Becca has been with Improving Lives Counseling Services for over 10 years. She began her journey in administration and, with the encouragement and support of the CEO, decided to return to school. Becca earned her Bachelor of Science in Social Sciences from St. Gregory’s University and her Master of Arts in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from the University of the Cumberlands. During the COVID shutdown, she completed her internship at Improving Lives Counseling Services, where she discovered her passion for working with children.
Currently, Becca is working on her Registered Play Therapy certification. She specializes in child-centered play therapy but will use a variety of therapeutic approaches, including non-directive and directive play therapy, sand tray, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) depending on the client’s needs. Becca helps children with issues such as anxiety, emotional dysregulation, attachment, adoption, ADHD, self-esteem, bullying, and depression. Becca is LGBTQ+ friendly and, while she has experience with individuals of all ages, she prefers working with children 10 years old or younger due to the limited number of professionals that work with young children.
