About Rebecca

Rebecca Kinnunen is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) in Wisconsin with 17 years of experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, family conflict, anger, and life changes. Rebecca approaches each person with respect and compassion. She aims to create a calm space where people can talk through what matters to them.

Rebecca believes clients are the experts on their own lives. She looks for strengths a person already has and builds on them. Sessions focus on clear goals and steps people can use between meetings. Rebecca supports people as they try new ways of coping and communicating.

Her work covers a wide range of concerns including aging and geriatric issues, blended family challenges, body image, codependency, commitment issues, communication problems, substance concerns, guilt and shame, jealousy, women’s issues, workplace stress, and young adult challenges. She helps people sort out tangled emotions and practical problems. The goal is to make progress that feels useful in daily life.

Rebecca keeps a direct and steady approach in sessions. She listens, offers feedback, and helps people test different strategies. Many clients come for short-term focused work and others for longer changes over time. People who want a respectful, strengths-based collaborator may find her style a good fit.

How evidence-based techniques guide online care

Rebecca practices with evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change. One common approach helps people identify unhelpful patterns in thinking and behavior and test new ways of reacting; this is useful for anxiety, stress, and coping with life transitions. Another approach centers on improving communication and problem-solving in relationships, which can help with conflict, blended family issues, and workplace interactions.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. Together they set small, achievable steps and review what is working as therapy progresses.

The biography does not specify which session formats are used, so confirm current online or in-person options before booking. Many people find that fitting sessions into a weekday break or scheduling shorter check-ins makes therapy easier to keep up with. Online work can make it simpler to balance appointments with work and family life, reduce travel time, and focus on skill practice between sessions.
