Rebecca Nelson

Rebecca Nelson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Wisconsin with 8 years of experience. She aims to make therapy feel as user-friendly and approachable as possible, especially for people who want to understand themselves more deeply, strengthen self-esteem, and build a greater sense of empowerment in their lives.

She works with individuals seeking support with relationships, emotional regulation, the effects of trauma, grief and loss, and major life transitions. Rebecca also helps clients strengthen problem-solving skills and look for meaning in life experiences, particularly during times that feel overwhelming or uncertain. She believes meaningful growth often comes from the courage to explore one’s inner world, develop authentic connections, build a sense of competence, and practice freedom of choice in everyday life.

Her work is grounded in a humanistic, person-centered, trauma-informed approach. She is relationship-oriented and strengths-based, and she incorporates principles from positive psychology to help clients identify what is working and build on it. Rebecca is also a Certified Grief Counselor and a Certified Eating Disorder Specialist, and she is currently training in Women’s Health while welcoming all genders and identities.

Rebecca values connection and a sense of security as central to the therapy process. She strives to be genuine, compassionate, collaborative, and non-judgmental, creating sessions that feel inviting and supportive. Humor is welcome, and she aims for clients to feel comfortable showing up as they are.
