Rebecca Vanita Kunert, LMFT

Experience and training

As a therapist, I bring both experience and intuition to help you uncover the core of what’s holding you back. With warmth and active engagement, I ask thoughtful questions and offer practical coping strategies tailored to your needs. Most importantly, I create a supportive and safe space where you can explore even the most difficult or sensitive parts of your story—at your own pace and with compassion.

Clinical Experience

I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT 12,734). My Masters degree in Clinical Psychology was earned from John F Kennedy University (part of National University, Dec 2020). Licensed for over 30 years now, I have a strong foundation in traditional mental health including chemical dependency and 12 step programs. Currently, I utilize a growth perspective in counseling clients which includes the harm reduction model. I am able to quickly assess symptoms for concerns such as depression, anxiety, alcohol and drug problems. My specialty is relationship counseling with a focus on interactions between individuals while examining their context.

Employee Assistance Program (EAP) Experience

As the internal manager of the onsite corporate employee assistance program (EAP) for PG&E for 20 years, I learned to navigate a complex organizational culture. My experience of working with distressed employees, supervisors, and managers provides me quick assessment tools for pinpointing workplace concerns such as conflict with colleagues and managers. Crisis intervention and stress management were important features of my EAP role.
