About Rebecca

Rebecca "Becca" Mather is a BACP-registered counsellor based in the United Kingdom with four years' experience. She works with adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression and relationship strains. Parenting concerns, family problems and coping with life changes also feature among the issues she supports.

Becca writes plainly and keeps sessions practical. She listens and helps people sort through what feels most urgent. Conversations often focus on breaking down overwhelming thoughts into small, manageable steps. She uses mindfulness and acceptance-based ideas alongside person-centred listening.

She also works with people facing parenting and pregnancy-related difficulties, including postnatal anxiety and postnatal depression, and offers understanding around hyperemesis gravidarum and related nausea in pregnancy. Her own experience informs how she speaks about early parenthood and the pressures that come with it.

Approaches in her practice include Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Client-Centred Therapy, Mindfulness Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy. Becca introduces techniques as invitations rather than requirements, and she adapts pace and tools to what the person prefers.

Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented when helpful. She aims to help people notice small changes that make daily life easier. If someone wants to try out therapy, Becca asks them to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session to see how the approach fits.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and committing to values-based action. It helps when worry or negative thinking make day-to-day life smaller. Client-Centred Therapy places emphasis on being listened to and understood; sessions aim to let the person lead the pace and topics. Mindfulness Therapy uses simple attention practices to reduce overwhelm and build steadier responses to stress.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Becca treats this as a collaborative process and will discuss what feels most useful. Together they try methods out, review what helps, and shape future sessions around the person's goals and preferences.

The therapist's biography does not specify session formats, so confirm the exact online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy routine, shorten travel time, and allow quieter check-ins during a lunch break or on a day when leaving home is difficult. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt mindfulness exercises and solution-focused tasks for remote sessions so people can practise skills between meetings.
