Rebecca Preston

Holistic Jungian therapist specializing in trauma and relationships

About

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in New York State with over 8 years of clinical experience. My primary work has been with individuals struggling with substance use and the wide range of emotional, relational, and physical issues that accompany addiction. I have worked with individuals with histories of complex trauma, including intergenerational trauma and childhood attachment issues. I also have experience in treating mood disorders such as anxiety, depression, and bi-polar disorders, as well as a variety of personality disorders. My clients have ranged in ages, from young adolescents to older adults, and have come from a wide variety of cultural backgrounds.

My approach is warm, empathetic, and playful; I believe that life is already difficult enough, and we don’t need to make it harder for ourselves! I primarily practice Mindfulness-based counseling, which is a client-centered and trauma-informed approach. I believe in leading with compassion and understanding, and one of my greatest hopes is that each client can approach themselves with compassion and understanding as well. I believe that recovery and wellness is a lifelong process, and that my role is to walk beside you to provide tools and support as you make your journey.

Is Online Therapy the Right Step Toward Better Mental Health?

For many common concerns – including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, and life transitions – online therapy has been shown to be as effective as in-person treatment. It can be a practical option for people seeking support for these issues.

One major advantage is flexibility. Clients can connect in the format that suits them best: video appointments, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging. This variety makes it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and to choose the communication style that feels most comfortable.

All participating therapists are licensed professionals, and clients have the option to switch providers if they seek a different therapeutic fit. Online therapy offers accessible ways to begin and continue mental health care without changing the core goals or quality of treatment.
