About Rebecca
Rebecca Riley is a counsellor who has practised in the United Kingdom for three years and holds BACP accreditation. She supports people facing stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem and depression. Rebecca aims to make the first steps into therapy feel manageable for someone who is worried or unsure.
She works in a client-centred way, treating each person as the expert on their life. Sessions are designed to be a calm space to talk, think things through and make sense of difficult feelings.
Background and approach
Rebecca listens without judgement and reflects back what she hears so clients can find their own next steps. Her experience includes helping people cope with major life changes and relationship strain. She also supports those dealing with trauma and abuse, sexual assault, isolation and problems linked to adoption and foster care.
Practical matters such as money worries, seasonal low mood and struggles with addiction are also within her remit. Rebecca focuses on building a trusting working relationship and on practical ways to manage distress between sessions. She aims to help clients increase self-compassion and to regain a sense of direction when life feels overwhelming.
Progress is paced to what each person is comfortable with. Sessions are offered in English and take place online by video, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. The pathway to begin is straightforward and intended to fit around everyday life.

Online support
Working online makes it straightforward to use a client-centred way of working. Conversations via video or phone allow the therapist to listen closely and respond in real time. Shorter check-ins by live chat or text messaging can help maintain momentum between sessions and support day-to-day coping.
Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and is decided together. Rebecca will talk with each person about their goals, preferences and what feels most useful. She adapts the way she works so it fits the client rather than forcing a single method.
Online sessions provide flexibility for people with busy lives or limited local options. Video calls recreate a face-to-face dialogue, phone sessions use less bandwidth, and messaging offers brief, practical contact when time is short. These options make it easier to keep therapy part of a working week or tight schedule.
