About Rebecca

Rebecca Poladian is a Pennsylvania Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 20 years of experience in mental health. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, parenting challenges, trauma, and related concerns including ADHD and addiction.

Rebecca treats clients as partners in the work. She avoids one-size-fits-all plans and prefers collaborative conversations about what the person needs. Sessions focus on clear goals and practical steps the client can try between meetings.

Her background includes many years helping adults with grief, intimacy-related worries, and career or life transitions. She has worked with people navigating blended family dynamics, caregiving burdens, and health-related stress such as cancer and fertility concerns. Rebecca also addresses body image, eating issues, and forgiveness work when those topics come up.

In the room she draws on several well-known methods to guide the work. Those include Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), Motivational Interviewing, and Psychodynamic Therapy. Rebecca explains ideas in plain language and helps clients choose tools that fit their day-to-day life.

She speaks English and accepts international clients. Costs vary by location and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed before scheduling a first session.

How her approaches translate to online work

Rebecca uses Client-Centered Therapy to focus on the client's concerns and priorities, helping the person steer sessions and name practical goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to look at thoughts and behaviors, and to teach step-by-step strategies for managing anxiety, sleep problems, or mood. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) can be helpful when relationship feelings and attachment patterns are central to the work, offering ways to notice and name emotional responses.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Rebecca will discuss methods, try them out, and adjust based on the client's needs, goals, and preferences. The client and therapist decide collaboratively which tools to use and when to shift focus.

The practical benefits of online sessions include fitting meetings into a busy schedule and reducing time spent traveling. Online work can make it easier to check in from a quieter spot, have shorter focused sessions, or keep therapy on the calendar during life changes. Confirm current session options before booking to know which formats are offered and to pick the arrangement that best fits everyday life.
