About
Dr. Rebecca Boren is a licensed psychologist whose clinical background includes work in primary care and hospital-based settings, where she treated patients experiencing psychological distress alongside medical conditions and the prolonged exhaustion that comes with it.
Her work focuses on adults dealing with anxiety, chronic stress, grief, and life transitions, particularly when emotional symptoms intersect with physical strain, sleep disruption, or other long-standing challenges. She frequently works with patients whose tension has accumulated over time and is affecting daily functioning, relationships, or work capacity.
Dr. Boren’s training in integrated behavioral health informs a clinically grounded approach to treatment when emotional and physical concerns overlap. She regularly works with individuals adjusting to illness, caregiving demands, or prolonged difficulties that have altered their sense of stability.
She offers individual therapy for adults in Texas online and is also PSYPACT-authorized to provide telehealth in participating states.
