About Rebecca

Rebecca Ness is a licensed clinical social worker in Florida with ten years of experience. She focuses on helping people through stress, anxiety, depression, and life transitions. She also supports those facing sexual health and intimacy concerns and people coping with chronic illness and caregiving strain.

Rebecca spent much of her career in cancer centers, guiding patients from diagnosis through treatment and into post-treatment or end-of-life care. That work taught her how illness can change daily life, roles, and relationships.

Background and approach

She is open to working with people facing other chronic medical conditions as well. Her approach begins from the idea that each person is the expert on their own story. She listens for strengths and helps people rewrite painful or limiting parts of their narrative.

Sessions are practical and paced to what the person needs in the moment. Rebecca draws on client-centered work to build trust and on mindfulness practices to help with stress and bodily awareness. She also uses narrative and solution-focused ideas to set small, reachable goals and to shift unhelpful patterns.

People come to her for help with intimacy and sexual concerns, body image, grief, caregiver stress, chronic pain or illness, and communication problems. She emphasizes clear, respectful conversation and steps that fit daily life.

How Rebecca's Approaches Work Online

Rebecca uses Narrative Therapy to help people tell and reshape their life stories, separating problems from identity and spotting moments of strength. This approach can be useful for work on grief, relationship stories, body image, and illness-related changes.

She also uses Client-Centered Therapy, which centers on listening and building a trusting, nonjudgmental relationship. That helps people feel heard and to explore intimate or sexual health concerns at their own pace. Mindfulness Therapy is offered to build present-moment awareness of thoughts and bodily sensations, which can reduce stress and improve attention to bodily needs.

Finding the right blend of approaches is part of the work. Rebecca will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, comfort level, and day-to-day schedule. She checks in frequently and adjusts the plan as progress is made.

Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care more flexible. Video calls allow fuller interaction, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, chat or text can work for brief check-ins or when someone prefers not to use a camera. These options help people fit therapy into busy lives and maintain continuity of care across locations.
