About Rebecca
Rebecca Hird is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people working through depression, anxiety and stress. She also supports people facing relationship and family concerns, grief, trauma and issues around self-esteem and addiction. Rebecca uses a calm, listening style and offers space to talk through what matters most to each person.
Rebecca works in a psychodynamic way, which means she pays attention to patterns that repeat in thoughts and relationships.
Background and approach
Sessions are often open and conversational rather than following a fixed checklist. This allows people to bring whatever feels most pressing that week and to follow the topics that matter to them. She offers weekly sessions and the therapy can be short or longer term depending on what someone prefers.
Homework is not commonly assigned, but it can be discussed if it would help reach personal goals between meetings. Rebecca aims to help people notice what gets in the way and to find clearer ways forward. Rebecca has five years of experience and holds BACP credentials, which stands for the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy.
She works with adults on a range of emotional and relational problems, including intimacy and body image concerns, mood difficulties, and responses to trauma. Sessions are available online for people inside and outside the UK. The approach is collaborative - she listens, reflects, and helps people think through choices and possible next steps.

Approaches Rebecca lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
Online support
The sessions are conversational and explore emotional life over time rather than following a strict step-by-step plan. That approach can suit people who want a space to reflect and to notice patterns, rather than a tightly structured programme.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Rebecca will discuss goals and preferences with each person and decide together whether psychodynamic work, a shorter focused plan, or a mix of ways is the best fit. The process is collaborative and adjusts as needs change.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let people meet face to face, phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit into a short break, live chat is helpful for quicker check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, travel or family life while keeping the focus on emotional change and clearer thinking.
