Rebecca "Becca" Mather, BACP

Rebecca "Becca" Mather offers a compassionate, down-to-earth approach for people who are feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, burnout, low mood, or life transitions. She creates a warm, non-judgmental space where clients can be heard and validated, and she draws on both professional training and personal experience to support people through difficult periods such as pregnancy, early parenthood, and postnatal depression and anxiety. She also has direct experience supporting women who have experienced hyperemesis gravidarum and related pregnancy nausea and vomiting.

Rebecca works with a wide range of concerns including stress, relationships, parenting challenges, low self-esteem, sleep difficulties, anger, career worries, depression, compassion fatigue, and ADHD. She is comfortable addressing family and blended family issues, abandonment and commitment concerns, communication and control problems, and the emotional impact of separation or divorce. Her practice also includes support for body image issues, eating and food-related challenges, feelings of emptiness, and fatherhood issues.

In sessions Rebecca uses approaches such as mindfulness and emotional freedom techniques - also known as EFT or tapping - alongside principles from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and client-centered work. She emphasizes choice and collaboration, offering interventions as invitations rather than prescriptions so clients can try what feels aligned to them. Rebecca holds a BACP credential, the UK professional body for counselling and psychotherapy, and aims to help people reclaim energy, clarity, and a greater sense of balance in daily life.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Rebecca combines Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and client-centered and mindfulness-informed techniques to help clients clarify values, develop psychological flexibility, and increase present-moment awareness. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on identifying what matters to someone and building practical skills to act in line with those values even when difficult thoughts or feelings are present - it can help with anxiety, low mood, and life transitions. Client-centered work emphasizes empathy, genuine listening, and a non-judgmental therapeutic relationship so clients feel seen and able to explore sensitive issues at their own pace. Mindfulness therapy offers simple, accessible practices to reduce reactivity and improve focus, which can support stress, sleep problems, and overwhelming emotions.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Rebecca works collaboratively to tailor methods to each person’s needs, goals, and preferences. She offers options as invitations and will help clients decide which techniques fit best, adjusting the approach over time based on what is most helpful.

Online therapy with Rebecca is available by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to access support around work, family, and daily commitments. These options provide flexibility to schedule sessions in ways that suit different routines, and they allow people to engage in therapy from locations that are convenient for them.
