About Rebecca
Rebecca (Becky) Thomas is a counsellor who trained in person-centred practice and has worked in therapeutic settings since 2018. She uses a calm, non-judgemental approach and aims to help people make sense of difficult feelings. Becky listens with empathy and encourages clients to move at their own pace.
Becky completed a BSc (Hons) in Psychology in 2015 and studied on a British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy course to qualify as a Person Centred therapist in 2021.
Background and approach
She also holds Graduate Membership of the British Psychological Society and is an Individual Member of the BACP. These backgrounds inform her practical knowledge of mental health and wellbeing. Her work has included placements in an NHS GP practice, a mental health charity in a deprived area, and support roles inside a closed-category maximum security prison.
This variety has given experience with many different life situations and struggles. She aims to bring that range into sessions in an approachable way. In conversation she focuses on helping people identify their own strengths.
Sessions often involve talking through recent events, exploring emotions, and practising small coping strategies. Becky emphasises self-compassion and aims to help clients build tools they can use outside sessions. Becky works with concerns such as stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, addictions, ADHD, and relationship or intimacy-related issues.
She also supports people with body image, parenting strain, chronic health issues, career decisions, and coping with life changes. Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients.

Person-centred support and online options
Rebecca uses Client-Centred Therapy which focuses on listening, empathy and helping people find their own answers. This approach is useful for issues such as low self-esteem, stress, grief, and navigating life changes because it prioritises the client's perspective and personal values.The practice helps people work through trauma and emotional pain by offering steady, non-judgemental presence rather than directing every step. In sessions the counsellor mirrors concerns, helps clarify feelings, and supports clients to build self-compassion and practical coping steps that they can use between meetings.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss your goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, and adjust methods over time to suit your needs. Together you will decide which ways of working fit best for your current situation.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let you see facial expression and body language, phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit a break at work, and live chat or text-based messaging suits quick check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options can make it easier to keep continuity of care around busy lives and different time zones, while still focusing on steady, person-centred work.
