About Rebecca

Rebecca Burchell is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with three years of professional experience. She works with people facing relationship problems, family and intimacy-related concerns, career difficulties, stress and anxiety, and a wide range of other life challenges. Rebecca aims to listen carefully and help clients feel heard as they start talking about painful or difficult experiences.

She helps people who feel overwhelmed by worry, numb from sadness, or unsure how to talk with friends and family. Sessions focus on looking at what has brought a person to counselling and how their feelings and reactions connect to past events and current relationships. Rebecca uses straightforward discussion to map out patterns and responses that keep problems going.

Her background includes work as a school counsellor in a secondary school and a two-year placement supporting survivors of domestic abuse. That work shaped her approach to talking with young people and adults about trauma, boundaries and managing strong emotions. She accepts international clients and runs a private practice alongside her school work.

Practical issues such as sleep, eating, stress, parenting strain, addiction, and ADHD-related difficulties are also areas she addresses. She supports people exploring sexual identity, kink and relationship structure questions without judgement. Sessions move at the client’s pace and focus on concrete changes as well as understanding feelings.

Rebecca holds BACP registration, which is an entry shown for counsellors in the UK. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session to see how the work can proceed.

Approaches Rebecca Uses and how online work fits

Rebecca works with evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on understanding patterns and changing unhelpful responses. One common approach is talking-based therapy that helps people identify thoughts, feelings and behaviours that maintain anxiety and relationship strain, and then try small, practical changes to those patterns. Another helpful method addresses trauma and difficult life events by gently exploring how past experiences affect current emotions and relationships, and in doing so aims to reduce distress linked to those memories.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. Rebecca works collaboratively to decide which methods feel most useful for each person. She will check in about goals, preferences and what the client hopes to get from sessions, and then adapt the plan over time rather than insisting on a single technique from the start.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around daily life, for example by removing travel time, allowing a shorter check-in during a break, or offering a choice about being on camera. Many people find remote sessions help maintain continuity of care while balancing other commitments, and Rebecca will discuss practical arrangements when you book to make the sessions workable for your routine.
