Rebecca Williams, BACP

Rebecca Williams is a BACP counsellor who helps people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression and grief. She also supports those facing trauma and abuse, eating difficulties, addictions, relationship and intimacy concerns, and issues with self-esteem. Her profile is written plainly so a worried parent can quickly see whether she might be a fit.

Rebecca works with adults and offers individual counselling for people aged 16 and over. She aims to create a calm, non-judgemental space where clients can talk about what matters to them. She describes therapy as a collaborative process and focuses on practical steps as well as emotional understanding.

Her approach is integrative and client-centred, combining different methods to meet each person’s needs. She draws on cognitive behavioural techniques, acceptance and commitment ideas, and elements of attachment-based work when relevant. Rebecca also uses mindfulness and trauma-informed ways of working for those affected by past harm.

Rebecca has four years of counselling experience and is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She follows the ethical framework set out by that organisation. She offers a holistic view that considers physical, emotional and social factors when planning sessions.

Her additional focuses include ADHD, bereavement including suicide loss, adoption and foster care concerns, caregiving stress and body image issues. If these areas are relevant, she can tailor the conversation to the immediate practical and emotional needs of the person seeking help.

How Rebecca’s approaches can work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing difficult thoughts and choosing valued actions. Online sessions using ACT can help people struggling with anxiety, low mood or life changes to clarify what matters and take manageable steps. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour and teaches practical strategies to change unhelpful patterns. In a remote conversation CBT can be used to set clear tasks and test new ways of coping between meetings. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how past relationships shape current patterns and can help with intimacy, abandonment and communication concerns by exploring those connections together.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will listen to the person’s situation, goals and preferences, then suggest one or a blend of methods. This is a collaborative process and plans can be adjusted as therapy progresses.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow a quicker check-in when a shorter conversation will help. It can also make it simpler to schedule sessions around work or caregiving commitments, and to use worksheets or mindfulness exercises between meetings.
