Rebecca is a member of the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She describes counselling as a place to talk about past and present problems and to work toward real change.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on what matters to each person and are paced to match how comfortable they feel. Her approach blends client-centred listening with cognitive-behavioural and acceptance-based techniques. She also draws on attachment-focused ideas and elements of dialectical behaviour therapy when helpful.
The aim is to use whatever fits the person rather than force a single method. Rebecca takes a holistic view and looks at emotional, social and physical factors that affect wellbeing. She has worked with people facing bereavement, complex anxiety, ADHD and eating difficulties, among other concerns.
That background informs how she plans sessions and sets goals. Sessions are offered to individuals aged 16 and over. Rebecca aims to create a non-judgemental space where people can speak honestly and try new ways of coping.
The emphasis is on practical steps and steady progress rather than quick fixes.

Sessions & fees
Approaches that translate well to online counselling
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, ACT, focuses on helping people notice difficult thoughts and feelings and make choices that match their values. It can help with anxiety, depression and coping with life changes by teaching practical exercises to stay engaged with what matters.Client-Centred Therapy puts the person's own goals and experience at the centre of sessions. The therapist listens without judgement and helps the person find their own solutions, which can be useful for self-esteem, relationship concerns and grief.
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, CBT, looks at links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour and teaches skills to change unhelpful patterns. It is often used for anxiety, low mood, sleep problems and some eating-related issues.
Finding the right approach is a team effort. Rebecca will work collaboratively to identify which methods fit the client's needs, goals and preferences and will adapt techniques as progress is made.
Online therapy with video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging gives flexibility for different routines. Video sessions allow face-to-face interaction, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat works for shorter check-ins and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, parenting and everyday life.
