About Rebecca

Rebecca McDow is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas who helps people manage stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, and life changes. She works with adults facing issues like depression, ADHD, relationship concerns, and jealousy. Her approach is warm and nonjudgmental and aims to make each session practical and focused on the client's goals.

Rebecca uses everyday language and straightforward tools in sessions. She listens first, then helps clients set small, achievable steps. Sessions often include ways to handle emotion, build better routines for sleeping and eating, and manage workplace or caregiving strain.

With 18 years of experience, Rebecca combines methods from acceptance and commitment work, cognitive behavior techniques, dialectical behavior approaches, client-centered care, and solution-focused strategies. She tailors these methods to what the person needs rather than using a single rigid model. That means treatment can shift over time as goals change.

Rebecca aims to create a supportive space where clients can try new behaviors and track progress. She emphasizes practical tools for coping with anger, jealousy, burnout, and grief. Many people find her style calm and steady when they are facing big transitions.

She offers evening appointments on weekdays and additional daily and evening slots on weekends. People interested in starting will complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule based on availability.

How Rebecca’s Methods Translate to Online Work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and picking actions that match values. It helps when someone is stuck on fear, avoidance, or ongoing worry about relationships or life direction. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect and teaches practical tools to change unhelpful patterns. CBT is often useful for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and managing jealousy triggers.

Finding the best approach is a team effort. Rebecca talks with each person about what they want to change and which methods feel most useful. She adapts techniques over time so therapy stays relevant to the client’s goals and daily life.

Confirm the current session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, allow for evening and weekend times, and reduce travel time. It also lets people do brief check-ins when plans are tight and use exercises that fit into work breaks or caregiving routines. Licensed professionals can recommend practical homework and routines that work in everyday settings.
