About Rebecca

Rebecca Gibson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with ten years of recent practice and a much longer history of training that began in the 1980s. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, addiction, parenting challenges, grief, and blended family issues among other concerns. She works with adults who want practical skills for coping with life changes and improving everyday functioning.

Her approach is pragmatic and person-focused. She uses client-centered methods to follow what matters most to each person. She also draws on mindfulness practices and narrative techniques to help people notice patterns and change how they tell their own stories.

Rebecca integrates body-focused and experiential work when appropriate. That includes somatic methods and hypnotherapy elements for stress, chronic pain, trauma, and addiction-related symptoms. She aims to teach skills people can use outside of sessions for calmer days and clearer choices.

She describes therapy as a collaborative process of listening and asking direct questions. Sessions often include pauses and reflection as well as concrete skills practice. The work tends to focus on what is happening now and on small changes that add up over time.

Rebecca trained initially in Austin and has continued exploring varied clinical approaches since then. Her background blends decades of clinical exposure with hands-on techniques for emotion regulation, boundaries, and communication. If someone wants to begin, she asks them to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How her approaches translate to online work

Rebecca often uses client-centered therapy to focus on what the individual finds most pressing. That approach emphasizes listening, asking clear questions, and building on the person’s own goals and strengths to make changes. Mindfulness therapy is another common tool she uses; it teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce stress and improve emotional regulation. Narrative therapy helps people examine the stories they tell about themselves and try alternative meanings that reduce shame or stuckness.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. She will collaborate with the client to identify which methods feel most helpful, and adapt as goals and needs evolve. That means techniques may shift over several sessions until a good fit is found.

The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a weekday schedule, reduce commute time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Licensed professionals can use a mix of conversational, skill-practice, and guided reflective exercises that translate well to remote sessions, and she applies her approaches to those formats as appropriate.
