About Rebecca

Rebecca Henderson makes space for people feeling overwhelmed by stress and anxiety. She speaks plainly and listens closely so worries can be named. Conversations are gentle and practical, aimed at helping someone move forward from a stuck place.

She draws on seven years working in family services, schools, government-funded programs and independent practice. That variety means she has supported people with workplace burnout, parenting strain, low self-esteem and problem gambling.

Background and approach

She also helps with relationship problems and compassion fatigue for carers. Sessions are conversational. Rebecca validates what is hard, offers fresh ways to look at problems, and gently challenges unhelpful thinking.

She helps people set clear goals and builds a plan that fits day-to-day life rather than relying on jargon or abstract ideas. Rebecca keeps a sense of humour alongside serious listening. She often works with people who say they cannot talk about things with friends or family.

Her aim is to make therapy feel like a calm, steady place to sort out what matters most. Practically, she offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to suit different needs. Rebecca holds PACFA credentialing with work based in Australia and runs sessions in English.

To begin, a short matching questionnaire is used to find the right fit before scheduling.

Therapeutic approaches and online delivery that fit real life

Evidence-based therapeutic techniques focus on practical ways to change unhelpful thinking and behaviour. One common method involves identifying and reframing the thoughts that fuel anxiety and stress, which helps reduce overwhelming feelings and supports clearer decision-making. Another approach concentrates on behavioural strategies - small, doable changes in routines and responses that build confidence and reduce avoidance over time.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work and will be decided together. The therapist will listen to your goals, try different ways of working and adapt methods to suit how you respond. This collaborative process aims to match techniques to real-world needs rather than using a single fixed method.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging so therapy can fit into busy lives. Video lets you maintain a face-to-face connection. Phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and messaging support short check-ins, journalling between sessions or people who prefer writing. These options make it simpler to keep progress moving even with work, family or caring responsibilities.
