Rebecca (Becky) Thomas, BACP

Rebecca (Becky) Thomas is a counsellor with eight years of experience who brings a calm, patient presence to sessions. She trained in Person-Centred therapy and holds BACP membership, and she aims to offer a non-judgemental space where people can talk about what matters to them. Becky uses listening, reflection and gentle questioning to help people make sense of painful feelings and find their own next steps.

Becky prepared for this work with a BSc (Hons) in Psychology that is accredited by the British Psychological Society and a Person-Centred qualification completed in 2021. Her training included placements in a GP practice, a maximum-security prison working with imprisoned women, and a mental health charity in a deprived area. These roles exposed her to a wide range of difficulties and life circumstances.

In sessions she focuses on helping people process trauma, manage anxiety and stress, and develop more self-compassion. She also supports people dealing with grief, addiction, depression, bipolar challenges, ADHD and relationship or intimacy-related concerns. Becky will work at the client’s pace and respects their control over what gets discussed.

Her approach aims to help people access their own strengths and build practical skills and coping strategies. She speaks plainly about emotions and offers space to make sense of the past and present. Becky also has an interest in psychiatric pharmacology which informs conversations about medication alongside therapy when clients raise it.

Becky currently offers live chat and text sessions in the afternoons and evenings UK time and takes clients from anywhere in the world. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions according to her availability.

How Becky uses person-centred work online

Person-Centred therapy focuses on listening, empathy and acceptance. The therapist aims to help the person feel heard and understood, so they can explore difficult feelings and decide on next steps. This approach is often chosen for issues such as anxiety, grief, relationship concerns and processing past trauma.

Becky also draws on her background in psychology to discuss how emotions, behaviour and life events connect. That can help when people want practical ideas for coping with stress, sleep difficulties, addiction or the effects of long-term illness. Conversations about psychiatric medication are possible when clients raise them, informed by her interest in pharmacology.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Becky will collaborate with each person to decide what helps most, adjusting the focus as needs and goals change. She aims to match pace and style to the client so therapy feels manageable and useful.

Becky currently offers live chat and text sessions in the afternoons and evenings UK time. If you prefer another format, please confirm available session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy routine, allow check-ins during a lunch break or offer a lower-bandwidth way to connect without video. Registered and accredited professionals can provide effective support via text-based formats when that suits the person’s needs.
