About Rebecca
Rebecca Fahey is a counsellor who works with people facing stress, anxiety, addiction and relationship difficulties. She uses a warm, empathetic approach and aims to help people feel heard.

She offers online sessions by video, phone, chat and messaging. Rebecca draws on several practical approaches to meet each person’s needs. She uses client-centred ways to help people talk through what matters to them.
Background and approach
She also uses cognitive behavioural ideas to spot unhelpful thinking and try different ways of responding. Her background includes work in residential services for substance and alcohol misuse, and supporting people affected by trauma and abuse. She has also worked in a supported psychiatric hospital, gaining experience with long-term mental health conditions such as bipolar disorder, psychosis and personality-related difficulties.
This breadth means she is used to holding difficult, often complex concerns. Rebecca trained in integrative counselling, with an FdSc degree in Integrative Counselling and a Professional Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling. She also holds certificates for working with people affected by addiction.
These qualifications support the mix of approaches she brings to sessions. In sessions she aims to help people make small, realistic changes. Conversations are paced to the individual.
Practical tools, reflective discussion and short-term goal work are all options depending on what a person wants. She works in English and provides online formats for different needs. Rebecca has five years of professional experience and practises in the United Kingdom.

How different approaches work online
Rebecca blends client-centred work with cognitive behavioural techniques to meet practical problems. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening closely to a person’s experience and helping them find their own solutions; it can be helpful for people who need a space to talk things through and feel understood. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers simple experiments and tools to try between sessions; it is often used for anxiety, low mood and sleep difficulties.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Rebecca treats this as a collaboration - she will listen to your goals and try options that fit your needs. Plans can change as you learn what works, combining reflective conversation with practical exercises when useful.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging, so people can pick what fits their life. Video calls are good when face-to-face conversation matters. Phone sessions can be a shorter check-in or suit lower bandwidth. Live chat and messaging can be useful for regular, brief support or when writing feels easier than talking. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit around work, family or other commitments.
