About Rebecca
BACP. Five years' experience. Rebecca Hepburn works with stress, anxiety, relationship problems, grief, low self-esteem and depression, and with issues linked to sexuality and identity. She uses a mix of talking therapies and practical tools to help people manage emotions and make clearer choices.
Rebecca offers straightforward counselling that focuses on what is causing difficulty now. She listens and reflects back what she hears, and helps people notice patterns in their thinking and behaviour. That can include looking at past experiences that keep repeating, and trying small changes in day-to-day responses.
Her approach draws on client-centred work, where the person's experience guides sessions. She also uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and try alternative ways of coping. Narrative therapy can be used to separate someone from a problem and rewrite how they tell their story.
Rebecca has worked in UK psychiatric hospitals, schools and private practice. That background has involved supporting people through trauma, bereavement, self-harm concerns, relationship breakdown and experiences of discrimination. She also works with neurodivergent clients and people exploring kink and alternative sexual culture.
Sessions are conducted in English and she accepts international clients. Rebecca is based in the United Kingdom and works to help people set practical goals, manage symptoms such as sleeping or eating problems, and improve communication with others.
To begin, a short questionnaire and an initial session are used to agree aims and a suitable way of working. Her practice uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time and fees vary with location.
Therapeutic approaches used in online counselling
Client-centred counselling focuses on the person's experience and priorities. The counsellor listens and follows what matters to the client, which can help with confidence, relationship concerns and identity issues.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour. It is practical and can help with anxiety, sleep problems, low mood and unhelpful coping habits.
Narrative therapy treats problems as separate from the person and helps people retell their story in different ways. This approach can support people dealing with shame, trauma or repeated relationship patterns.
Deciding which approach to try is part of the work. Rebecca will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful, and will adapt the way of working as the counselling progresses. That choice is made together rather than fixed in advance.
Please confirm the current session formats before booking, as the biography does not list specific options here. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into daily life by reducing travel, allowing shorter check-ins between commitments, and letting people choose quieter or lower-bandwidth ways of talking when needed.
