About Becky
Becky Todaro is a licensed professional counselor who helps people handle stress, anxiety, depression, and parenting concerns. She works with individuals facing relationship strain, trauma and abuse, and problems with self-esteem and motivation. Becky speaks plainly and focuses on practical steps people can use right away.
Becky believes each person knows their own story and brings strengths into therapy. She uses that knowledge to build plans that fit daily life.
Background and approach
Her style is collaborative - she listens first, then offers tools a person can try between sessions. Over 24 years in practice in Louisiana, Becky has supported people through grief, addictions, bipolar mood challenges, career transitions, and major life changes. Her work also includes attention to attachment, abandonment, body image, codependency, and communication problems.
She draws on multiple approaches to meet different needs. In sessions Becky may combine client-centered conversations with skills-based tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and emotion-focused techniques. She also uses elements from dialectical behavior therapy and Jungian ideas when they fit a person’s goals.
The aim is practical relief and clearer thinking, not technical jargon. Becky offers in-person and online formats that suit busy lives. She helps people set small, achievable goals and track progress.
For someone worried about parenting or emotional overwhelm, she provides steady, straightforward support.

How Becky uses therapy approaches online
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and building on a person’s strengths. It involves open questions and reflective listening to help someone clarify goals and feel understood. This approach is useful for people facing parenting challenges, low self-esteem, or uncertainty about next steps.Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions. Becky may teach simple skills to change unhelpful thinking and to try new behaviors that can reduce anxiety and improve mood. CBT works well for stress, anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes.
Dialectical behavior therapy, DBT, adds practical skills for managing intense emotions and improving communication. It can help with impulsivity, anger, and relationship problems through mindfulness, emotion regulation, and distress tolerance practices.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Becky will listen to your concerns, discuss options, and help decide which methods match your goals and preferences. That way the work fits your situation and feels realistic.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls let you see facial cues and do deeper work. Phone sessions are good for shorter check-ins or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging work for quick updates, tracking homework, or when writing helps you organize thoughts. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life while still getting structured support from a licensed professional.
