About Rebecca
Rebecca Gilmour works with people who are feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or not quite themselves. She offers counselling for stress, anxiety, low mood, relationship difficulties and life transitions. Rebecca is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has three years' experience.
Rebecca uses a pluralistic approach and explains this as drawing on different therapeutic methods to suit each person. In sessions she focuses on practical steps and on understanding patterns in emotions and relationships. She checks in regularly to make sure the work feels useful and relevant.
People come to Rebecca for help with things like building self-confidence, managing strong emotions, coping with grief, and addressing addictive behaviours. She also supports those dealing with parenting strain, workplace stress, career concerns and aspects of sexual or gender identity. The emphasis is on clear, manageable changes rather than complex theory.
Sessions involve talking through current difficulties, noticing recurring patterns, and trying out small changes between meetings. Rebecca aims to make sessions straightforward, with a collaborative planning of goals and next steps. The therapist relationship is treated as central, with the early meetings used to decide whether the working style fits.
Rebecca practises in the United Kingdom and works in English. If someone wants to start, they use the platform button to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. The subscription used for sessions can be cancelled at any time.
Therapeutic approaches and online counselling
Pluralistic counselling means using a mix of methods and choosing the techniques that suit each person. That might include short-term, goal-focused work to manage stress and anxiety, which uses structured conversations and practical tools to reduce immediate symptoms. It can also include relational work that looks at patterns in relationships and how those patterns affect feelings and behaviour.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss your goals and preferences and agree on what to try together. Progress is checked regularly and the plan is adjusted if something is not helping.
Confirm the available session formats before booking, as the biography does not list them. Online counselling can make it easier to fit appointments around work and family life, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people use quieter surroundings or avoid being on camera if that helps them engage better.
Sessions take place through BetterHelp by video, phone or messaging. We will earn a commission if you sign up.
