About Rebecca

Rebecca Bennett helps people who are feeling overwhelmed, stuck or lost. She uses a person-centred way of working and trauma-focused methods to support people with stress, anxiety, depression and relationship concerns. Rebecca is a BACP member and has eight years of professional experience.

She works in the United Kingdom and has experience within a specialist service for survivors of sexual and domestic violence. That role involves listening, assessing immediate needs and helping people find practical steps for safety and support.

Rebecca uses an integrated approach. She begins by listening to what matters most to the person in front of her and builds sessions around those priorities. For people who have experienced trauma she explores support networks and aims to re-establish a sense of routine and stability.

When it is helpful, Rebecca introduces simple techniques to manage emotions and reduce overwhelm. She may offer short tasks between sessions, and practical education about stress responses and coping. Some of these exercises draw on cognitive behavioural ideas and polyvagal theory as part of trauma-focused work.

Sessions are conversational and focused on immediate needs as well as longer-term goals. Rebecca encourages people to say what they want from counselling and reviews progress together, adjusting the approach where needed.

How her client-centred and trauma-focused work can be adapted online

Rebecca uses client-centred counselling and trauma-focused methods and explains both simply. Client-centred counselling focuses on listening and reflecting what a person says so they can make their own decisions; it suits people who want a conversational way to talk through stress, relationship issues or life changes. Trauma-focused therapy looks at how past traumatic events affect current feelings and behaviours; it includes stabilising strategies and practical exercises to manage triggers and intense emotions.

Finding the best approach is part of the work together. Rebecca will discuss your goals and preferences in early sessions and agree an approach that fits those needs. This is a collaborative process and she reviews what is helpful as therapy continues.

Confirm the exact session formats before booking as the biography does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling around work, childcare or travel. It can also allow shorter check-ins, avoid the need to travel, and be a good option when quieter surroundings or not being on camera are needed. Many registered or accredited professionals adapt their methods to suit the online setting and Rebecca aims to do the same based on your aims and practical circumstances.
