Rebecca (Becky) Thomas , BACP

Rebecca (Becky) Thomas is a counsellor who has been working in therapeutic settings since 2018. She holds a Bachelor of Science with Honours in Psychology and is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, MBACP. Becky uses a client-centred way of working and speaks English with clients in the United Kingdom and internationally.

Becky offers a warm, non-judgemental space where people can talk about stress, anxiety, grief, trauma, low self-esteem, eating and sleeping difficulties, addictions, bipolar mood concerns, ADHD, and a wide range of life changes. She listens with empathy and helps people notice their own strengths. Sessions aim to help people feel calmer and more able to cope with day-to-day life.

Her background includes work in an NHS GP surgery, support roles at a mental health charity in a deprived area, and time working with women in a closed-category, maximum security prison. These experiences exposed her to many different life situations and ways people cope with distress.

In practice Becky draws on client-centred therapy to create a respectful and accepting atmosphere. She supports people to explore feelings at their own pace and to develop practical skills and personal insights. Conversations focus on what matters to the person and on small, achievable steps forward.

Becky offers several online session formats including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule according to therapist availability.

How client-centred work translates to online therapy

Client-centred therapy focuses on an empathic, non-judgemental way of working where the counsellor listens closely and supports people to make their own sense of difficulties. This approach helps with issues such as anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, low self-esteem and relationship concerns by prioritising what the person wants to talk about and by building self-awareness and self-compassion.

Becky’s practice uses that same client-centred stance online. She will work collaboratively with each person to decide how sessions should go, and to choose approaches and pacing that fit individual needs and goals. That choice is part of the therapy: trying routes and adjusting them together until the right fit is found.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits shorter check-ins, and messaging lets people reflect in writing and at flexible times. These options make therapy more accessible around work, family and travel commitments and help people fit support into busy lives.
