About Rebecca
Counsellor Rebecca Burchell is BACP-registered and has three years of professional experience. She works with relationship and family concerns, intimacy issues and career difficulties, and also helps with anxiety, stress, addictions and depression. Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients.
Rebecca uses straightforward, person-centred work. She listens and helps people put words to what is troubling them. That may mean talking about current problems, past events, or how relationships affect mood and behaviour. She aims to help clients move from feeling blamed by themselves to understanding what has happened to them.
Her practice covers a wide range of issues including parenting, sleeping and eating concerns, anger, low self-esteem, ADHD and trauma. Rebecca has also worked with people facing chronic illness, codependency, body image and communication problems. She has experience from a school counselling role and from a placement supporting survivors of domestic abuse.
Sessions look at how a person responds to their surroundings and important people in their life. Conversation may include key life events, patterns in relationships, and practical ways to cope day to day. The therapist lets clients set the pace and discusses goals together.
Rebecca balances private practice work with time spent supporting young people in a secondary school and previous work at a domestic abuse service. That mix informs her understanding of both immediate pressures and longer term effects of trauma.
Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Rebecca draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on understanding thoughts, feelings and behaviour. One commonly used strand helps people notice unhelpful thought patterns and try different ways of responding. This can reduce anxiety and make stressful situations easier to manage. Another approach looks at attachment and relationship patterns, helping people see how past experiences shape current relationships and intimacy.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss options and agree together which methods to try based on what the client wants and needs. This is a collaborative process and can change as progress is made.
If you want online sessions, check the current session options before booking. The practical benefits include fitting sessions around work and family life, avoiding travel time, and choosing a quieter moment for a shorter check-in. Some people prefer not being on camera, which can make it easier to speak, while others choose video to read facial cues. Confirm which formats are offered when you arrange the first appointment.
