Rebekah Messenger, LPC, MT-BC
Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP)
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Board-Certified Music Therapist with over twelve years of clinical experience. Over the years, I have supported children, adolescents, adults, couples, and families through unique challenges. Utilizing a trauma-informed approach, I have supported individuals with anxiety, depression, mood disorders, special needs, out-of-home placement, forensic care, geriatric care, and end-of-life considerations. All my experiences have illustrated not only the perseverance of human nature, but also the potential growth and healing one can achieve at any age.
I began my studies at Seton Hill University where I earned my Bachelor of Music, concentrating in Music Therapy. After earning my Music Therapy Board Certification (MT-BC) I went on to study at Temple University. There I received my Master of Music Therapy, while taking extra studies in counseling so that I might earn my LPC. Along the way, I completed additional training in Trauma, Yoga and Reiki. I am a certified clinical trauma professional. I am a Certified Yoga Teacher through the Pranakriya School of Yoga Healing Arts and Reiki Level III with the Usui System of Natural Healing. I am most recently trained in DBT working towards certification.
As your therapist, we will work together to explore the matters currently affecting your efforts towards your highest potential for well-being. My sessions are shaped by my client-centered and existential orientation; you will be provided a non-judgmental, respectful, and empathic space in which to explore, challenge and actualize your goals. I look forward to assisting you along your journey.
