About Rebecca

Rebecca Armstrong is a psychotherapeutic counsellor who helps people facing anxiety, depression, grief, addiction, and relationship or family problems. She also supports those dealing with parenting pressures, stress, ADHD and the effects of trauma and abuse. Rebecca offers a calm, non-judgemental space to talk about what feels hard and to look for practical ways forward.

Rebecca spends sessions listening for what matters most to each person. She keeps language plain and aims to break big problems into small, manageable steps. Conversations often focus on coping tools, emotion management, and rebuilding confidence after setbacks such as separation, infidelity or loss.

She has particular experience supporting people with neurodiversity and disabilities, and helps clients who struggle with attachment, abandonment, dissociation or chronic health challenges. She also addresses issues linked to impulse control, anger, commitment concerns and intimacy-related difficulties.

Rebecca is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques and adapts them to each person’s needs. Her style is collaborative and practical, with an emphasis on small changes that make daily life easier.

Clients come to Rebecca to work through difficult life changes, cope with shame or guilt, and to regain a sense of direction. She encourages open conversation about goals and tailors sessions to build skills that fit real life rather than abstract theory.

How Rebecca adapts evidence-based approaches online

Rebecca uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change and emotional understanding. One common approach she draws on helps people recognise and change unhelpful thought patterns, teaching practical strategies to reduce anxiety and low mood and to make everyday challenges more manageable. Another area of focus is work around attachment and trauma-related responses, which helps people understand relationship patterns, process difficult experiences and build steadier emotional responses.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Rebecca discusses goals and preferences with each person and adapts methods so they fit the individual. Sessions will be guided by what the client wants to achieve rather than a fixed protocol, and adjustments are made as progress is reviewed together.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life and to keep momentum between appointments. It can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-in meetings when needed, and can be arranged across time zones for international clients. Confirm the current session options before booking so you know how meetings will be held and what will work best for your routine.

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.
