About Becky
Becky Prestwood is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Texas with 30 years of experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, anger, self-esteem problems, and the effects of trauma and abuse.
Becky focuses on practical skills people can use between sessions. She helps clients sort recurring patterns that began in childhood and continue to affect adult life. Sessions typically cover communication, motivation, and ways to manage strong emotions.
Her approach relies on evidence-based therapeutic techniques and motivational interviewing. That means sessions often include clear strategies, goal-setting, and guided conversations to shift unhelpful habits. She also addresses attachment and abandonment concerns when they are part of the problem.
Becky has long experience helping people with work stress, social anxiety, and relationship conflict. She also supports those coping with chronic illness, cancer, or aging-related concerns alongside mental health symptoms. Her work includes attention to co-occurring issues such as codependency and difficulty with control.
People who come to her can expect straightforward talk about what is getting in the way of change. Becky uses structured methods to build skills for communication, emotion regulation, and problem solving. To begin, clients complete a short questionnaire and schedule a first session so she can understand their immediate priorities.
