About
Rebecca Preston is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor practicing in New York with over eight years of clinical experience. She has focused much of her work on supporting individuals navigating substance use and the range of emotional, relational, and physical challenges that often accompany addiction.
Her clinical experience includes working with people who have histories of complex trauma, such as intergenerational trauma and difficulties rooted in childhood attachment. She also treats mood-related concerns including anxiety, depression, and bipolar disorder, and has experience with a variety of personality disorders.
Rebecca’s clients have spanned a broad age range from young adolescents to older adults and come from diverse cultural backgrounds. Her style is warm, empathetic, and at times playful - she believes therapy should reduce life’s burdens, not add to them. She primarily uses mindfulness-based counseling within a client-centered, trauma-informed framework, and emphasizes compassion and understanding as cornerstones of care.
As a New York state licensed mental health counselor (license number 009100), Rebecca views recovery and wellness as ongoing processes and aims to walk alongside clients, offering practical tools and steady support throughout their journeys.

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.
