Background and approach
She also helps people facing addiction, chronic illness, caregiver stress, and challenges linked to attachment or abandonment. Her work suits people who want to understand patterns and try manageable changes. Her approach mixes gentle exploration of past experiences with practical strategies for now.

How Rebecca uses approaches online and what to expect
Rebecca draws on attachment-based and client-centred ideas alongside cognitive behavioural techniques. Attachment-based work helps people understand how early relationships shape current feelings and patterns, useful for relationship stress, abandonment worries and attachment issues. Client-centred therapy focuses on empathic listening and reflecting back what someone says so they feel understood and can explore their own solutions.Cognitive behavioural work looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers practical steps to change unhelpful patterns. This approach is often used for anxiety, low mood, sleep problems and some eating or control issues.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Becky will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs and preferences. She adapts pacing and techniques over time and checks in regularly so the plan evolves with progress.
Online therapy offers flexibility and practical options for different days and needs. Video calls are helpful for deeper conversations and when visual connection matters, phone sessions can be a simpler way to speak when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or messaging suit shorter check-ins or people who prefer not to be on camera. These choices make it easier to fit therapy around work, caring duties or travel.
