About Rebecca

Rebecca Williams is a BACP counsellor who helps people facing grief, anxiety, depression and stress. She supports those dealing with trauma, eating difficulties, addiction and relationship challenges. Rebecca works with adults aged 16 and over and offers individual counselling in the United Kingdom. Her approach is calm and practical. She aims to make sessions feel authentic and non-judgemental. Rebecca uses a mix of talking, mindfulness and skills-based work so people can try things between meetings. Rebecca blends client-centred listening with evidence-informed methods. She uses cognitive behavioural ideas to spot patterns of thinking and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy skills to manage intense emotions. Attachment-based thinking helps when past relationships affect present day trust and closeness. She brings a trauma-informed perspective for those who have faced abuse or loss, and has supported people with PTSD, complex anxiety and suicide bereavement. Rebecca also works with clients managing ADHD, eating concerns and the strain of caring roles. Rebecca describes her practice as holistic, considering physical, emotional and social factors. She follows the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy ethical framework. Sessions are shaped around each person’s goals, with straightforward options for practical coping and emotional processing.

Approaches that guide online counselling

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting overwhelmed, then identify actions that match their values. It can help with anxiety, low mood and coping with life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns of trust and closeness. It is useful when past hurts affect present-day relationships or emotional safety. Client-Centred Therapy gives people space to be heard without judgement. The counsellor follows the person’s pace and priorities, helping them make sense of their experience. Finding the right approach is part of the work. Rebecca will talk through options and try methods that fit the person’s goals and preferences. She aims to make therapy collaborative so clients help decide what feels most useful. Please confirm current session options before booking, as the biography does not list specific formats. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into daily life by removing travel and allowing shorter check-ins when needed. It can also suit people who prefer not to be on camera or who need a quieter time slot during the day. Registered or accredited professionals, including counsellors who use these approaches, can adapt pacing and tools so therapy fits around work, caring duties and other commitments.
