About Rebecca
Rebecca (Becky) Holmes is a counsellor who focuses on helping people who are struggling to cope with everyday life. She offers calm, practical support for worries such as anxiety, low mood and phobias, and she talks people through small steps that can make daily life feel easier. Becky describes wellbeing as how we feel and how we manage day-to-day demands.
She does not expect anyone to feel happy all the time, but she will work with clients to find what is getting in the way of coping.
Background and approach
Her approach aims to identify what keeps problems going and to build manageable ways forward. In sessions she uses a mix of approaches rooted in talking and in practical tools. Cognitive behavioural techniques help with patterns of thought and behaviour.
Attachment-based ideas look at how relationships shape feelings and reactions. Psychodynamic thinking may help uncover long-standing feelings that influence current struggles. Becky has three years of professional experience and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.
She offers online formats including video, phone and messaging so people can choose what fits their life. Typical concerns she supports include stress, trauma, grief, self-esteem and sleep problems, along with eating and addiction-related issues. She also works with relationship and parenting challenges and with issues linked to chronic health or caregiving pressure.
Becky aims to make sessions straightforward, practical and grounded in what the client wants to change.
Approaches to online therapy that fit your life
Rebecca uses cognitive behavioural ideas to help people spot and change unhelpful thoughts and habits. This approach is useful for anxiety, panic, phobias and low mood because it breaks problems down into small, manageable steps.She also draws on attachment-based therapy to look at how early and close relationships shape current feelings and reactions. That work can be helpful when people notice repeated patterns in relationships or struggle with trust and closeness.
Choosing the right approach is a team effort. Becky will talk with clients about their goals and try out methods that match those aims. Over time she adjusts the plan so therapy stays useful and relevant to what the client needs.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging so people can pick what suits their routine. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can fit short breaks or low bandwidth, and messaging or live chat can be used for brief check-ins or ongoing support between calls. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, care commitments and daily life while keeping the focus on steady progress.
