About Rebekah

Dr. Rebekah Jaeger is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 16 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and trauma. She focuses on practical steps clients can use day to day. Her style is direct and respectful, aimed at helping people get moving toward the changes they want.

She works with adults, adolescents, and children in many settings, including community mental health, school-based services, college counseling, and online platforms. She has extensive experience with LGBT concerns and has also supported people connected to the military and first responder communities. Her work covers a wide range of issues such as grief, intimacy-related struggles, sleep and eating problems, parenting concerns, bipolar disorder, and ADHD.

Dr. Jaeger uses a mix of approaches chosen to fit each person. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Imago Relationship Therapy to build practical plans. Sessions typically focus on clear goals and small steps that add up over time.

People who see her often want relief from overwhelming thoughts, help rebuilding relationships, or tools to get through major life changes. She emphasizes honest communication and a respectful working relationship. Treatment is collaborative, with the client and therapist shaping the path forward together.

Her practice also addresses specialized areas like adoption and foster care, body image, chronic illness and pain, kink and alternative sexual cultures, and family of origin issues. She aims to help people regain a sense of control and purpose as they work through difficult situations.

How her approaches shape online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and commit to actions that match their values. It is useful when worries or avoidance get in the way of living a meaningful life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on changing unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors through structured exercises and practice between sessions. It often helps with anxiety, depression, and sleep or eating problems. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication, which can be helpful for intense mood swings and relationship strain.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the client to identify goals, try methods that fit those goals, and adjust plans based on what helps. Decisions about which techniques to emphasize are made together, with attention to the client’s needs and preferences.

Confirm current session options before booking since formats are not specified here. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - it can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins during a break, or make attendance more consistent when schedules are tight. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and skill practice to an online setting so progress continues between sessions.
