Rebecca Gage is a limited licensed professional counselor specializing in individual, groups and couple’s therapy.
Rebecca believes counseling is a place to learn and grow. We have the freedom to choose what directions our life takes and the responsibility to take control of that freedom. Rebecca serves as a guide in the process that helps the client(s) take responsibility, action, and come to a resolution. Your happiness and well-being are her main concerns.
Rebecca works with several theories and techniques as they relate to the client and any presenting concerns. These include but aren’t limited to CBT, Person-Centered, and Solution-Focused therapies. She uses techniques that encourage clients to find the solutions to their dilemmas within themselves. It is her goal to best serve her clients by providing an environment that is a welcoming and safe place to share yourself.
Don't wait; the time will never be "just right". Start where you stand and work with whatever tools you may have at your command, and better tools will be found as you go along.
