About Rebecca
Rebecca Mcintosh is a counsellor with 12 years of experience based in the United Kingdom. She helps people who feel stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure how to move forward. Sessions are shaped to the needs of each person and aim to give space to think and gain clarity.
Rebecca uses a person-centred way of working that focuses on the individual’s perspective. She listens without judgement and encourages people to explore their feelings at their own pace.
Background and approach
That gentle, steady approach often suits those facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, grief or low self-esteem. She also brings mindfulness and solution-focused ideas into sessions. Mindfulness practices can help with strong emotions and concentration, while short-term, goal-oriented techniques support practical steps and clearer next actions.
Rebecca adapts methods to what each person finds helpful. Her background includes work with neurodivergent and disabled people and several years supporting people affected by cancer. This experience informs how she responds to long-term health concerns, caregiving stress and changes in life circumstances.
Rebecca works with individuals and couples and names areas she often sees, such as trauma, ADHD, addiction, bipolar and chronic illness. She is listed with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and conducts sessions in English.

How Rebecca’s approaches work online
Rebecca combines person-centred counselling with mindfulness and solution-focused techniques. Person-centred counselling means the therapist listens closely to what matters to the individual and follows their pace, which helps people feel heard and understood. Mindfulness offers simple, practical exercises to notice thoughts and emotions, useful for stress, anxiety and concentration. Solution-focused work keeps sessions goal-directed, identifying small, achievable steps to change day-to-day routines and improve coping.Deciding on the right mix of approaches is part of the work together. Rebecca will talk through options and tailor methods to the person’s needs, goals and preferences. That collaborative discussion helps pick strategies that feel useful and realistic for the person’s life.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to provide practical flexibility. Video calls are good for face-to-face interaction and visual cues, phone sessions suit those who prefer not to be on camera or have limited bandwidth, live chat allows quick check-ins and pacing, and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between scheduled sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caring duties or health needs.
