Hi, I'm Rebecca Goldstein
MSW RSW MTA
Founder & Therapist at TuneInTherapy
REAL TALK. REAL CHANGE.
Therapy with presence, creativity, and authenticity.
Therapy isn't about becoming someone different. It's about feeling safe enough to become more fully yourself.
A Therapist Who Gets It
I know what it’s like to feel misunderstood while trying to hold everything together.
Before I became a therapist, I served as a musician with the Canadian Armed Forces, performed internationally, and later built multiple creative businesses.
Those experiences taught me what pressure, performance, and perseverance can cost — and how creativity, humour, and connection can heal.
As a Registered Social Worker (MSW RSW) and Accredited Music Therapist (MTA), I integrate psychotherapy, neuroscience, and the arts to support clients who need more than traditional talk therapy.
My Therapeutic Perspective
Therapy with me:
I’m late-identified ADHD and Autistic (AuDHD), and that lived experience deeply shapes my work.
I understand the mental gymnastics of masking, the fatigue of chronic hyper-vigilance, and the relief of finally being understood.
-
Neurodivergent-affirming & trauma-informed
-
Creative & evidence-based, blending science with art
-
Relational & collaborative — we decide together what works
-
Realistic & adaptive, because life is messy and healing is non-linear
What It's Like To Work With Me
People often tell me they feel relieved after our first session—not because everything is suddenly "fixed," but because they finally feel understood.
You don't have to know exactly what's wrong before reaching out.
Some sessions involve practical strategies. Others explore long-standing patterns or difficult experiences. Sometimes we laugh. Sometimes we sit quietly.
We move at a pace that feels safe for your nervous system while working toward meaningful, lasting change.
Whether you're feeling overwhelmed, burned out, stuck, or simply exhausted from holding everything together, we'll work collaboratively to help you understand what's happening and build a life that feels more manageable and more like your own

Why did I start TuneIn Therapy?
After years in clinical and arts settings, I wanted to create a space that felt different —
a place where you could show up unmasked, unfiltered, and un-judged.
A place where therapy feels human, not clinical.
Where music, creativity, and science work together to help you find grounding and growth.
