About Rebecca

Rebecca Ness is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) based in Florida with ten years of experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy concerns, and life changes. She also supports those facing medical issues and the emotional impacts of illness.

Rebecca spent much of her career working in cancer centers. She has helped people from diagnosis through treatment and into post-treatment or end-of-life stages. That work led her to support others with chronic illness and caregiver stress as well.

She has additional training that addresses sexual health and intimacy, with a particular interest in female sexual health. Rebecca helps clients reconnect with their bodies, address sexual functioning concerns, and improve communication in intimate relationships.

Her approach treats the person as the expert on their own life. She uses client-centered work to follow each person’s goals, and combines mindfulness, narrative, and solution-focused ideas to make changes that feel realistic. Sessions are conversational and practical, focused on clear next steps.

Rebecca aims to help people build on strengths, cope with grief or trauma, and navigate career or family stress. She works in English and bases care on individual needs, helping clients find ways forward during difficult transitions.

Approaches that translate well to online sessions

Rebecca uses client-centered therapy to follow each person's concerns and goals, encouraging straightforward conversations that put the client's priorities first. Mindfulness therapy is offered as a way to build moment-to-moment awareness and reduce stress, which can help with anxiety, chronic pain, and emotional overwhelm. Narrative therapy helps people tell and reframe their life stories, making space to separate identity from difficult events and to imagine different possibilities.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Rebecca will talk with the client about what they want to change and which methods feel most comfortable. Together they try ideas, check what helps, and adjust the plan over time so it fits the person's needs and preferences.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm the current options before booking. Many people find online work helpful because it can fit into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, or make shorter check-ins easier to arrange. Rebecca’s focus is on practical strategies and communication skills that can be practiced between meetings, making sessions useful whether they happen in person or remotely.
