About me
Hi there! I’m Rebecca, it’s lovely to ‘meet you’
If you're feeling anxious, overwhelmed, stuck or finding life difficult to cope with, you're not alone. You may be struggling with anxiety, stress, low self-esteem, relationship difficulties, bereavement, burnout, or simply feeling like you've lost sight of who you are. Whatever has brought you here, you don't have to face it on your own.
I offer a warm, confidential and non-judgemental space where you can talk openly, at your own pace. My aim is to help you feel heard, understood and accepted, giving you the opportunity to explore your thoughts, emotions and experiences without fear of criticism or pressure.
My practice is neuroaffirming, and I welcome neurodivergent clients, including those who are autistic, have ADHD, or are exploring whether they may be neurodivergent. I recognise that neurodiversity is a natural variation in how people experience and interact with the world. Together, we'll work in a way that respects your individual needs, strengths and ways of communicating, without trying to change who you are.
I know that reaching out for counselling can feel daunting. Taking that first step often takes courage, and I'll do my best to make the process feel as comfortable and welcoming as possible from the very beginning.
I work with adults experiencing a wide range of difficulties, including:
• Anxiety and excessive worry
• Stress and burnout
• Depression and low mood
• Low self-esteem and confidence
• Relationship and family difficulties
• Bereavement and loss
• Life transitions and identity exploration
• ADHD and autism
• Pregnancy, parenthood and significant life changes
I offer face-to-face counselling in Shaw, Oldham, as well as online and telephone counselling across the UK. Whether you're looking for short-term support or longer-term therapy, we can work together at a pace that feels right for you.
Training, qualifications & experience
My approach is person centred so my practice is based around you, meeting you where you are, moving at your pace.
Alongside longer-term counselling, I am also trained in Single Session Therapy. Single Session Therapy offers focused therapeutic support without the expectation of ongoing weekly sessions. Some clients feel one session is enough, others choose to schedule more later or to progress to longer term counselling – the choice is always yours. If you would like to explore more about this please reach out!
Qualifications:
- Msc Positive Psychology and counselling
- Bsc Psychology, psychotherapy and counselling
I am a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and work within their ethical framework.
Member organisations
BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.
