About Rebecca
Rebecca Armstrong is a psychotherapeutic counsellor who helps people work through depression, anxiety, grief, addiction and parenting stress. She offers a calm, non-judgemental space where clients can talk about what feels stuck and start finding practical ways forward. Her background and experience shape straightforward, compassionate support for everyday problems.
Rebecca has five years' practice as a counsellor and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She works with people who are neurodivergent or living with disability, helping them navigate environments that can feel challenging or exclusionary.
Background and approach
She listens for strengths and builds on what already works for each person. Sessions are conversational and goal-focused. Rebecca helps clients name unhelpful patterns such as self-doubt or imposter feelings, and then tries out different strategies to reduce their impact.
Work may include developing routines, practising new ways of responding, and building skills for managing mood and stress. She is comfortable talking about difficult experiences such as trauma, abandonment or relationship betrayal, and will move at a pace the client can manage. Rebecca also supports people facing practical life changes, fertility and family issues, or the emotional effects of chronic illness.
People can expect a collaborative approach that mixes listening with practical tools. The aim is clearer thinking, improved coping and a fuller sense of choice in everyday life.

Online support
She also works with strengths-based and neurodiversity-aware ways of working, which emphasise a person’s capabilities and adapt strategies to suit different communication or sensory needs. This helps people who feel misunderstood to find approaches that fit their life and routines.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Rebecca collaborates with each client to test methods and adjust them to their goals and preferences. Together they decide what feels most useful and change course when something isn’t working.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation, phone for a lower-bandwidth option, chat for shorter check-ins and text for ongoing written reflection. These choices help fit therapy around work, family and daily life while keeping the focus on practical progress.
