About Rebecca

Rebecca Sanderson uses a client-focused approach to help people facing stress and anxiety. She aims to make sessions straightforward and compassionate. Rebecca speaks plainly and encourages honest, everyday conversation about what is hard right now.

She has NCPS credentialing and around ten years of experience working in the United Kingdom. That background includes supporting people with trauma and abuse, anger, low self-esteem, depression and addictive behaviours. Rebecca also helps with concerns such as grief, sleep difficulties, eating and body-image issues, and panic or phobic reactions.

Background and approach

In sessions she draws on methods from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Trauma-Focused work to look at unhelpful patterns and manage distressing symptoms. She also uses Client-Centred and Solution-Focused ideas to keep conversations practical and goal-oriented. When useful she explores deeper themes with psychodynamic perspectives to understand repeated reactions and long-standing difficulties.

Rebecca aims to build an open, non-judgemental space so people can talk about thoughts and feelings without fear. She supports parents with parenting strain and people dealing with life changes, adoption or foster care matters, and caregiver stress. Practical steps and simple tools are offered alongside time to make sense of painful experiences.

Taking the first step can feel daunting and Rebecca acknowledges that courage. She invites people to start with a short matching questionnaire and then arrange a session that fits their schedule. The focus is on clarity, steady progress and finding what helps in day-to-day life.

Approaches that suit online therapy and everyday life

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding. It encourages people to speak openly about what matters to them and helps build confidence in making changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions link together and offers practical strategies to reduce anxiety and manage panic attacks or low mood. Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on reducing the impact of past traumatic events and teaching skills to cope with flashbacks, dissociation or nightmares.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, try different methods where needed, and together decide which style fits best. That collaborative process means plans can change as progress is made and priorities shift.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video is useful when visual cues help the conversation. Phone sessions can fit a short break or require less bandwidth. Live chat and text messaging allow quick check-ins, brief reflections and support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to arrange regular contact around work, childcare and day-to-day commitments, while keeping the focus on practical steps and steady progress.
