Rebecca Poladian

Rebecca Poladian is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania with 20 years of experience in mental health care. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, addiction, and trauma. Rebecca also supports those dealing with relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting strain, career shifts, and compassion fatigue.

Her approach treats each person as a partner. She values individuality and avoids one-size-fits-all plans. Rebecca looks at a person’s motivation and readiness for change when planning sessions.

Rebecca draws on several practical methods during sessions. She uses client-centered listening to understand what matters most. Cognitive behavioral techniques help people notice and change patterns that keep them stuck. Emotionally-focused ideas are used to clarify and shift difficult feelings in relationships.

She has worked with a wide age range and across many concerns, including aging and geriatric issues, cancer and caregiver stress, blended family challenges, and fertility-related distress. Rebecca also supports people coping with natural or human-caused disasters and those facing co-occurring issues such as eating or substance concerns.

Rebecca invites people who are ready to take steps toward wellbeing. She aims to make sessions practical, clear, and focused on small, doable changes. If someone wants a collaborating guide who listens first and works toward workable solutions, Rebecca offers that steady presence.

How Rebecca’s Approaches Work Online

Rebecca often uses client-centered approaches that start with listening and reflecting what matters most to a person. This helps form goals that feel relevant and practical. She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and to build small, manageable changes that reduce symptoms like anxiety or sleep problems.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Rebecca will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. She checks in as the work progresses and adjusts the focus when needed so the plan stays useful and realistic.

Please confirm the therapist's available session formats before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, such as taking a shorter check-in during a lunch break or avoiding travel time. They can also allow sessions when transportation or scheduling would otherwise be a barrier. Licensed professionals can use these ways of working to keep progress steady and practical without promising a specific outcome.
