Life isn’t always easy. Sometimes, even the strongest people amongst us need a little bit of help to work through some of life’s more challenging problems. Everyone has battles to fight and hurdles to overcome at some point. Whether you struggle with anxiety, depression, self-esteem, or any other issue, you should know that there is hope for a better tomorrow.
"You don't have to get stuck in a negative experience. You don't have to be a victim to external events, or internal emotions. You can use your mind to take charge of how you feel, and how you act."
-Dan Siegel

Rebecca (Beckie) Lyman, LCSW
Hello, my name is Rebecca Lyman and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with a
Bachelor’s Degree in Elementary Education and a Masters of Social Work. I enjoy working with
teens, adults and couples. I have a wide variety of experience working with clients with anxiety,
depression, personality disorders and more.
I strive to encourage others to find a place of peace, understanding and growth. I have a passion
for encouraging others to reach beyond their situation to achieve the most potential that they are
capable of in their own lives.
Through my own experiences, I was able to find the resiliency and strength through many
adversities in my own life. Because of these challenges, it has inspired me to help others in their
lives as well.
I utilize a blend of Cognitive Behavioral, Motivational Interviewing, Solution Focused, Narrative
Therapy, and Psycho-Education to individuals. My theory is individuals who have the motivation
to improve and courage to seek growth through vulnerability and hard work can accomplish all
the goals they desire
