Ms. Rebecca Sidoti LCSW

First sessions can feel intimidating, but rest assured knowing that I will make every effort to create a comfortable, relaxing and open environment. You can see on our website at www.MindbyDesignLLC.com our various approaches to telehealth therapy. The dreaded paperwork review takes place during this session, but typically takes only about 5 minutes. Then we move on to the real reason we're here- the therapy ! I try to steer away from generic questions and instead encourage new clients to tell me their story and get an idea of who they really are. This helps us to create what I like to call your "blueprint"; the fundamental things about you that, together, we will build upon in therapy. In the 60-90 minutes the first session takes, I work with you to get a few clear focus points in place so that we can begin building a treatment plan that is tailored to your individual needs. Then poof- before you know it, the first session is complete and we are ready to schedule a follow up for the next week!

Hi! My name is Rebecca and I am a licensed therapist here in New Jersey. I have worked in the mental health field since 2014 and began practicing clinical work in 2016. I worked in community mental health serving children and families in the foster care system, focusing most of my clinical work on trauma, anxiety and attachment. In 2019 I focused my clinical research, development and practice on the treatment of anxiety-related disorders, specifically Phobias, Panic Disorder and Obsessive Compulsive Disorder. I am one of the few providers in New Jersey that also offers Virtual Reality Therapy. This is a uniques and super effective treatment support that I have been using for a little over a year. This unique therapy allows clients to use a VR headset to engage in virtual immersions, overcome fears, enhance focus and practice relaxation skills-- right from home! I love working with individuals who are ready to explore all of the benefits from therapy and reclaim their mental health!
