About Rebecca
Rebecca Matthews is a BACP therapist in the United Kingdom with six years' experience. She focuses on relationship issues, grief, low self-esteem, depression, stress and anxiety. She also works with LGBT concerns and intimacy-related difficulties. Sessions are conducted in English.
Rebecca uses a person-centred way of working while drawing on cognitive and behavioural methods when they suit a client's goals. That means conversations start with what matters most to the client and then practical strategies are introduced where useful. She also uses elements of dialectical behaviour therapy and acceptance and commitment work to help people manage strong emotions and stay connected to values.
Typical concerns she supports include bereavement, relationship breakdown, attachment difficulties and coping with life changes. She also offers focused help around abandonment, codependency, communication problems and issues such as guilt, shame or isolation. Panic symptoms and anxiety-related patterns are within her scope of practice.
Sessions begin by looking at what someone wants to achieve and then agreeing small steps to work on between meetings. Therapy can include reflective conversation, skill practice and simple behavioural experiments. Progress is reviewed regularly so the work stays practical and relevant.
Rebecca trained as a counsellor and is a BACP member, recorded as MBACP. If someone wants to arrange a first session they are asked to use the service matching process to book and to check current session options before confirming a booking.

How her approaches translate to online work
Rebecca commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and attachment-based methods alongside a person-centred stance. ACT helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings while choosing actions that match their values; it can be useful for anxiety, depression and coping with life changes. Attachment-based work looks at patterns in close relationships and how early interaction styles affect current connections; this helps when intimacy, trust or abandonment concerns are present.Finding the right mix of approaches is collaborative. The therapist will discuss goals, try different techniques and agree what feels most helpful. Clients and therapist review what is working and adjust the plan together so the approach fits the person's needs and preferences.
The practical benefits of online sessions depend on available formats, which are not specified in the biography. Please confirm what session types are offered before booking. In general, remote sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and let people attend without travel. Therapists and registered or accredited professionals will also adapt exercises like behavioural experiments, mindfulness practices and skills coaching to work in a remote setting when appropriate.
