Hi, my name is Rebecka and I enjoy being a therapist!

I received a bachelor's degree from the University of Utah with a double major in psychology and human development and a Master's degree in social work from Brigham Young University (because humans are fascinating). I have worked in a wide variety of settings and finally settled into private practice in sunny Arizona. I love road trips, being near the ocean and rainy days (the first allows me to get the second and third).
