Integrative Approaches and Accessible Online Support
Rebecca works from an integrative perspective that draws on several evidence-based approaches to suit different needs. Person-centred counselling emphasises empathy, unconditional positive regard, and collaborative listening - it helps people explore their feelings and find their own solutions in a supportive environment. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviours, which can be especially useful for anxiety, stress, and low mood. Attachment-informed thinking considers how early relationships shape patterns in adult relationships and self-worth, offering a framework for addressing difficulties in connection and trust.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and is decided collaboratively. Rebecca works with clients to understand their goals, preferences, and life context, and adapts methods so therapy fits the individual rather than expecting the person to fit the intervention.
Online therapy options - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - make it easier to access consistent support around work, family, and geographic constraints. These formats offer flexibility in scheduling and ways of communicating, so clients can choose what feels most comfortable while working with registered professionals and therapists to make meaningful progress.
