Rebecca (Becky) Thomas, BACP

Rebecca (Becky) Thomas is a counsellor who focuses on helping people make sense of difficult emotions and life events. She uses a person-centred approach and aims to provide a calm, non-judgemental space where clients lead the conversation. Becky draws on eight years of therapeutic experience and holds BACP membership.

Becky qualified on a British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy course in 2021 after training in a range of settings. Her background includes work in an NHS GP practice, with imprisoned women in a high-security prison, and at a mental health charity in an area facing severe socioeconomic challenges. She also holds a BSc (Hons) in Psychology that was accredited by the British Psychological Society.

In sessions she listens with empathy and avoids pushing topics a person is not ready to address. Clients set the pace and choose what to bring to each meeting. Becky aims to help people tap into their own strengths and develop practical skills for coping and managing day-to-day difficulties.

Her practice includes support for stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem, depression, addictions, relationship and intimacy-related issues, and caring for others. Additional focus areas include ADHD, aging and geriatric issues, caregiver stress, chronic illness and disability, and body image concerns.

Becky offers live chat and text sessions in the afternoons and evenings UK time and is able to work with people internationally. Sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, clients use the Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire before booking.

How a person-centred approach works online

Rebecca uses Client-Centred Therapy, often called person-centred work, which centres on listening without judgement and following the client’s pace. This approach helps people who want to understand emotions, process past events, or build self-compassion by creating space to speak and be heard.

Her practice also emphasises practical support: helping clients identify their own strengths and trying out small skills or coping strategies between sessions. This can suit people dealing with anxiety, grief, stress, caregiver strain, chronic health concerns, or life transitions.

Finding the right approach tends to be collaborative. Becky will talk with each person about their goals, try out ways of working, and adjust based on what helps most. Together they decide which methods and pace feel most useful for the client’s situation.

Becky currently offers live chat and text sessions in the afternoons and evenings (UK time). If you prefer other formats, please confirm the session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit conversations into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins, reduce travel time, and support people who find writing their thoughts helpful. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists commonly use online sessions to maintain continuity of care across locations.
