About Rebecca

Rebecca Pook offers help for people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, grief and relationship strain. She supports those dealing with trauma, parenting pressures, career worries and issues such as codependency and low self-esteem. Rebecca works with warmth and compassion to provide a calm space for people to talk and reflect.

Her style is practical and collaborative. She aims to be alongside each person, helping them notice patterns of thinking and behaviour. When appropriate she offers gentle challenge and encourages trying out different ways of handling situations. The work focuses on small, manageable steps as well as understanding underlying feelings.

Rebecca trained to the level recognised by the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, listed as BACP. She has five years of professional experience and brings that background into sessions. She draws on several therapeutic approaches to match what feels most helpful for each person.

Common topics she covers include grief, bipolar and depression, compassion fatigue, ADHD, attachment and abandonment concerns, plus issues linked to chronic illness or caring roles. Rebecca also supports people with substance and alcohol challenges and domestic violence recovery concerns.

Counselling with Rebecca is framed as a joint process. She helps people find ways to manage stressors beyond their control and to discover personal strengths. People typically use sessions to reflect, try new responses and build steadier routines over time.

How her approaches translate to online counselling

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting back what you say. It helps people who need a steady, accepting space to work through feelings and build self-understanding. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on the patterns of emotion that shape close relationships and personal responses, which can help with attachment, codependency and relationship stress. Existential Therapy invites people to talk about meaning, choices and responsibility, useful when life changes or a sense of direction feel challenging.

Deciding which approach feels right is part of the work. Rebecca will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and shape sessions around what seems most helpful. That means trying things out together and adjusting the plan as progress occurs.

The biography does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit therapy around work and family life, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people use sessions from different locations, which can help maintain continuity during busy periods. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists often find that the same therapeutic approaches work well in online sessions when tailored to each person.
