About Rebecca
Rebecca Dickinson is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with ten years of professional experience. She supports people who are feeling stressed, anxious, low or worn out by life. She also helps those managing relationship strain, trauma and abuse, grief and loss, and issues around eating and addiction.
Her way of working is respectful and down-to-earth. She adapts conversations and plans to what each person needs and wants. She aims to make the first steps into therapy feel manageable and clear rather than overwhelming.
Background and approach
In sessions she focuses on practical ways to cope and on understanding how past patterns affect current life. She pays attention to attachment and communication styles, and to how guilt, shame or isolation can keep people stuck. She also supports those facing separation, domestic violence, or end-of-life concerns.
Rebecca has a broad skill set for matters like sleep problems, intimacy-related issues, parenting strain, career stress, and compassion fatigue. She can help people work through self-harm thoughts, sexual assault and post-traumatic stress with sensitivity and steady support. She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.
Sessions are conducted in English. If you want to explore whether she is a good fit, use the site process to start a conversation and arrange a time to meet.

Therapeutic methods and what online sessions can offer
Rebecca uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical changes and understanding patterns. One common approach she uses helps people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours so they can manage anxiety and low mood more effectively. Another method looks at attachment styles and relationship patterns to improve communication and intimacy and to reduce repeating hurts from the past.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss options and adapt methods to the client’s goals and preferences. That means treatment plans are negotiated and reviewed as progress is made, with the client guiding what feels most helpful.
Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week and to keep continuity when life is unpredictable. It can reduce travel time and help people book shorter check-ins when needed. Confirm the specific session formats available with the therapist before booking so you know how sessions will be delivered.
