Rebecca McDow, LPC

Rebecca McDow is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas who focuses on helping adults manage stress, anxiety, grief, depression, and self-esteem concerns. She also supports people navigating life changes, relationship questions, work stress, ADHD, and compassion fatigue. Her approach is straightforward and practical, aimed at making steady progress in everyday life.

She uses a person-centered way of working that treats each person as unique and valuable. Rebecca draws on cognitive behavioral ideas to spot unhelpful thinking patterns and on solution-focused techniques to set small, reachable goals. She keeps sessions non-judgmental and geared toward what the client wants to accomplish.

Over 18 years in practice, Rebecca has worked with a broad range of adult concerns, from trauma and abuse to sleep and eating difficulties. That experience informs a calm, measured style that emphasizes clear steps and coping skills people can use between sessions. She is comfortable addressing issues like anger, bipolar concerns, and first responder stress within the context of a collaborative plan.

Rebecca aims to build a supportive environment where clients can talk through painful experiences and try new ways of responding. She offers evening and weekend appointment times to fit busy schedules. People who value a respectful, practical therapist often find her approach helpful.

Her licensure as an LPC is held in Texas. Prospective clients should use the Start Therapy button to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule according to availability.

How Rebecca’s Approaches Translate to Online Care

Rebecca commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). ACT focuses on helping people notice their thoughts and choose actions that match their values, which can be useful for stress, grief, and life changes. CBT helps identify unhelpful thought patterns and teaches practical skills to change reactions to anxiety, depression, and mood swings.

Finding the right approach is a team effort. Rebecca will work collaboratively to figure out which methods fit a person's needs and goals, and she will adjust the plan over time based on what is helpful. Clients can expect a mix of talking, practical exercises, and short assignment-style activities to try between sessions.

Details about specific online session formats are not listed here, so please confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, allow for evening or weekend meetings, and reduce time spent traveling. It also lets people use tools like worksheets or guided exercises during or after sessions to keep progress moving forward.
