Background and approach

Conversations can help name emotions, spot patterns and try small changes that make daily life less heavy. Becky explains ideas simply and checks in often to make sure the work suits the client. Becky trained as a counsellor and is BACP registered, which means she follows professional standards set by the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy.

She has three years' experience working therapeutically with adults and young people, using an integrative framework to adapt to each person’s needs. Her work often draws on attachment ideas to look at how past relationships shape current worries. She also uses person-centred principles to keep sessions focused on the client's experience.

These approaches can help with anxiety, social phobia, body image concerns and feelings of isolation. People come to Becky for help with depression, relationship and family stress, feelings of guilt or shame, and questions about life purpose or midlife change. She supports exploration of control issues, communication problems and difficulties linked to abandonment or attachment wounds.

Taking the first step is framed as a gentle, collaborative process. Becky helps people set small, realistic goals and reviews progress together as therapy continues.

Client-centred approaches and online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on creating a listening space where the client feels heard and respected. The counsellor reflects what the person says, helps them find their own solutions and supports growth at the client’s pace. This approach can be helpful for anxiety, low self-esteem and relationship difficulties.

Becky also draws on attachment ideas to look at how early relationship patterns influence current reactions. This can help people understand why they respond to stress or separation in particular ways and offer routes to try new responses in everyday life.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Becky will discuss different ideas and choose what fits each person’s goals and preferences. The process is collaborative - goals and methods are reviewed as therapy progresses to make sure they remain relevant.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits shorter check-ins and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, childcare or study commitments and allow people to choose the format that feels most manageable.
