Rebecca Baker LPC-S, LPCC, SEP, CEDS-C

I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor and approved licensure supervisor (LPC-S #2011015154) in Missouri and Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor (LPCC #19238) in California, a certified Eating Disorder Specialist and Consultant (CEDS-C), and a Somatic Experiencing® Practitioner (SEP). With over 15 years of experience in the field, I specialize in working with individuals navigating eating disorders, trauma, body image distress, dissociation, and relational challenges.

From 2008 to 2021, I worked extensively across—residential, partial hospitalization (PHP), and intensive outpatient (IOP) levels of care of an eating disorder treatment center—holding leadership roles in clinical program development, operations, and regional oversight. I’ve also supervised numerous pre-licensed clinicians toward LPC licensure in Missouri and currently serve as a licensure supervisor in both MO and CA.

As the founding President of the St. Louis chapter of the International Association of Eating Disorder Professionals (iaedp), I helped foster a strong local community of professionals dedicated to eating disorder recovery. I’ve served as a teaching assistant with Somatic Experiencing International and bring a body-based, trauma-informed lens to my clinical work.

In addition to my clinical background, I served as the Senior Vice President of Development and Compliance for a California-based behavioral healthcare startup, where I helped launch 15 treatment sites across the state.

I’ve maintained a private practice since 2010 and am now focused exclusively on outpatient therapy, offering a safe and grounded space for healing and connection. My approach integrates Internal Family Systems (IFS), which I began studying in 2009 under the model’s founder, Dr. Richard Schwartz, along with EMDR (trained in 2014), and Somatic Experiencing (2018) to support holistic and sustainable recovery.

Above all, I’m passionate about helping people come home to themselves—working through the parts of life that feel overwhelming, stuck, or disconnected, with compassion and clarity.
