MBCT Therapists in Anchorage, AK

CURRENTLY ACCEPTING WAITLIST CLIENTS Hey Survivor, are you tired of feeling guilty and overwhelmed all the time? Everyone else seems so together and you're stuck battling your past? I get it. My name is Rebecca Castle-Waller and I help badass women with trauma become present in their lives and in their relationships, so you can actually enjoy this life you've built. Many of my clients grew up in chaotic and unstable homes where from a young age they started taking care of others. Making meals, waking their parents up for work, getting their siblings off to school. From there, you went on to take care of your partner and your kiddos while also working hard to keep everything running smoothly. Now with work and relationships and family drama and life you feel constantly stressed out and like you should be doing more. Oh, and you're doing all of this while facing nightmares, flashbacks, numbness, random waves of anger, and the like. Who's taking care of you? Let's give you a space where you can be your messy, imperfect self so you can finally take care of you. It's time to heal your trauma, you've built an amazing life and you deserve to actually live it.

I assist adults in managing confusing emotions related to challenging life events, and away from negativity, to a more positive improved focus. The path to Emotional healing is Emotional Freedom leading to emotional wisdom. You will find the tools to better cope with symptoms related to anxiety, depression and unresolved conflicts.

We will delicately explore patterns held within the body to support emotional release, deeper self-understanding, and lasting healing.

What makes my practice unique is my compassionate, holistic approach—blending science-based hypnotherapy with faith-driven guidance to help you overcome challenges and deepen your spiritual connection. Whether you’re struggling with stress, anxiety, emotional eating, or seeking greater spiritual clarity and purpose, I provide a safe, non-judgmental space for transformation. Through the convenience of secure online sessions, you can experience powerful, lasting change—body, mind, and spirit—from anywhere. I also offer a free 10-minute phone consultation, allowing us both to connect and determine if we are the right fit for your journey. Take the first step toward healing and growth—contact me today and begin your journey to your best self.

Life transitions, emotional overwhelm, difficult relationships, and inner self-doubt can leave us feeling disconnected from ourselves and uncertain about the future. Many people come to me after years of trying to hold everything together while quietly struggling underneath the surface. You may appear “fine” on the outside while internally feeling emotionally exhausted, stuck, anxious, disconnected, or unsure of your next step. You don’t have to navigate that alone. I provide a compassionate, supportive, and judgment-free space where clients can slow down, gain clarity, process emotional challenges, and reconnect with themselves in a more grounded and authentic way. My coaching style is intuitive, practical, trauma-informed, and mindfulness-based. Together, we work to better understand the patterns, stress, beliefs, and life experiences that may be impacting your confidence, relationships, emotional well-being, or sense of direction. Whether you are navigating a life transition, relationship challenges, burnout, career uncertainty, or simply feeling lost or overwhelmed, my goal is to help you move forward with greater self-awareness, resilience, confidence, and inner balance. Meaningful change begins from the inside out—and you don’t have to have everything figured out before reaching out.

Anchorage is the most geographically isolated major city in the United States, and this isolation — combined with Alaska's extreme seasonal light variation — contributes to elevated rates of seasonal affective disorder, depression, and substance use that therapists here address as recurring priorities. The city has a significant Alaska Native and American Indian population, and therapists offering trauma-informed, culturally grounded care that engages with Indigenous mental health, subsistence culture, and historical trauma from colonial policies are an especially important part of the local landscape. Alaska Native Medical Center, Providence Alaska Medical Center, and Alaska Regional Hospital provide institutional mental health resources, while the private therapy community serves a population spread across a physically vast metropolitan area. Telehealth plays a critical access role for Anchorage residents and those across Alaska's broader geography seeking care beyond what is available locally.
