Rebekka Matthews,

Hello, I’m Rebekka Matthews, LSW (she/her)!

“True healing happens when we allow ourselves to feel, to grow, and to believe in our ability to rise above the pain” – Rebekka Matthews.

I believe the journey toward healing and growth is deeply personal and unique for each individual. I’m here to provide compassionate support as you navigate that journey, helping you uncover resilience and empowerment along the way.

My Background

I was born in Pennsylvania and raised in Florida. I have traveled and lived in several states before returning to Pennsylvania, where I now reside and raise my family. I earned my Bachelor’s in Social Work from Limestone University and my Master’s in Social Work from Walden University.

How I Can Help You

I counsel teens (13+), young adults, and adults for a variety of mental health challenges, including caregiver stress, disordered eating, panic, substance use, hyperactivity, anxiety, relationships, attachment issues, borderline personality disorder, body image, chronic pain, trauma & PTSD, suicidal ideation & self-harm, spirituality, sexual abuse, perinatal, motherhood, OCD, LGBTQIA+ issues, and self-esteem.

Trauma-Informed Specialty

I am deeply passionate about trauma-informed care, understanding that trauma manifests differently in each person. I am committed to helping you explore your healing journey, acknowledging that this path may look different for everyone. My experience spans inpatient and outpatient settings, allowing me to offer diverse perspectives and support.

My Training for Therapy

I utilize my experience and training in therapy, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Couples Counseling, DBT-Informed Therapy, Narrative, Panic Disorder, Positive Psychology, and Strength-Based therapy.

A Little About Me

I feel most at peace connecting with nature, whether feeling the wind in my hair or the earth beneath my feet. I enjoy hiking, capturing photos of the beauty I find along the way, and spending time outdoors. In addition to my love for nature, I’m passionate about creative expression through writing, journaling, and poetry.

There’s something beautiful about painting thoughts and emotions onto paper, allowing words to flow and reflect our innermost experiences. Writing has always been a therapeutic outlet for me—a way to make sense of life’s challenges and joys.

Thank you for visiting my page and learning about my professional and personal life. I look forward to the opportunity to learn about and work with you.
