Be easy. Take your time. You are coming home to yourself.

A little about me

I’m Rebekah (she/her)

I come from a lineage of poets, artists, and teachers, and I find resonance of all three in my own life and work. I also come from generational trauma, secrets, and pain. I know from personal experience what it is like to want and seek healing, and the courage & commitment that it requires. This has richly informed my therapeutic work, and I consider it a deep privilege to be with people in their own process.

  • Individual Therapy

    I work with adults ages 17+, in-person in my Seattle office.

    Scheduling: Sessions are held at a weekly rhythm, either once a week or bi-weekly. We can discuss what works best for you in our initial consult. Your session spot will be consistent for each scheduled session.

    Fees: My full fee is $150/session, paid at time of session or on a monthly basis.

    Insurance: I am in network with Premera and Lifewise. If I am out of network with your insurance, I offer a monthly superbill for submission to your insurance for partial reimbursement, depending on your out-of-network benefits.

  • Group Work

    I facilitate groups & intensives around the topics of religious trauma, life transitions, and grief. For more information about participating in a group, or to inquire about me facilitating your group or intensive, contact me at rebekah@heart-root.com. I love groups and find them be a unique way of healing and learning.
