About Rebecca
Rebecca Bennett is a BACP counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with eight years of professional experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, depression and coping with life changes, and also offers support around divorce and separation, domestic violence, guilt and shame, life purpose and self-love.
Rebecca draws on a person-centred way of working. She prioritises listening and helping people feel heard. Sessions focus on what matters to the person in front of her and on building a steady base for talking through painful memories or difficult choices.
When trauma is part of the picture she blends trauma-focused approaches with person-centred practice. That means looking at safety and stability first, then working on practical ways to manage strong emotions and triggers. She may introduce short exercises, simple psycho-education and breathing or grounding ideas to help calm the body and mind.
Rebecca has experience providing specialist counselling for victims of sexual and domestic violence as part of an organisation. Her background informs how she approaches disclosures of abuse and separation, and how she helps people plan for practical next steps alongside emotional work.
Sessions are collaborative and paced to the person’s needs. People who come because of shame or guilt often start with small steps - naming the feeling, noticing its effects, and trying out ways of responding that feel less overwhelming.
How her approaches translate to online work
Rebecca uses Client-Centred Therapy to focus on what the person brings to each session. This approach means the therapist listens closely, reflects what is said, and supports the person to explore thoughts and feelings at their own pace. It is useful for stress, anxiety, relationship concerns and feelings like guilt and shame.She also uses Trauma-Focused Therapy to address the impact of traumatic experiences. This involves working on stabilising reactions, understanding triggers, and practising ways to manage strong emotions. It is often used when past abuse or violence affects daily life.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss needs, goals and preferences and suggest which methods to try. Decisions about techniques are made together and can change as therapy progresses.
Check the platform for confirmed session formats before booking, as the biography does not list specific delivery methods. Online therapy can help fit sessions into busy routines, reduce travel time and make it easier to schedule short check-ins or longer conversations. It can also allow someone to choose quieter surroundings or avoid being on camera when that helps them engage more easily.
