I am a licensed clinical social worker. I also have a doctorate degree in philosophy with an emphasis on social work practice. I have over a decade of experience working in the mental health field assisting individuals of all ages with a wide range of concerns (e.g., anxiety, depression, bipolar disorders, emotional/behavioral challenges, attachment or parenting concerns, etc.).
I believe that there is not a one-size-fits all type of treatment and that it is important to tailor services to fit each individual. Therefore, I use a client-centered approach while utilizing a variety of therapeutic techniques to address the presenting concerns. These clinical approaches include cognitive behavioral, psycho-educational, mindfulness, attachment therapy, and more.
I look forward to working with you!

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Dr. Rebecca Wiersma. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
She’s great. Rebecca has been a huge part of my mental heath for a couple years now and I would recommend anyone get involved with someone like her in their journey of self discovery

I have been incredibly supportive of Dr. Wiersma’s support. I appreciate her text check-in, too!!

She is very good when you are talking to her during a session on the phone, and presumably during a video call as well. However, she comes off a bit detached in her texts. Although she does check in on you every couple of days, which is nice of her to do.
