Rebecca Hepburn, BACP

Rebecca Hepburn is a UK-based therapist and counsellor with five years of clinical experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, grief, low self-esteem and depression. She holds the BACP credential - the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - which reflects her connection to a recognised UK professional body. Rebecca has worked across UK psychiatric hospitals, schools and private practice, gaining experience with clients of varied ages and backgrounds and a wide range of presenting concerns.

Her practice focuses on areas such as young adult issues, neurodivergence, self-harm, bereavement, prejudice and discrimination, codependency, sexual trauma and domestic violence, communication problems, PTSD, body image and feelings of emptiness, among others. Rebecca also offers support for relationship and intimacy-related issues including commitment, attachment and kink-related concerns, as well as practical challenges like parenting, career stress and coping with life changes.

She adopts a client-centered stance that recognises each person as the expert in their own story, combining empathic listening with therapeutic tools drawn from approaches such as cognitive behavioral and narrative methods. Rebecca aims to help people find greater clarity, resilience and agency as they navigate change, and she practices from the United Kingdom on GMT time zone.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Rebecca works from a client-centered perspective that prioritises the person's own experience and strengths, offering empathic listening and collaborative goal-setting to help people feel understood and find their own direction. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify and gently shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviours - a practical approach often suited to stress, anxiety, low mood and sleep or eating concerns. Narrative Therapy helps people reframe and make sense of life stories by exploring how problems are spoken about and by opening space for preferred, more empowering narratives.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Rebecca works collaboratively with each person to determine what fits best based on their needs, goals and preferences. This means adapting methods over time and combining tools when that best supports progress.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to access support across distances and time zones, and to continue therapy through life transitions when in-person sessions are difficult to arrange.
