Becca hopes to create an environment where we can reflect on the ways we have survived, especially through traumatic experiences, and how to shift patterns or build off of existing tools to serve us more fully in the present, often being curious with the ways cultural, environmental and systemic factors have impacted us. They practice from an anti-oppressive, strengths-based approach, and believe it is necessary for the therapeutic space to be collaborative. She strives to be authentic and empathetic, utilizing a direct, humorous and inviting approach.

In their free time, Becca enjoys spending time with her loved ones (including their numerous pets!), adding to her collections, discovering new music, playing games, trying new recipes, and gardening or being in nature.
