

Her background includes experience related to adoption and foster care and blended family challenges.
Her approach is person-centered and trauma-informed. She aims to be direct and genuine in sessions, and she partners with people to set goals and decide how to work toward them. Rebecca uses practical, evidence-based methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, EMDR, and Motivational Interviewing to address symptoms and patterns that cause distress.
Sessions focus on concrete skills and clearer thinking. That can mean learning tools for managing strong emotions, practicing strategies to reduce anxiety, or working through past traumatic events with appropriate techniques. She also helps parents and caregivers with communication and coping strategies for daily stress.
Rebecca accepts international clients and conducts work in English. She frames therapy as a collaborative process and asks people to be active in choosing goals and methods. To begin, clients follow the site's matching and scheduling steps to arrange a first session.
How sessions work
How Rebecca Uses Therapy Approaches Online
Rebecca commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy in work with strong emotions and recurring patterns. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical behavioral experiments, which helps with anxiety, anger, and mood symptoms. DBT teaches concrete skills for managing intense feelings, improving distress tolerance, and strengthening interpersonal effectiveness.She also integrates EMDR when addressing trauma; EMDR helps process traumatic memories in a paced way so memories are less likely to trigger strong reactions. These approaches are explained and chosen together so the client understands what each method involves and how it might help their goals.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative step. Rebecca will discuss goals, symptoms, and preferences and then recommend an approach or mix of methods. That plan can be adjusted as work proceeds so the style fits the person's needs.

In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work or caregiving, allow short check-ins when a full visit is not practical, and reduce travel time. Talk with Rebecca through the platform's matching process to learn which session types are available and which will work best for your situation.
