Rebecca Bauman-Garzon, LMHC - Therapist in Port Orange, FL

Introduction

Hi, I'm Rebecca, a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and Qualified Supervisor with a passion for helping individuals and couples overcome life's challenges. I obtained my Master's degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Nova Southeastern University, where I honed my skills and knowledge in the field. I specialize in working with both individuals and couples, providing a safe, affirming, and supportive environment to navigate life's transitions and stressors. I am deeply committed to serving the LGBTQIA+ population, offering specialized, identity-affirming care to help clients navigate gender identity, transition milestones, and unique societal or relational stressors. In my work with couples, I utilize the research-backed Gottman Method to help partners strengthen intimacy, resolve deep-rooted conflict, and build a lasting foundation of shared meaning. For individuals, I draw upon Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) techniques to help clients of all ages overcome anxiety, depression, and addiction. I firmly believe in the power of self-care and prioritize its importance in maintaining overall well-being. My motto is "Self-care is not selfish," and I strive to instill this mindset in my clients. Together, we can work towards creating a therapeutic alliance built on trust, compassion, and empowerment, enabling you to confidently confront and manage life's stressors.

What can I expect in my first few sessions with?

We will explore your background including your family/social history, your self-care regimen and then we will map out your goals.

What makes you different from other therapists?

I like to focus on your well-being first before we deep dive into how to tackle your goals. Your self-care is the most important thing. My motto is "Self-Care is not Selfish"

What inspired you to become a therapist?

My passion for wanting to become a therapist stems from my own experience in counseling as a teenager. I had an amazing therapist and I wanted to be able to pass on her words of wisdom while helping to guide others to positive self love with healthy boundaries.
