About Rebecca

Becki tailors each session to the person in front of her. She draws on client-centred ways of working and practical techniques from cognitive behavioural therapy and emotionally-focused therapy.

Background and approach

That means conversations focus on what matters now, with tools you can try between sessions to manage anxiety or stress. Many of Becki's clients seek help for anxiety, stress, low self-esteem, grief, trauma, relationship issues and identity questions. She also supports people navigating neurodiversity, including autistic clients who are exploring their own experience.

Becki aims to make differences visible and respected in therapy. Sessions are down-to-earth and flexible. Meetings can include talking, reflecting on patterns, and learning simple strategies to reduce worry or improve sleeping and daily routines.

The therapist adapts pace and style to each person's needs. Becki believes therapy is a collaborative process. She helps clients set realistic goals and checks in about what is helpful.

People don’t need to have everything figured out before starting - bringing a question or a sense that things need to change is enough. Work with Becki often combines short-term tools with deeper reflection so people can cope better day to day while understanding longer-term patterns. Her aim is to help clients feel steadier and more able to handle life’s challenges.

How Becki’s approaches work online

Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and responding to you, helping you feel heard and understood while you decide what to work on. It suits people who need a gentle, paced space to talk about anxiety, identity or difficult feelings.

Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions interact and teaches practical strategies to reduce worry and improve routines like sleep. It is useful when you want structured steps to try between sessions.

Dialectical behaviour therapy (DBT) offers skills for managing strong emotions and improving emotional coping. It can help with anger, intense anxiety or patterns that feel hard to change.

Finding the right approach is part of the journey. The therapist will work together with you to choose methods that match your goals, preferences and current needs. That collaborative planning can change over time as progress is made.

Online therapy with Becki uses video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging, giving flexibility to suit your routine. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation and non-verbal cues, phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and messaging or live chat can fit brief check-ins or quieter days. These options make it easier to keep therapy going around work, family responsibilities and other commitments.
