About Rebecca

Rebecca O'Neal is a Licensed Professional Counselor who draws on two decades of counseling experience. She earned a master’s degree in Counseling from the University of Houston-Clear Lake and holds Texas LPC 59176. Her background includes long work in school settings, where she supported learning and emotional needs over many years.

She helps people facing relationship stress, anxiety, grief, parenting challenges, and low self-esteem. Rebecca also addresses career worries, depression, ADHD, and major life changes.

Background and approach

Her style is straightforward and practical so parents and caregivers can use new skills right away. In sessions she emphasizes clear steps you can try between meetings. She listens, helps set realistic goals, and teaches coping strategies that fit a busy family life.

Rebecca keeps explanations plain and focuses on what matters most to each person. Her professional history includes 20 years as an elementary school counselor and one year as a special education counselor. That experience shaped her ability to explain strategies simply and to work with people across different situations.

She brings that same practical focus to online counseling. Rebecca offers phone sessions, video calls, live chat, and text-based messaging. Her practice uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

To begin, clients complete a brief matching questionnaire and schedule sessions according to the therapist’s availability.

Approaches that fit family life and online care

Rebecca uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change. One approach emphasizes skill-building for managing anxiety and stress through simple coping strategies and behavioral steps that can be practiced at home. Another approach targets emotional regulation and grief by helping people name their feelings, build routines, and try manageable changes to daily life.

Finding the right method is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to choose and adapt approaches based on goals, needs, and what feels doable for a busy schedule. That collaborative process helps tailor sessions so techniques are realistic and helpful.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions work for hands-free meetings, and live chat or text-based messaging can fit short check-ins or when juggling family responsibilities. These options make it easier to keep continuity and practice skills between meetings while fitting therapy into a crowded life.
