Rebecca is excellent. Not only does she continue to provide me with exercises and give me new ways to think about things, she also helps me to make sense of my past and my present relationships. This is especially helpful with how I'm processing my anxiety and my anxious attachment. Thank you so much, Rebecca!

Hello! I am Rebecca L. Cohen, EdD, LPC. I am a licensed counselor in Alabama. I have a great love of learning and helping others learn and grow in their own lives. Currently I am focusing my work with women. My love of learning has offered me the opportunity to gain my Bachelor Degree in Human Services and English, Master of Education, Emphasis in English, Master of Science, Counseling and Psychology, and lastly Doctorate of Education in Counselor Education and Supervision. I have worked most of my career in social service areas. Some populations and areas I have worked in and with are children and families dealing with abuse and neglect, teen and young adults in foster care, depression and anxiety issues, LGBTQ+ community, substance abuse treatment, and trauma.
I would describe my counseling style as person centered. I have always been drawn to Choice Theory/Reality Therapy. I also utilize CBT, DBT, and Motivational Interviewing to aid clients in learning new skills. I love to learn from my clients and to be a partner in their journey to reaching goals. I believe you are the expert about your life and I am only here to aid in your journey and help you find answers or learn how to better cope with issues in life. It takes courage to open up and to be vulnerable in therapy, and I respect that courage.
I look forward to being a partner with you on your journey, whatever that journey might be. I am looking forward to being able to help give you support and a safe place to grow. I can't wait to meet you and start working with you.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Rebecca Cohen is hands down, the best therapist I have ever worked with, she is proactive and responsive. Rebecca is also very efficient and able to help me focus on the most important matters at hand.
Rebecca has always been very professional and thoughtful during our sessions. I have worked with other therapists before but she has made me think in so many new ways that helped me see new perspectives of the issues i face in life. I am very grateful to have worked with her.
I feel heard, supported, and guided - she's great!
Rebecca has been incredibly helpful to me as I came to terms with having Generalized Anxiety Disorder. I went to her for help and coping mechanisms before a diagnosis and then received the diagnosis which was more or less expected, but still stung. She's helped to guide me through this journey, enabling me to make the most of the medication my doctor prescribed me. I couldn't have made as much progress as I have without her. Thanks so much, Rebecca!
I feel like my time is valued and there is a real effort to develop a plan of action to improve my life
She’s so helpful and I would love to keep working with her
Very thoughtful and helpful
Rebecca listens to me and offers helpful guidance and tools.
Only focusing on female patients at the moment, would be helpful if wasn’t recommended to me by the app
Rebecca is kind and insightful. Non-judgmental and understanding. It's been a real pleasure to have her as my therapist. I'm sorry my work didn't cover more sessions. But, she has given me a start. Thank you Rebecca
Focusing on women clients at the moment.
Having someone validate your feelings and experiences and guide you to coming up with solutions that benefit you is such a wonderful feeling. Being able to get help until I have a form of grounding is so essential, and I’m so grateful.
Rebecca is incredibly understanding and intelligent. She has never made me feel judged, only heard and respected. She always answers my journals and notes with excellent advice and action plans. I actually feel like I’m getting somewhere with my therapy.
She is understanding, helps find solution. Tried to give insight in helpful and productive ways.
Rebecca helped me for the past 5 months to understand my emotions and regulate them on my pace. At first I was all over the place as I couldn’t pin point out what was affecting me, but she helped me in exploring and focusing on the issues beneath all these layers. Thank you!
Rebecca has been a great help for me, guiding me through my anxiety and helping me as I started on anti-anxiety medication, which, of course, had been giving me anxiety! Rebecca's good at giving me another perspective and is also extremely encouraging and supportive. She also provides me with worksheets and exercises that I've found helpful. I appreciate all her help thus far!
I'm a longtime client of Rebecca's. She has been very consistent from session to session, and checks in with me between appointments. Her tone is never judgmental which makes me feel safe to share honestly. I have had a great deal of ups and downs since starting with her, and she has always provided me with whatever emotional support I'm in need of.
Rebecca is lovely and easy to talk to and is great at sending resources to try and help assess you and help you find coping strategies and ways to learn new, more healthy behaviours!
Rebecca is great help in walking through my issues and working towards solutions that feel attainable. She knows exactly what I’m trying to work on and never wasted a moment during our session. My experience has been wonderful.
Rebecca has been great with me. She understands that I have a busy schedule and she reaches out to see how I'm doing. I am greatful to have Rebecca to help me through my difficult times and uncertainties.
