Rebecca Burchell, BACP

Rebecca Burchell welcomes people who are feeling stuck, overwhelmed or unsure what to do next. She offers calm listening and straightforward support for issues such as stress, anxiety, relationship problems and coping with life changes. Rebecca identifies first steps with each person and works at a pace that feels manageable.

Rebecca holds BACP accreditation, which is shown here as BACP. She has three years of professional experience and combines that work with a school counselling role and past placement experience supporting survivors of domestic abuse. This background informs how she listens to difficult stories and stays focused on what matters to each person.

In a session Rebecca will help people talk through their thoughts and feelings. She pays attention to important relationships, key life events and how those shape reactions now. Sessions aim to move the story from "what's wrong with me" to "what's happened to me" so people can begin to make different choices.

Rebecca supports people facing a wide range of concerns including relationship and intimacy issues, family and parenting strains, career stresses, trauma and abuse, addiction, ADHD, body image and chronic health challenges. She also works with concerns such as low self-esteem, anger, sleep and eating difficulties.

Her style is respectful and compassionate. She focuses on helping people feel truly heard, to process their experiences and to build more helpful ways of coping. Practical steps and emotional understanding are both part of the work.

Approaches that guide online work and choice

Rebecca draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people make sense of difficult feelings and relationships. One common approach she uses focuses on exploring life events and attachment patterns to understand how past experiences shape current reactions; this can help with relationship difficulties, abandonment concerns and attachment issues. Another common strand is practical coping work that teaches skills for managing anxiety, stress, sleep and everyday mood, useful for people facing chronic health challenges or high stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss options, listen to your goals and preferences, and decide collaboratively which ways of working to try. That means methods can be adapted as progress is reviewed and priorities change.

If you are considering online sessions, confirm the specific session formats before booking since the biography does not list formats. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow quicker check-ins when needed. It can also allow a quieter, less pressured conversation when people prefer not to be on camera or need shorter appointments during a break at work. Registered or accredited professionals can support progress through focused online sessions that align with your aims.
