Rebecca Wedel

Rebecca Wedel is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), a master’s-level social work clinician with advanced clinical licensure, who emphasizes the importance of building a strong therapist-client connection as the starting point for meaningful progress. With that rapport in place, she draws from several evidence-informed methods to meet the needs of the moment, which may include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution Focused Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Mindfulness-Based Therapy, and psychotherapy. She may also use an integrated approach when it best matches what a client is working through.

Her background includes work across a range of settings, including individual therapy, medical and surgical care, high-risk pregnancy and miscarriage support, inpatient psychiatric care, and rehabilitation. She also achieved the goal of becoming a Certified Dementia Specialist, reflecting a focused commitment to understanding dementia-related concerns and the challenges that can accompany aging and caregiving.

Having moved 11 times with her family, Rebecca brings lived understanding of the stress that transitions can place on individuals, couples, and children, including the practical and emotional work of adjusting to change. In recent work, she has spent significant time supporting caregivers balancing care for elderly parents and children while trying to maintain their own lives. She also helps clients navigate common pressures around expectations and identity, such as feeling left behind in life milestones, redefining purpose after children leave home, or coping with disapproval or misunderstanding from family and friends regarding a partner, career choice, lifestyle, or other personal decisions. She often returns to the idea that perception shapes experience, and supports clients in clarifying their own perspectives so they can move forward with greater intention.
