About Rebecca
Rebecca Hepburn is a BACP-registered counsellor working in the United Kingdom with five years of clinical experience. She helps people who are under stress, dealing with anxiety or depression, managing grief, or struggling with self-esteem and relationship problems.
Rebecca often works with adults dealing with parenting strain, family problems and life changes. She also supports people facing issues linked to trauma, abuse, neurodivergence and intimate or sexual concerns. Her practice includes work around eating and sleeping difficulties, anger, and challenges connected to identity and LGBT matters.
In sessions she listens first and asks practical questions to understand what matters most to the person in front of her. Conversations focus on what is happening now and on small, manageable changes that can make daily life easier. She uses straightforward, evidence-informed approaches rather than jargon-heavy explanations.
Rebecca has experience across NHS psychiatric settings, schools and private practice in the UK. That background means she is used to working with different kinds of problems and different life stages. She draws on four main ways of working to suit the issue and the person.
People who come to her often want clearer communication at home, help coping after loss or separation, or strategies to reduce anxiety and overwhelm. She supports adults who are navigating family tensions or the ongoing demands of parenting, and aims to help people feel more able to manage everyday pressures.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and building a respectful conversation. It helps people feel heard and identify what matters most to them when dealing with stress, grief or relationship strain.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours. It is practical and goal-focused, useful for anxiety, depression and sleep or eating difficulties.
Narrative Therapy helps people separate themselves from problems by looking at the stories they tell about their lives. It is often useful for identity issues, family conflict and recovery after trauma.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Rebecca will discuss what feels most useful and adapt methods to fit a client's goals, needs and preferences. This is a collaborative process and can change as therapy progresses.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm the available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around family life, offer shorter telephone check-ins when needed, or avoid travel time. Many people find remote sessions help them keep therapy consistent alongside parenting and work commitments.
