About Rebecca
Rebecca Stokes is a BACP therapist based in the United Kingdom with three years of practice. She supports adults and young people with a wide range of emotional difficulties, including stress, anxiety, depression and relationship concerns. Rebecca also works with issues around self-esteem, life changes and LGBT matters.
Rebecca describes her work as collaborative and person-centred. She treats people as the experts on their own lives and moves at a pace that feels manageable. Sessions focus on talking through current difficulties, spotting repeated patterns and developing small, practical steps to feel better.
She uses elements of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy alongside client-centred and mindfulness approaches. That variety lets her adapt how she works depending on what a person needs. Techniques may include noticing unhelpful thoughts, practising grounding or trying new ways of responding to stressful situations.
Her background includes work with bereavement services and counselling organisations, where she gained experience supporting emotional distress and grief. Rebecca has particular familiarity with challenges faced by young adults, such as leaving home, study pressures and early career stress.
In sessions she aims to help people make sense of what they are feeling and to test practical changes between meetings. The focus is on clear, achievable steps rather than lengthy theory. People do not need to arrive with everything figured out - beginning with a single concern is fine.
How Rebecca uses common approaches in online sessions
Client-Centred Therapy places the person at the centre of the work. The therapist listens without directing and helps the client make sense of their own experience. This approach supports issues like low self-esteem, life transitions and feeling stuck.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings and actions. It uses straightforward techniques to test unhelpful thoughts and try different responses. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression and stress-related problems.
Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention exercises to reduce overwhelm and reactivity. It can help with anxiety, racing thoughts and improving concentration in daily life.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Rebecca will discuss options with the client and decide together what to try first. This collaborative process looks at goals, preferences and what feels manageable week by week.
Practical benefits of online sessions depend on the formats offered. The biography does not specify which formats are used, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling around study, shifts or busy days. It also allows shorter check-ins when needed and removes travel time, which can help maintain regular sessions alongside a young adult's changing schedule.
