About Rebecca

Rebecca Hepburn is a BACP counsellor working in the United Kingdom with five years of practice. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, anger, relationship problems, bereavement, low self-esteem and depression. She also supports people managing neurodivergence concerns, parenting strain, career changes and compassion fatigue.

Rebecca uses straightforward conversation to help people untangle what is causing distress. Sessions focus on what feels most pressing. She listens and helps clients name patterns that keep coming up, then tests small changes in thinking and behaviour.

Her background includes work in UK psychiatric hospitals, schools and private practice. That variety means she is used to short-term focused work and longer therapeutic conversations when needed. Rebecca draws on Client-Centred Therapy to follow the client’s lead and build a trusting working relationship.

She mixes Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) techniques when clarifying thoughts and testing different responses to stress or anger. Narrative Therapy helps people separate themselves from painful stories they tell about who they are. Psychodynamic ideas are used sometimes to look at repeating relationship patterns.

Sessions aim to be practical and readable. Rebecca will suggest exercises between meetings and talk through what did and didn’t help. International clients can be accepted and sessions are carried out in English. To begin, clients use the platform matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session.

How Rebecca uses her approaches in online sessions

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the client’s perspective. The therapist listens and follows the participant’s lead so they can speak about what matters most. This helps when someone needs to feel understood before making changes.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions link together. Online sessions can work through unhelpful thinking patterns and set small experiments to try different responses to anger or anxiety.

Narrative Therapy supports people to step back from the stories that define them. It can help reduce shame and separate a person from a problem that feels stuck.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Rebecca will talk with the client about goals and preferences and then agree a plan together. That plan can change as progress is reviewed and different strategies are tried.

Confirm the session formats available before booking, since the biography does not list specific options. Online work can make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins where useful, and avoid travel time. It also lets people choose a quieter setting, use less bandwidth by switching to audio, or keep sessions to a practical length that fits around work or family commitments.
