Rebecca Slaymaker
Compassionate practical counselling for life challenges
About Rebecca
Rebecca Slaymaker uses a person-centred approach to help people feel heard and understood. She offers short, focused therapy that aims to reduce stress and anxiety and to build confidence. Rebecca works in English and practices from the United Kingdom with five years of experience as an NCPS counsellor.
Rebecca adapts sessions to each person's needs. She blends client-centred listening with practical techniques from cognitive behavioural therapy. That mix is useful for tackling low mood, anxiety, unhelpful thinking, and day-to-day coping skills.
Background and approach
She also draws on mindfulness to help people notice thoughts and feelings without judgement. Hypnotherapy is available when clients want to work on deep-seated habits or motivation. Psychodynamic ideas are used to help understand repeated patterns and early attachments.
Rebecca is used to supporting people through grief, relationship strain, work stress, and life transitions. She helps with issues such as addictions, self-esteem, career concerns, and feeling isolated. Additional areas of focus include attachment difficulties, autism and Asperger syndrome, blended family issues, body image, and caregiver stress.
Sessions are personalised and practical. Rebecca aims to set small, achievable goals and to review progress regularly. She treats people with warmth and respect and supports them as they make changes at their own pace.

How Rebecca’s approaches work online
Rebecca uses client-centred therapy to create a respectful, non-judgemental space where people can talk at their own pace. This approach focuses on active listening and reflecting back what matters to the person, which helps with issues like low self-esteem, grief, and relationship worries.She also uses cognitive behavioural therapy, which looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. CBT offers practical tools for managing anxiety, depression, and unhelpful habits by testing unhelpful thoughts and trying new behaviours.
Finding the right method is part of the work. Rebecca will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and will try approaches that match those needs. Decisions about methods are made together and reviewed as progress is tracked.
Online sessions can be scheduled as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat and messaging suit brief check-ins or days when writing feels better. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caring duties, or busy days while keeping the focus on practical progress.
