About Rebecca
Rebecca Nia, BACP, is a UK-based counsellor with five years' experience. She works in an integrative way and tailors sessions to each person's needs. Rebecca is warm and informal, and she aims to make it easier to begin difficult conversations.
Her practice often supports people dealing with anxiety, stress, grief, phobias and trauma. She also helps with chronic pain, relationship issues, self-esteem and life transitions. Rebecca offers a calm, steady presence while clients talk through their worries and next steps.
Background and approach
Rebecca blends humanistic, client-centred ideas with practical tools. She uses cognitive-behavioural techniques and mindfulness to help people notice patterns and try new ways of responding. Sessions are interactive so work is done together rather than imposed by the therapist.
She pays attention to how the body responds to stress and sometimes brings gentle body-focused work into sessions to help unsettle intense emotions. Narrative ideas are used to help people tell and reshape their life stories when needed. Rebecca describes her space as warm and non-judgemental.
She focuses on building trust and helping people feel seen and heard. Many clients find that unpacking their experiences with a steady other helps them take clearer steps forward. If someone decides to begin, Rebecca guides them through practical goals and coping strategies.
She works at the person’s pace and adjusts techniques as things change over time.
Approaches that inform online work and what they do
Rebecca uses attachment-based ways of thinking to help people understand how early bonds shape current relationships. This can help when trust, abandonment or attachment issues are causing repeated patterns in friendships or partnerships.She also uses client-centred practice, which places the person’s experience at the centre of each session. This means the counsellor listens closely and follows the client’s pace, helping them find their own solutions rather than prescribing steps.
Cognitive behavioural techniques are brought in to spot unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviours. These are practical tools aimed at reducing anxiety, addressing phobias and changing avoidant patterns.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Rebecca treats this as a collaborative process and will discuss what feels most useful based on goals and preferences. She adjusts techniques over time as progress and needs change.
Online therapy offers flexibility for busy lives. Video calls let people read facial cues and practise exposures or role-play. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat or text-based messaging can suit those who prefer writing to speak and make it easier to fit support into a work break or between commitments.
