Rebecca Stallworth, LCSW

Rebecca Stallworth is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in California with 38 years of clinical experience. She supports adults dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship strain, parenting strain, addiction concerns, anger, and related challenges. Sessions are offered in English and Cantonese.

Rebecca draws on practical, skills-based approaches. She uses cognitive behavioral techniques to spot thinking patterns that feed unhelpful reactions. She teaches mindfulness strategies to help slow down impulsive responses and notice bodily cues before anger spikes.

Attachment-focused work is part of her approach when early relationships affect how people relate now. That work looks at patterns around closeness, abandonment, and trust and then practices different ways of relating. Dialectical behavior elements are used to build emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer interpersonal communication.

Rebecca has long experience running individual and group psychotherapy. She has provided grief counseling and helped people through major life transitions. Her background includes work addressing trauma recovery after emotional and physical abuse, and supporting those with military-related trauma in VA settings.

In sessions she emphasizes clients' strengths and practical steps toward change. Conversations focus on short-term skills people can try between meetings, clearer communication patterns, and coping strategies for intense feelings. She asks about goals, then helps form a plan people can use in everyday life.
