Welcome to Rebecca Solomon LCSW LLC
Does therapy feel scary? Are you overwhelmed by the idea of opening up and sharing your thoughts and feelings? If so, I can help.
I am originally from Boston, but spent my first 20 professional years in Chicago. Currently, I live in New Jersey with my husband and four children. ​I earned my Bachelor's Degree in Psychology and my Master's of Social Work Degree at The University of Michigan. I have been working with children, families, and adults for over 20 years, in juvenile detention, schools, private practice, and as a home-based therapist. Most of my experience has been working with clients who are struggling with mental health concerns, such as Major Depressive Disorder, Anxiety, Bipolar Disorder, Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, ADHD, and Psychosis. I have also worked extensively with clients who have experienced relationship issues, trauma and abuse, and interpersonal conflict.
My Approach
My role as a therapist is to listen and respond to the needs and motivations of my clients. Once there is understanding of the client's goals, then we can work together to help him/her/them get there and conquer obstacles that may be getting in the way.
I typically use Cognitive Behavioral strategies to work with clients on changing problematic behaviors and thought processes. What does that actually mean? I teach clients specific strategies to reduce racing, worst case scenario thoughts. I help clients feel more confident and less like imposters. I support clients as they master skills to tackle depression and its symptoms. I approach therapy through a Humanistic lens that examines all of the systems in one's life and how they are working/not working for that client. This means that we will explore all facets of your life to see what might need tweaking in order for you to feel like yourself again.
My style is warm, open-minded, and supportive. However, I also believe in honesty and the need for direct communication. Asking for support is a brave first step in working to create the life you want to live. I'm excited to work with you on this difficult, but rewarding journey!
