Young People (aged 11-18)
Adults
I have many years of experience working with young people and lots of success too. I understand how daunting it can be meeting someone new and beginning counselling, but I will provide you with a safe space where it’s ok to talk about how you feel. I am an adult but I do not have the same role as the other adults in your life- I’m not a teacher trying to get you the best grades or a parent telling you to behave. I am simply a friendly face who will listen and give you the chance to find effective ways of being you. Everything you tell me is confidential (unless I believe you are in serious danger) and we can talk about things that are important to you and how you feel, with the goal being to help you feel happier in everyday life.
It is very likely that you have many pressures in your life and very little time for you- and this is what I can offer you- time to think about yourself and what makes you happy- and how to get more of it into your life. There may be elements of your past that you wish to explore, which can help you to understand where you’ve ended up, or you may want to focus on whatever is bothering you at the moment. My flexible approach will allow you to work on whatever you are ready, willing and able to do. I understand how difficult it can be to find a good balance in life and to always feel like no matter how hard you try; you don’t end up where you want to be. I have a wide range of experience working with a large variety of problems and I would love to help you find what you need to overcome yours.
“I wasn’t very satisfied with my life when I first contacted Rebecca. Now, after just a few sessions, I feel like an entirely different person. I can’t recommend seeing Rebecca enough!”

"Just talking to Rebecca weekly has helped me get a lot of things off my chest that have been stressing me out for a long time. I am feeling a lot happier and stress free!"
Paige, age 14
“I have learnt how to deal with some complex family issues and how to actually de-stress. I know how to be more myself now. I’ve been able to communicate better with friends and family and I can actually look forward to the future thanks to Rebecca”

“Working with Rebecca was a life-changing experience. I learned how to appreciate the difficult moments of life and not let them define me. Counselling with Rebecca brought out the characteristics and talents that I never knew I possessed. If for any reason you are feeling stuck, I highly recommend working with her.”
Angela, age 40
I have worked with many mental health professionals but before I saw Rebecca, I didn't understand my anxiety and I had been suffering for years. After working with her, I now understand myself and I can confidently say I am going to be ok when I never thought I would be. She's the best counsellor I've ever seen and I've seen a lot!
Lily, age 21
Rebecca has supported me through such a difficult time in my life and no matter what the problem was, she had a way of helping me. I am so much stronger thanks to the techniques she has taught me. I highly recommend her!
Hannah, age 31
“Rebecca has a very calm and kind demeanour that put me at ease straight away, she helped me so much in the relatively short time I have been seeing her. With Rebecca's help I have the tools I need to feel more confident and more secure within myself"
Lucy, 22
“I feel like my old self again now, thanks to talking to Rebecca. She never judged me and helped me get over my past trauma"
