Rebecca Bennett, BACP

Rebecca Bennett is a qualified person-centred counsellor with BACP membership and 8 years of professional experience working in the United Kingdom. She has completed additional training in trauma therapy and currently works for an organisation that provides a specialist counselling service for victims of sexual and domestic violence as one of their therapists. BACP indicates membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy and reflects her professional affiliation.

Rebecca offers a kind, welcoming, non-judgmental space where people can speak openly and feel heard. She believes that when people are afforded that kind of connection, growth and healing can begin to take place. Her approach is warm and attentive, focused on creating a steady therapeutic relationship that supports change.

Working in an integrated way, Rebecca blends person-centred foundations with trauma-focused methods and draws on additional techniques when they suit a person’s needs. She can introduce psychoeducation and practical exercises, some informed by CBT and polyvagal theory, all tailored to individual circumstances. Rebecca works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, depression, and life changes, including divorce or separation and experiences of domestic violence. She also supports concerns such as guilt and shame, questions of life purpose, and building self-love.

Where trauma is present, Rebecca collaborates with clients to explore support networks and develop a sense of stability, working at a pace that feels safe and manageable. She aims to equip people with tools to better manage emotions and triggers while providing steady therapeutic support. She looks forward to working with individuals seeking compassionate, trauma-informed care.

Trauma-Informed and Client-Centered Care Online

Rebecca uses client-centred therapy to create a supportive, non-judgmental space where a person’s experiences and perspectives guide the work. This approach focuses on empathic listening and valuing the client’s own goals, helping with issues like anxiety, depression, relationship strain, and life transitions.

She also incorporates trauma-focused therapy when past harm affects current wellbeing. Trauma-focused work helps people build stability, understand triggers, and develop practical skills to manage responses, with attention to pacing and personal safety.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Rebecca works collaboratively with each person to identify which methods best fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting strategies as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility: sessions by video calls or phone allow real-time conversation, while live chat and text-based messaging provide more immediate, shorter-form options. These formats make it easier to access consistent support around work, family, and location, and they allow licensed professionals to tailor contact to what helps each person engage and benefit most.
