About Rebecca Pedersen
As a complex certified trauma therapist, Rebecca frequently uses EMDR and Brainspotting in her work, methods she has seen produce meaningful shifts for many individuals recovering from abuse and post-traumatic stress. She also draws on approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to address patterns around relationships, self-worth, and emotional regulation.
Rebecca creates an open, nonjudgmental space where thoughts and feelings can be explored and where clients can develop tailored strategies for daily challenges, from overcoming addictive behaviors to managing anxiety and finding purpose in midlife. Her practice includes support for issues like abandonment, attachment concerns, divorce and separation, guilt and shame, and forgiveness.
Taking the first step toward therapy often requires courage, and Rebecca acknowledges that bravery in each person who seeks help. She aims to collaborate with clients to identify goals, try approaches that fit their needs, and support steady progress over time.
