Rebecca Shoemaker, LPC

Rebecca Shoemaker is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, career struggles, and depression. She works with people facing major life changes and supports practical steps toward feeling more steady and confident.

Rebecca draws on a client-centered style that keeps conversations focused on each person's needs. She listens first, then helps outline small, doable goals. Sessions tend to be straightforward and goal-minded so clients leave with clear next steps.

Over a decade of work in counseling has given her experience with mood disorders, panic and anxiety symptoms, obsessive-compulsive patterns, and loneliness. She also addresses concerns tied to aging and geriatric issues and common pressures people face at work or in relationships with others.

Her approach blends techniques from cognitive behavioral work and dialectical skills when helpful. She also uses solution-focused strategies to find practical, short-term changes that make daily life easier. Rebecca adapts the mix based on what each person needs in the moment.

She aims to treat people with respect, sensitivity, and compassion while keeping the work down-to-earth. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions based on the therapist's availability. The practice uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

How Rebecca’s approaches work in online therapy

Client-centered therapy starts with listening closely to what matters most to you. The therapist follows your lead, asks questions, and helps shape goals that match your priorities. This approach is useful when you want a space to be heard and a plan built around your values.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect. Rebecca uses CBT techniques to help identify unhelpful thinking patterns and replace them with practical strategies that reduce anxiety, low mood, or panic symptoms.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Rebecca will talk with you about your goals and try methods that fit your needs and preferences. Together you decide which tools to keep and which to change as progress is made.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy day, cut travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Many people find remote sessions helpful for steady, ongoing support while balancing life demands.
