"Connect. Heal. Become . We Can Do This Together."

Welcome!


"There is no place, so awake and alive as the edge of becoming."
- Sue Monk Kidd

I’m glad you found your way here. Many people arrive at therapy feeling anxious, stuck in familiar relationship patterns, or disconnected from parts of themselves. Taking this step reflects courage and a deep desire to reconnect with your own emotional life.

In a safe, compassionate, and collaborative space, we’ll explore your emotions, gently process pain, and uncover the resilience, vitality, and hope that have always been part of you. This is a place to feel seen, supported, and ready to move toward healing, growth, and emotional transformation.


You Want to Feel Better in Your Relationships

You might recognize yourself in questions like these:

• Do you struggle to maintain close relationships?

• Does emotional connection sometimes feel uncomfortable or confusing?

• Are your emotions difficult to access or understand?

• Is it hard to receive care, kindness, or compliments from others?

• Do you find yourself battling low self-esteem or self-criticism?

• Do past experiences or trauma keep showing up in your relationships?

When Insight Isn't Enough

AEDP can be especially helpful if you:

• understand yourself intellectually but still feel stuck

• tend to analyze or think about emotions rather than feel them

• hold stress or tension in your body

• feel alone in your struggles despite appearing capable to others

• struggle with imposter syndrome or persistent self-doubt

• long for deeper change rather than coping strategies alone

• notice attachment wounds or relational patterns that repeat

From Suffering to Flourishing with AEDP

AEDP is based on the understanding that people have a natural capacity to heal and grow—a process called transformance.

Even after painful experiences, this capacity remains. In a safe and supportive therapeutic relationship, emotional experiences can be explored and understood in new ways. As emotions are processed and integrated, people often begin to feel more connected to themselves, more resilient, and more able to live and relate with authenticity.

If you’re feeling curious about working together—or simply wondering if therapy might help—you’re welcome to reach out. You don’t need to have everything figured out to begin. Therapy often starts with a simple conversation about what you’re experiencing and whether this work might be a good fit for you.

Who I Am

Welcome. I’m Rebecca Thompson. I help women and men move toward more authentic connection with themselves and others. Many people come to therapy feeling alone, overwhelmed by emotions, or disconnected from them entirely. You may find yourself staying busy, distracting yourself with work or your phone, or trying to make sense of feelings that seem confusing or hard to access. If this resonates with you, you are in the right place.

I am an AEDP therapist, and my approach is warm, engaging, and collaborative. Together we will explore your emotional experiences and work through difficult moments in ways that help you reconnect with your strengths and resilience. I often invite feedback about how you are experiencing our work together so we can continually adjust the process in ways that best support your growth.

I was drawn to becoming a therapist through my own life experiences—some painful and some deeply connected and safe. Being actively engaged in the process of becoming continues to enliven and inspire my work.

I remember as a child riding in the car and watching people in the cars passing by. On one particular trip, I smiled at a woman driving beside me. She smiled back with such genuine warmth that something stayed with me. For the rest of that trip, I smiled at each person I could make eye contact with. What I couldn’t fully articulate then, but understood experientially, was the powerful impact that simple moments of human connection can have.

Through my own experiences of being understood, accepted, and supported in times of emotional distress, I came to see the healing power of therapy differently than I did earlier in my career. Experiential and relational therapy creates the conditions where meaningful transformation can occur. Within that kind of space, people often rediscover their own capacity for healing, growth, and becoming.

I also welcome therapists seeking their own therapy or consultation in experiential and relational approaches.

I look forward to connecting with you and accompanying you on your journey.
