About Rebecca

Rebecca Hackett is a licensed professional counselor in South Carolina who works with people navigating stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and a wide range of life challenges.

Background and approach

With 26 years of experience, she supports clients who are seeking relief from mood shifts, relationship strain, addictive behaviors, parenting stress, compassion fatigue, and other concerns that make daily life harder. Rebecca emphasizes helping clients build practical skills while also addressing deeper roots of long-standing patterns.

Her approach draws on evidence-based methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), EMDR, and mindfulness practices to tailor treatment to each person’s needs. She aims to combine symptom management with exploration of past experiences that continue to shape present reactions, guiding clients toward healthier relationships and greater day-to-day contentment.

Rebecca encourages an open, collaborative therapeutic relationship with regular check-ins and adjustments as progress and needs evolve. She welcomes clients who are ready to move from merely surviving to functioning more fully, offering guidance, skill-building, and compassionate support throughout the process.

Evidence-Informed Approaches for Online Care

Rebecca frequently draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help clients identify unhelpful thinking patterns and develop concrete skills for managing anxiety, depression, and everyday stress. CBT focuses on practical strategies and behavioral experiments that can produce noticeable changes in mood and functioning.

She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) tools to support emotional regulation and values-based action. ACT emphasizes accepting difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to meaningful goals, which can be helpful for coping with life changes and persistent distress. DBT offers skills for managing intense emotions, improving interpersonal effectiveness, and reducing impulsive behaviors.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work together with each client to explore goals, preferences, and the presenting concerns, then tailor a mix of methods that fits the person’s needs. Regular dialogue guides adjustments as therapy progresses so interventions remain useful and relevant.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to access care from wherever a client is located, support continuity when life gets busy, and allow for using practical CBT, ACT, or DBT exercises in real time between sessions.
