If you’re grieving in a way that others don’t understand, please know that you don’t have to suffer alone. I’m Rebecca Huval, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker based in Sacramento, CA, and I work with infertility, chronic illness, and ambiguous loss.
As a narrative therapist, I hope to offer you a space that’s warm, curious, and creative. My job is to help you rewrite the story of your life and discover your strength.
