Rebecca Silverstein, LCSW
Brooklyn, NY | In-person + virtual therapyHello! Im So glad you’re here. I’m Rebecca, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 14 years of experience helping people work through trauma, addiction, relationships, and the patterns that often leave us feeling stuck.
I earned my Master’s in Social Work from NYU, and I’ve built my practice around one core belief: healing happens in relationship. My job isn’t to “fix” you; it’s to help you understand your story, process what you’ve been holding, and give you the tools that actually work in your life.
My approach combines clinical expertise with intentional connection. Our work might include EMDR, CBT, DBT, relational therapy, or a combination of all of them. It all depends on what YOU need, because everyone is different, and I keep that in mind with completely client-centered care.
