Rebecca Hackett, LPC

Rebecca Hackett is a South Carolina Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 26 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, and addictions. Rebecca focuses on practical steps that help people function better day to day while also addressing deeper, underlying issues.

She listens for patterns that come from earlier life experiences, such as childhood invalidation, abuse, or chaotic family dynamics. Rebecca helps people name how those past events show up now. She aims to reduce symptoms like mood shifts, anger, and sleep problems while also pursuing longer term change.

Her approach blends several evidence-informed methods, including cognitive behavioral strategies, acceptance and commitment ideas, dialectical skills, mindfulness, and EMDR. In sessions she balances immediate coping tools with work on root causes so people feel steadier and more able to meet daily demands.

Rebecca has helped people with a wide range of concerns across careers and life stages. Her additional focus areas include codependency, caregiver stress, attachment wounds, substance and alcohol issues, relationship and communication problems, and coping with major life changes.

She encourages an ongoing, collaborative relationship. Progress is checked and the plan is adjusted as needs change. Rebecca invites prospective clients to consider what small, manageable changes would make life feel easier and more meaningful.

How Rebecca’s approaches translate to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, focuses on clarifying what matters most to a person and taking small, values-based steps. It helps with anxiety, depression, and motivation when life feels stuck. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors link together and teaches practical strategies to change unhelpful patterns. It suits worries, mood problems, and sleep issues. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, DBT, offers skills for managing intense emotions, improving distress tolerance, and handling conflict more effectively.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Rebecca collaborates with each person to pick methods that match their needs, goals, and day-to-day realities. She adjusts plans as progress and priorities change, so the therapy fits the person rather than forcing a single model.

If you are considering online work, confirm the specific session formats Rebecca currently offers before booking. Many people find online sessions help fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and make it easier to attend brief check-ins between obligations. Online sessions can also allow flexibility in scheduling around work or caregiving duties, and they still permit hands-on skill practice and structured EMDR processing when appropriate.
