About Rebecca
Rebecca Stokes is a BACP-registered counsellor based in the United Kingdom with three years' experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship strain, grief, parenting pressures, and anger. Rebecca also supports people facing life changes, career questions and neurodiversity-related concerns such as autism and ADHD.
Rebecca describes her work as person-centred, which means she treats each person as the expert on their own life. Sessions aim to be collaborative and paced to what feels manageable for the client. She may draw on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and mindfulness techniques when these fit the person’s goals.
In practice she listens for patterns that keep people stuck and helps them try different ways of responding. That can include looking at thoughts and beliefs, practicing present-moment awareness, and planning practical steps to reduce overwhelm. Conversations are direct and grounded in everyday concerns rather than jargon or tests.
Rebecca has experience supporting people after bereavement, separation, and emotional or domestic harm. She also works with issues such as body image, chronic illness and caregiver stress. Her background includes work with young people through counselling and bereavement services.
Sessions are focused on understanding what’s happening now and building manageable ways forward. If anger shows up as snapping at close people, workplace frustration, or long‑held resentment, she helps clients name the pattern and try alternatives that feel doable. To begin, readers are asked to confirm session options before booking.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Rebecca commonly uses Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy. Client-centred work means the therapist follows the client’s lead, asks open questions and helps people make sense of their own choices and feelings. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and introduces practical experiments to test new ways of responding. Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and increase awareness of triggers.Choosing an approach is a collaborative part of the process. Rebecca will talk with each client about their concerns, goals and preferences, and then suggest which methods to try first. That decision can change over time as the work progresses and as what helps becomes clearer.
Practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions into a busy week and keeping appointments when travel is difficult. Because session formats were not specified in the biography, readers should confirm the exact online options before booking. Registered or accredited professionals often find that shorter check-ins, video conversations or phone calls can suit different situations, and Rebecca will help decide what fits a client’s routine and needs.
