Rebecca Lanier is a licensed clinical social worker with nine years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, trauma, and self esteem concerns. She offers a calm, nonjudgmental presence and starts by meeting each person where they are. In the first session she and the client set clear goals together and decide what feels most important to work on next.
Her background includes work with people who have experienced trauma and with those facing mood and anxiety struggles. She has also taught cognitive behavioral strategies, skills from dialectical behavior approaches, and substance treatment counseling in prior roles. Rebecca describes her day-to-day approach as trauma-informed and strengths-based.
She favors an eclectic, solution-oriented style that adapts to each person. Sessions move at the client’s pace and focus on practical steps that link to goals. Rebecca aims to guide and support people as they navigate healing and personal growth.
Clients can expect straightforward conversation, collaborative goal-setting, and techniques chosen to fit the situation. She emphasizes using individual strengths and small, achievable changes rather than one-size-fits-all plans.
Rebecca practices in Colorado and works in English. Her LCSW credential stands for Licensed Clinical Social Worker and CSW indicates Clinical Social Work experience. To begin she asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire so scheduling can follow the outcome of that match.
Practical approaches and how online work can help
Rebecca uses evidence-based techniques in straightforward ways. Cognitive behavioral approaches focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors, which can help with anxiety and low mood. Dialectical skills offer tools for managing intense emotions and improving coping in stressful moments, often by teaching clear emotion regulation and distress tolerance strategies.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Rebecca collaborates with each person to choose methods that fit their goals and pace. She adapts techniques over time if something isn't working, and she helps clients decide which tools to try next based on progress and preference.
Online therapy can make it easier to build regular sessions into a busy life. It can reduce travel time, allow scheduling around work or school, and make brief check-ins or skill-practice sessions simpler to fit into a day. Because the specific session formats are not listed here, confirm current options before booking so you know how sessions will be held. Licensed professionals can still provide focused, goal-oriented work through remote sessions when that fits the client's circumstances.
