About Rebecca
BACP. Rebecca Armstrong has five years of experience as a psychotherapeutic counsellor based in the United Kingdom. She works with people on a wide range of concerns including anxiety, depression, grief, addiction, relationship and family problems, and parenting stresses. She also supports LGBT clients and those coping with life changes or compassion fatigue.
Rebecca has a focus on neurodiversity and disability. She helps people with autism or Asperger syndrome and those facing attachment or abandonment issues. She also addresses difficulties such as chronic pain or illness, dissociation, impulsivity, and intimacy‑related problems.
Sessions aim to identify what is holding a person back and to build practical ways forward. She talks through patterns like imposter syndrome, control issues, and avoidance. Practical skills and reflective conversation are used to strengthen confidence and reduce overwhelm.
Her work also covers fertility concerns, divorce and separation, domestic violence aftermath, infidelity and commitment issues. Rebecca supports people dealing with guilt, shame and grief, and helps them manage stress and anger in day to day life.
Rebecca accepts international clients and conducts counselling in English. She uses a subscription model for sessions which can be cancelled at any time. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session via the See online counselling options button.
Therapeutic approaches used in online counselling
Rebecca draws on evidence‑based therapeutic techniques to help with emotional and practical problems. One approach focuses on understanding patterns of thought and behaviour that keep problems going, and on trying alternative responses to reduce anxiety and low mood. This helps with issues like depression, anxiety and compulsive behaviours.Another approach looks at attachment and relationship patterns, exploring how past relationships affect current trust, intimacy and boundaries. That work can help with abandonment, commitment or intimacy‑related difficulties and with family conflicts.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The counsellor and client review goals and try methods that fit the person’s needs and preferences. Adjustments are made over time based on what is helpful.
Practical benefits of online counselling include being able to schedule sessions more easily around work or family commitments and keeping contact when travel is difficult.
