Background and approach

Conversations are practical and rooted in everyday life, so parents and busy people can try ideas that fit their routines. Her background includes supporting people with low self-esteem, relationship problems and survivors of sexual assault and other traumas. She also works with issues such as social anxiety, post-traumatic stress and codependency.

That range gives her experience with both emotional and body-based reactions to distress. In sessions Rebecca uses person-centred listening and somatic awareness alongside trauma-focused approaches. That combination helps people understand feelings, how the body holds stress, and what steps feel doable next.

She treats the person rather than a label and helps set goals people can test between sessions. People who choose Rebecca often want practical tools and steady support while they rebuild confidence. She offers video, phone, live chat and messaging sessions to suit different schedules and needs.

International appointments are possible for English speakers.

Approaches for body and relationship work online

Rebecca blends client-centred listening with somatic and trauma-focused ideas to address anxiety and relationship strain. Client-Centred Therapy means the counsellor listens closely and follows the person's pace so goals come from what matters most to them. Somatic Therapy pays attention to how the body stores stress and uses simple breath or movement awareness to help reduce physical tension. Trauma-Focused Therapy looks at the impact of distressing events and supports gradual steps to feel steadier in daily life.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Rebecca will talk with each person about their needs, goals and how they prefer to work. Together they try approaches and adjust them so the sessions feel useful and manageable.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different days and routines. Video calls help keep visual contact and non-verbal cues. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited or screens are tiring. Live chat and messaging make shorter check-ins possible and can fit into busy schedules more easily.
