About Rebecca

Counsellor (NCPS), six years' experience. Rebecca Briggs helps people with stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem and depression. She also supports those facing trauma, anger, career change and compassion fatigue. Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients.

Rebecca uses straightforward talking therapy. She focuses on understanding attachment patterns, the here-and-now of relationships, and the thoughts that keep difficult feelings going. Sessions aim to identify what feels stuck, and then try small, practical ways to change it. She combines client-centred listening with cognitive tools and emotionally focused work to make those shifts.

People come to her for one-off support during life change and for longer work on repeated problems. She pays attention to grief, abandonment and end-of-life concerns alongside issues such as obsessive thoughts, phobias and self-harm. Rebecca also works with young adult concerns and co-morbid presentations where more than one difficulty appears together.

Her approach is collaborative and plainspoken. She asks questions, reflects what she hears, and offers behavioural ideas to test between sessions. Therapy sessions move at a pace set by the person in front of her and focus on practical next steps as well as understanding patterns.

Rebecca holds an NCPS credential and trained for a BSc First Class (Hons) degree in counselling. She began practising six years ago and has built experience across bereavement, mood and anxiety-related issues. To start, follow the site's process to match and book an initial session.

Therapeutic approaches used for remote work

Attachment-based work looks at how early relationship patterns affect current bonds and trust. It helps when people notice repeating difficulties in close relationships or feel especially reactive around separation and loss.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings and actions. It offers practical exercises and experiments to test unhelpful beliefs and reduce anxiety or low mood.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work with the person to choose which methods to try, adjusting them to suit needs, goals and preferences in a collaborative way.

Confirm which session formats are offered before booking, as the biography does not list specific formats. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people join from a different location if travel is difficult, while the therapist and client agree on how best to structure contact and homework between sessions.
