About Rebecca

Rebecca Williams is a BACP counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, grief, eating difficulties and relationship or intimacy-related concerns. She also supports people with addiction, ADHD, bipolar mood issues, sleep problems and career or parenting pressures. She aims to offer a calm, non-judgemental space where people can talk through what matters to them and take steps towards clearer choices.

Rebecca works in an individual, person-centred way. She listens first, then uses techniques from cognitive behavioural therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy alongside attachment-based ideas. That means she helps people notice unhelpful thought patterns, clarify values, and build practical skills for daily life.

Her approach is integrative and trauma-informed. Sessions look at emotional, social and physical needs together rather than treating problems in isolation. Rebecca also uses elements of dialectical behaviour therapy to teach emotional regulation and distress-tolerance skills when these are needed.

She has four years' experience and is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. Rebecca works with people aged 16 and over, including those who have faced bereavement and complex anxiety, and those with a history of PTSD or eating disorders.

People who meet her can expect practical tools and reflective conversation. She adapts techniques to each person rather than following a fixed script. The aim is to help people build more helpful ways of coping and increase confidence in everyday life.

How Rebecca uses proven approaches in online work

Rebecca draws on cognitive behavioural therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy in accessible, practical ways. CBT helps by identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing them against everyday reality, which can reduce worry and improve sleep and mood. Acceptance and commitment therapy focuses on values and actions, helping people notice difficult thoughts without getting stuck and take steps that matter to them.

Finding the right approach is a joint process. Rebecca listens to what a person wants to change and offers techniques that fit their goals and preferences. She adapts methods over time so therapy remains relevant and useful rather than following a fixed programme.

The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, for example by removing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins during a workday, or avoiding video when someone prefers audio only. Registered or accredited professionals can use these practical advantages to help clients build skills, practise new responses and keep momentum between sessions.

Before you get in touch

Therapists listed here offer talking therapy online. A profile is not a diagnosis of you or of anyone in your life, and no therapist can promise how a relationship will turn out.

If you are in danger, or someone is hurting or threatening you, contact emergency services or a domestic-abuse helpline. The numbers are at the foot of this page.
