Rebecca Lukomski, LPC

Milwaukee expert in OCD, anxiety, ERP and CBT.

From a young age, I found deep meaning in supporting others through their challenges. I quickly came to understand the profound power of trust within a relationship—and how healing can happen when someone feels truly seen and safe. Becoming a therapist felt like a natural path, one rooted in empathy and connection.

Struggling with OCD or anxiety can feel like you're constantly battling your own mind. I understand how isolating and overwhelming that experience can be—and I am here to help you navigate it with clarity, support, and expert guidance.

Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of helping hundreds of individuals gain mastery over their symptoms and move toward lives filled with meaning, purpose, and freedom. Whether you’re dealing with OCD, panic attacks, social anxiety, phobias, or body-focused repetitive behaviors, my approach is designed to help you build the tools you need to regain control and move forward with confidence.

Treatment Approach

Milwaukee expert in OCD, anxiety, ERP and CBT.

Rebecca offers a warm, collaborative, and evidence-based approach to treating OCD and anxiety-related disorders. Her goal is to help you feel supported while taking meaningful steps toward change.

Rebecca’s work is always trauma-informed, meaning she’s mindful of your emotional safety and past experiences. She sees each client as a whole person—not just a diagnosis—and builds treatment plans that reflect your goals, strengths, and lived experiences.

Rebecca balances open, conversational sessions with targeted, effective strategies. Therapy with her is not just about talking—it's about learning practical tools, challenging unhelpful patterns, and building resilience over time. You'll work together in a way that feels supportive, focused, and tailored to your unique needs.

Evidence-Based Treatments

Rebecca’s approach integrates several gold-standard treatment models:

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): Helps identify and reframe anxious thoughts and behaviors.

  • Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP): A core component of OCD treatment, ERP gradually exposes you to feared situations while reducing compulsive responses.

  • Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) Skills: Supports emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and mindfulness.

  • Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT): Encourages action aligned with your values—even in the presence of anxiety or discomfort.
