About
Rebecca Shaughnessy is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Alabama with five years of clinical work. She sees people facing stress, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, addictions, grief, parenting challenges, and attention differences among other issues. Her practice also attends to a range of related difficulties such as attachment and abandonment concerns, codependency, midlife transitions, and first responder or veteran-related stressors.
Her approach is collaborative and client-centered: she partners with each person to identify values, preferences, and manageable steps toward their goals. She frames change as a process that often begins with one small decision and emphasizes practical strategies alongside personal insight. Rebecca uses a blend of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused methods, and client-centered techniques to tailor work to the individual in front of her.
Rebecca aims to create a space where exploration and steady progress can coexist. Those seeking structured skills training, values-guided work, or a supportive, goal-oriented partnership may find her ways of working align with their needs. She conducts sessions in English and maintains licensure in relevant jurisdictions.
Teletherapy and remote sessions
Rebecca offers remote sessions that use video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options are intended to provide several ways for people to connect and work together. Her remote work emphasizes collaboration: she and the person seeking help identify priorities, try short-term experiments, and adjust plans as needed so progress can be made in workable steps.
Her clinical work draws on several complementary approaches. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps clarify personal values and encourages committed action, even when uncomfortable thoughts or feelings appear. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on patterns of thinking and behavior and offers concrete strategies to address distressing symptoms. Solution-Focused Therapy highlights small, practical changes and quick goal-setting to build momentum, while Client-Centered Therapy centers the conversation on listening, empathy, and the person’s own experience.
These methods are combined in ways that suit individual preferences, and remote communication modes are selected together based on what fits scheduling and comfort. International clients are not accepted for her services.How long has Rebecca been practicing?
