Rebecca Thierfelder, LCSW

Rebecca Thierfelder is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Wisconsin. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma, low self-esteem, and depression. She uses a direct but warm style, often bringing gentle humor to sessions to ease tension and encourage new perspectives.

Rebecca has worked in community mental health settings across many areas of care. That background means she has helped people with motivation, confidence, coping after loss, and navigating major life changes. She draws on multiple ways of working so each plan fits the person in front of her.

In session she is both validating and gently challenging. Conversations focus on breaking emotional stuck points and building practical steps forward. Rebecca blends individual and group approaches when those formats are helpful.

She has practiced for 11 years as an LCSW and has experience using Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. Those techniques are used flexibly to match a client’s values and goals.

Rebecca offers weekday evening and some weekend live sessions and provides messaging between meetings. She aims to reply to messages within 24 hours between live sessions. People who want support with jealousy-related concerns can explore those themes in therapy as part of broader work on trust, boundaries, and self-worth.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online

Rebecca often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thinking and try small behavior changes. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, and stress because it links thoughts and actions in clear steps.

She also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication. Those skills are practical tools for intense feelings and relationship strain. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy is used to help people clarify values and take manageable actions toward a more meaningful life.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss options and try methods that fit the client’s goals and preferences. Adjustments are made as needed so the work stays relevant and useful.

Session formats are not fully specified here, so confirm current options before booking. In practice, online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow brief check-ins when needed. Messaging between sessions can help carry momentum, while live sessions provide focused time to practice skills and plan next steps.
