More about Rebecca
- 7 years' experience
- Female
- BACP
I am a professionally qualified counsellor in the United Kingdom, with 7 years of experience working with people of all ages, through face to face, telephone and online sessions in a confidential and empathic manner.
Through counselling, I provide a safe place to explore life events and the emotions, thoughts and behaviour they bring with them, in an accepting and non-judgmental environment. Your situation and the way you respond is unique to you. Seeking the support of someone external can be invaluable if we feel stuck in an emotion, out of control, or alone, and having the opportunity of talking to someone who is separate to our day to day lives, can allow for us to feel heard and understood, without fear of judgment or consequence.
Areas I work with include stress & anxiety, depression, grief, childhood issues, relationship issues, trauma, abuse, low self-esteem & confidence and gender dysphoria. I have experience of working with both neurotypical and neurodivergent individuals.
My aim is to build a trusting relationship, encouraging an honest approach with warmth, understanding and integrity. I offer a non-directive approach to counselling, providing you with the freedom to explore what you wish, at a pace that is comfortable for you. Together we can address issues past and present and over time, uncover your own autonomy, to process challenges old and new.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
