When my clients takes the first step towards healing, they are often unsure about what they want, what they will talk about, or how they will ever get there. Taking that first step to get help is commendable. As a Mayo Clinic trained clinician, I am here to support them on their journey to a happier, healthier life. Those who see me most often are adults with mood disorders, anxiety, OCD, or stress. I also specialize in teens struggling with Anxiety, OCD, and Depression and men who are navigating areas of stress in their roles, relationships, and/or career. Together, we build a foundation for lasting emotional growth and well-being.

So nice to meet you! My name is Rebecca Prust, and I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker. I am passionate about supporting people to live their best lives. I will meet you where you are and at your pace we will work through things. I enjoy working in the areas of anxiety/depression, life changes, OCD, caregiver support, and relationships. I work from an integrative therapy approach and believe that good therapy is driven by a person's unique needs. Using cognitive-behavioral, psychodynamic, and holistic approaches to change any life can be different.

I derive joy and meaning from helping people access their brilliant capacities for healing. My specialties are couples therapy, anxiety/OCD, chronic illness, recovery from relationship abuse, and adjustment through other changes.

Even in the midst of distress and doubt, the possibilities for the journey hold so much hope.

Healing immensely personal, often secret and shameful struggles with body hate, bingeing, purging, restricting, and other related behaviors takes courage and commitment. You may want to change, or have begun the recovery process, but also feel ambivalent and fearful about how and what it means to recover. If this resonates, you are not alone. Recovery is possible and finding peace with food, mind, and body is worth the arduous journey-whether this is your first attempt at treatment or you have completed multiple treatments. I also help caregivers in their role supporting a loved one with an eating disorder.

There are times when we all need someone to listen, understand, and help us see things in a new way. Anxiety, depression, obsessive thoughts, anger issues, troubled relationships, life transitions, and so much more can make life feel overwhelming. Whether you're looking for some strategies you can apply right away, or a non-judgmental space to talk about what you've experienced, I would love to walk with you on your path to freedom.
