About Rebecca
Rebecca Williams is a BACP-registered counsellor in the United Kingdom with four years' experience. She works with adults on issues such as stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, eating difficulties, depression, addictions, relationship and family concerns, parenting strain, self-esteem and sleep problems. She also lists support for ADHD, compassion fatigue and career-related stress. Sessions are offered in English.
Rebecca takes a straightforward, person-centred approach. She listens to what is most worrying and helps people set practical goals. Conversations focus on what is happening now and what the next steps might be. She uses clear techniques rather than jargon so people leave with things to try between sessions.
Her practice draws on a mix of talking therapies including cognitive behavioural methods, acceptance and commitment ideas, attachment-focused work and dialectical behaviour techniques. These are used to help with coping skills, managing intense emotions, and improving day-to-day routines. Rebecca also applies client-centred principles to keep sessions focused on each person’s priorities.
She has experience supporting people with bereavement, ADHD, complex anxiety and eating difficulties, and lists additional interests such as adoption and foster care, blended family issues and caregiver stress. Rebecca follows the ethical framework of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP).
To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then arrange a first session. Fees vary by location and are provided through a cancellable subscription model. International clients are not accepted at this time.
How sessions work
How Rebecca uses therapy approaches online
Rebecca commonly combines cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) with acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT). CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them against real-life evidence, which can help with anxiety, depression and sleep problems. ACT emphasises noticing thoughts and feelings while clarifying personal values and practical goals for daily life.She also draws on attachment-based ideas to look at patterns in important relationships. This work helps people understand repeated reactions and develop different ways of relating to others, which can be useful for intimacy, parenting strain and family-related stress.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and agree together which methods to try. That collaborative process means methods can shift as needs change.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling into busy schedules, keep appointments during work breaks, or use shorter check-ins when time is limited. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt techniques for talking by voice or video and suggest simple home practices to use between sessions.
