About Rebecca
Rebecca (Becky) Holmes is a BACP-registered counsellor based in the United Kingdom with three years of professional experience. She works with adults who are struggling to cope with everyday pressures and emotional overwhelm. Her focus includes stress, anxiety, depression, sleep and eating problems, self-esteem concerns, and difficulties linked to trauma and abuse.
Becky explains wellbeing as how someone feels and copes day to day, not as constant happiness. She offers a straightforward, practical way to look at what is making life harder and what might help. Sessions typically involve talking through current problems, noticing patterns, and trying different ways of responding to difficult feelings.
Her approach draws on attachment-based ideas, client-centred listening, cognitive behavioural techniques, mindfulness practices, and psychodynamic thinking. That means she will often combine exploring past relationship patterns with simple, evidence-informed steps to manage symptoms now. Mindfulness exercises and CBT-style tasks can be used to reduce anxiety and improve sleep.
Becky also works with issues around relationships, intimacy, parenting strains, and addictions. She pays attention to how past loss or abandonment affects present trust and connection. Where relevant she will address body image, eating and food-related concerns, and the stress faced by carers or those living with chronic illness.
She accepts international clients and runs sessions through the site subscription model. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and arrange an initial appointment via the online booking flow.
How her approaches work online
Rebecca commonly combines attachment-based ideas with cognitive behavioural techniques and client-centred listening. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships affect current connections and trust, helping people notice patterns that repeat in relationships. Cognitive behavioural techniques focus on changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviours with practical exercises to reduce anxiety, improve sleep, or address low mood. Client-centred listening means the therapist pays close attention to what matters to the client and reflects that back to help clarify goals.Finding the right blend of approaches is part of the process. Becky will work collaboratively to decide what feels most useful for a person’s goals, needs and preferences. She adapts work as progress is made and as new issues come up, checking in about what is helping and what could change.
