IMPORTANT MESSAGE: Due to my possibly needing surgery, my FSA Recovery Consultation waiting list now CLOSED – You are invited to check back here again in January 2026 to see if my waiting list is open. Are you a financial supporter of my Healing the Scapegoat Wound Substack? Please let me know this when you email me as you will be prioritized on my waiting list. Scroll down for details on fees.
New to my work on Family Scapegoating Abuse (FSA)? I encourage you to read my book, ‘REJECTED, SHAMED, AND BLAMED‘.
The Benefits of a Consultation With Me
I am the leading world expert on the insidious phenomenon I named ‘Family Scapegoating Abuse’ (FSA). FSA is now a recognized term in Mental Health and Academic settings worldwide. My Trauma-informed and Family Systems-informed approach to FSA Recovery is informed by 15 years of qualitative and quantitative (peer-reviewed) research and my experience working with hundreds of FSA survivors in my private practice as a trauma-informed recovery coach. I am also an FSA survivor myself and I know how deeply devastating FSA dynamics can be. A consultation with me ensures that you are provided with clinically sound information from an accredited expert, targeted feedback, meaningful insights, helpful suggestions, and resources and recommendations specific to your personal and/or professional needs.
SESSION FEES (2025): A 60 minute consultation is $300.00. A 90 minute consultation is $400.00. Currently, there may be a two to three (or more) month wait before I can get you scheduled. Please note I am seeing clients as a trauma-informed (certified) coach – not as a licensed clinician. Members of my Substack community who currently make monthly or annual subscription gifts (donations) are prioritized when booking sessions and receive a discount.

ATTENTION CLINICIANS: APA FINALLY RELEASES COMPLEX TRAUMA TREATMENT GUIDELINES
I have been wanting to thank you for your help. While I came to you wanting to work on scapegoating–which we did–we also explored the many challenges of being an associate mental health professional working in a community setting. Your support and gentle nudge led me to work at two group practices. I grew SO much since we last met. I have received numerous unsolicited positive feedback from clients, supervisors, trainers, and associate peers. Very soon, I will be licensed and in private practice. Without your support, I probably would have not felt knowledgeable enough or confident enough to make this career pivot as an associate. Thank you for helping me push through the hesitation. I truly believe I have found my calling, and I wouldn’t be where I am right now without you.
– E.L. Registered Associate Clinical Social Worker
As a licensed clinician working with adult children from dysfunctional families, I’ve benefited so much from reading your book (Rejected, Shamed, and Blamed), as well as from watching your YouTube videos, especially your clinical series. I took the leap to schedule a consultation with you when I realized I wanted to help FSA survivors like myself. I got so much out our time together, Rebecca. I felt more confident and even more excited to serve this population and I also understand the skills I will need to develop to be more fully trauma-informed, which is so important when dealing with Family Scapegoating Abuse-effected adult survivors. Looking forward to our next meeting, thank you again, Rebecca!
