About Rebecca

Rebecca Matthews offers calm, direct support for people feeling overwhelmed by relationships, grief and low self-esteem. She helps clients untangle anxiety, depression and the strain of major life changes. Sessions are straightforward and aimed at small practical steps you can try between meetings.

Rebecca has six years of professional experience and is a BACP Therapist - Registered Member MBACP. She works from a person-centred stance, which means she listens closely and follows each person’s pace.

Background and approach

Where useful, she also brings in cognitive behavioural techniques and mindfulness to help with unhelpful thoughts and strong emotions. In sessions Rebecca helps people clarify what they want and set manageable goals. She talks through relationship and intimacy concerns, coping after loss, and patterns such as avoidance, codependency or repeated hurt.

She also supports those struggling with panic attacks, feelings of emptiness, guilt and shame, and problems linked to autism or attachment. Her approach is collaborative and down-to-earth. Conversations focus on what is happening now and on small changes that can make a difference.

Practical tools, breathing and grounding exercises, and clear cognitive strategies are all used when they suit the client. People meet Rebecca by video, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. She works with adults in the United Kingdom and conducts sessions in English.

To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions to fit their needs.

Online support

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps you notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting swept away by them and then focus on actions that match your values. It can be useful for anxiety, depression and coping with life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current bonds and intimacy; it helps when trust, abandonment or repeated relationship problems are central concerns. Choosing the right approach is a process you do together. Rebecca will listen to your goals and preferences and suggest which methods to try first. Over several sessions she checks what is helping and adjusts the way you work so it stays useful and realistic for your life. Online sessions make those conversations easier to fit into a busy week. Video calls let you use body language and visual cues, phone sessions can be lighter on bandwidth and easier to squeeze into a break, and live chat or text-based messaging can suit short check-ins or people who prefer writing. These formats support consistent work on coping skills, behavioural experiments and mindfulness practices without needing to travel, and they allow a therapist to guide practical exercises and written tasks between sessions.
