About Rebecca
Rebecca Mcintosh is a BACP-registered counsellor with 12 years of practice in the United Kingdom. She works with people experiencing stress, anxiety, relationship problems, grief and other life changes. Rebecca also supports clients with ADHD, trauma and abuse, depression and bipolar-related concerns.
She keeps sessions straightforward and practical. People come to her when they feel stuck or overwhelmed and want help sorting their thoughts. Rebecca listens, asks clear questions and helps people notice patterns that keep problems repeating.
Her way of working draws on client-centred principles. That means the client’s experience guides the pace and focus of each meeting. She also uses mindfulness techniques to help with emotional regulation and solution-focused ideas to identify small, doable steps forward.
Rebecca has experience supporting neurodivergent and disabled people, and she has worked for several years with people affected by cancer through a Cancer Support setting. Those roles shaped how she adapts conversations to fit different needs and life circumstances.
She offers individual and couples work and pays attention to practical concerns like communication, boundaries and day-to-day coping. Sessions aim to make difficult problems easier to talk about and to produce clear next steps the client can try between meetings.
How her approaches translate to online work
Rebecca uses client-centred work and mindfulness in her online sessions. Client-centred work focuses on what the client brings to each meeting and lets the conversation set the pace. That approach helps when someone needs to unpack feelings or think through difficult choices. Mindfulness techniques teach simple ways to notice bodily responses and calm intense emotions, which can help with anxiety and stress.She also draws on solution-focused ideas to turn conversations into practical next steps. Solution-focused work looks for small changes that can be tried between sessions to test what helps. Deciding which approach to use is collaborative - she will discuss options with the client and agree what to try based on needs, goals and preferences.

Online work can make scheduling easier and fit more readily around daily life, such as fitting a shorter check-in during a lunch break or avoiding travel time. It also allows continuing work when managing health or mobility challenges makes in-person meetings difficult. Registered and accredited professionals can adapt methods for video or phone settings, and she will discuss what will work best for the client before the first session.
