Rebecca Lammersen (she/her) is an Arizona Licensed Associate Counselor (LAC – 21131). Rebecca’s lifelong passion for health and wellness led her to a career as a therapeutic yoga teacher. She founded and operated a boutique yoga studio integrating complementary therapeutic and rehabilitative movement modalities. After many years in practice, she decided that becoming a therapist would expand the effectiveness of her work and ability to support others on their life’s journey through the integration of talk therapy, body awareness exercises, mindfulness and intuitive movement. The somatic work she facilitates continues to reaffirm the understanding that the body, mind and heart are inherently connected; the memories of our life experiences and the emotions connected to them are stored within our bodies. The blending of talk therapy, body awareness and intuitive movement promotes healing while building the confidence and skills to cope with what life presents along the way.
Rebecca received her Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from the University of Arizona and earned her Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Grand Canyon University. She is trained in Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT). Through her own life experiences and a solution-focused, strengths-based lens, she welcomes individuals, couples, adolescents and families. Rebecca’s scope of practice encompasses life transitions, grief and loss, separation and divorce, parenting/co-parenting, mindful family blending, survivors of suicide, individuals who are coping with chronic pain, illness and degenerative diseases, caregivers and partners of loved ones with chronic pain, illness and degenerative diseases, parents and siblings of individuals (adolescents and adults) with special needs, intimacy and sexual concerns, anxiety, fears, phobias and depression.
Rebecca’s mission in life is to create and hold a safe, trust-filled space where everyone who enters feels understood, seen, heard, accepted and loved.
“Love is the only way to grasp another human being in the innermost core of his personality. No one can become fully aware of the very essence of another human being unless he loves him. By his love he is enabled to see the essential traits and features in the beloved person; and even more, he sees that which is potential in him, which is not yet actualized but yet ought to be actualized. Furthermore, by his love, the loving person enables the beloved person to actualize these potentialities. By making him aware of what he can be and of what he should become, he makes these potentialities come true.” ― Viktor E. Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning
