About Rebecca
Rebecca Hepburn is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, grief and low self-esteem. She works with clients through depression, anger, parenting challenges and issues around intimacy and sexuality. Rebecca also supports those dealing with neurodivergence, codependency and the impact of trauma and abuse.
She uses a straightforward, listening-first style. Rebecca aims to create a space where someone can be heard and begin to make sense of difficult feelings. Sessions focus on clear steps you can take between meetings as well as conversations that build understanding.
Rebecca draws on a mix of practical and reflective methods. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, is used to spot unhelpful thinking and try small changes. Client-Centred Therapy puts the person’s experience at the centre of the work. Narrative and psychodynamic ideas are brought in to look at personal stories and recurring patterns.
Her background includes five years working in UK psychiatric hospitals, schools and private practice. That range of settings informs how she approaches different problems and life stages. Rebecca is based in the United Kingdom and lists registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.
Sessions are conducted in English and Rebecca is open to working with people from other countries. If you are unsure whether her style fits your needs, she asks new clients to complete a short questionnaire so you can be matched and schedule a first appointment.
Therapeutic approaches used in online sessions
Rebecca often combines Client-Centred Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to shape online work. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening, reflecting and following what matters most to the person, which helps when someone needs to feel understood. CBT looks at unhelpful thinking and behaviour and uses small, practical experiments to reduce anxiety, improve mood and tackle sleep or eating problems.Finding the right approach is treated as a collaborative process. Rebecca will talk with each person about their goals, preferences and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together you will decide which methods to try and adjust them as you go along to find what fits best.
Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week and reduce travel time. It also allows people in different time zones to work together, with scheduling adapted around availability. Confirm the current session options before booking so you know which formats are offered. Many clients value being able to check in from a quieter space, use shorter check-ins when needed, or choose an option that avoids being on camera if that feels better.
