About Rebecca
Rebecca Matthews offers calm, down-to-earth support for people facing relationship strain, loss, low self-esteem, anxiety and stress. She presents a straightforward, non-judgemental presence and helps clients set clear goals to move forward. Rebecca uses psychotherapy methods alongside a person-centred stance to make sessions practical and focused.
Rebecca is a BACP therapist, which means she is a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. She has six years of experience working with bereavement, depression, attachment concerns and relationship issues.
Background and approach
Her approach balances listening with tools that can be used between sessions. In practice she offers collaborative goal-setting and uses techniques from cognitive behavioural therapy and dialectical behaviour therapy when helpful. Mindfulness-based techniques are also part of her toolkit to help manage anxiety and panic symptoms.
The emphasis is on what helps the client live better day to day. She also pays attention to patterns such as codependency, communication difficulties, feelings of emptiness, and doubts around commitment. Rebecca can support people dealing with shame, guilt, jealousy, infidelity, and isolation.
She brings this practical focus to conversations about attachment and abandonment issues. Sessions are conducted in English and she works from the United Kingdom. Prospective clients are invited to ask questions so they can understand how her style might fit their needs before starting work together.

How Rebecca works online
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Rebecca will listen to your concerns and work with you to choose methods that fit your goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process where techniques are adapted as progress unfolds.
If you want online sessions, please confirm the current session options before booking. Registered or accredited professionals, including therapists who use these approaches, often find remote work helps people fit therapy into busy lives. Online sessions can make it easier to schedule around work or family commitments, allow shorter check-ins when needed and remove travel time. They also let clients try interventions such as mindfulness exercises, behavioural experiments and values-based planning from home while discussing results in the next session.
