About Rebecca
Rebecca Briggs is a counsellor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem and depression. She also supports people facing trauma and abuse, anger, career stress and major life changes.
Background and approach
Rebecca aims to make the first step easier by offering steady, compassionate support as people begin the work of change. Rebecca has six years of professional experience and holds NCPS as her listed credential.
She offers a calm, non-judgemental space where people can talk through what matters to them. Sessions are practical and focused on what a person wants to change right now.
Her approach blends relationship-focused and evidence-informed methods. She draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early bonds shape current patterns.
She also uses client-centred listening to put the person’s priorities front and centre. Rebecca uses cognitive behavioural tools to help people break unhelpful thinking and test new behaviours.
She also integrates Emotionally-Focused Therapy elements when exploring strong emotions and relationship dynamics. The profile also notes use of the Gottman Method as one of the approaches she brings to her work.
In sessions she listens, reflects and offers small, manageable strategies. Tasks between sessions are offered when helpful.
Rebecca aims to help people build coping skills and steady routines that fit day-to-day life. Her work includes support for some focused issues such as abandonment, attachment issues, compulsions and OCD, phobias, post-traumatic stress, self-harm and young adult concerns.
She also offers guidance around hospice and end-of-life matters and compassion fatigue.
Approaches that guide online sessions
Rebecca uses a small set of complementary approaches to guide online work. The Gottman Method focuses on practical ways to improve communication and reduce repeated conflict patterns. It offers concrete exercises and conversation skills to try in day-to-day interactions.Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current reactions. It helps people notice patterns in how they connect and offers alternatives that feel safer and more dependable. Client-Centred Therapy places the person’s experience at the heart of sessions, with the counsellor following the person’s priorities and offering reflective, non-judgemental listening.
Choosing the right approach is part of the process. Rebecca will work collaboratively to decide which methods fit a person’s goals and situation. She checks in regularly and adapts techniques as needs change so the plan stays practical and useful.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and shared exercises. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging suit shorter check-ins or people who find typing easier to express themselves. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit around work, study and family life.
