Rebecca (Becky) Thomas

Rebecca (Becky) Thomas is a counsellor who helps people understand their emotions and work through mental health challenges. She trained in person-centred therapy and combines that approach with years of experience to offer calm, attentive support. Becky works in English and sees clients from the United Kingdom and internationally. She holds BACP membership and has practised in therapeutic settings since 2018.

Becky aims to create a non-judgemental space where clients decide the pace and topics. Sessions focus on listening, reflection, and helping people identify their own strengths. She encourages self-compassion and practical ways to manage stress, anxiety, low mood and sleep problems.

Her background includes placements in an NHS GP practice, work with women in a closed-category prison, and a mental health charity in an area of high socioeconomic need. Becky also completed a BSc (Hons) in Psychology in 2015, with research into fear and phobia, and holds Graduate Membership of the British Psychological Society and Individual Membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP).

In therapy she supports people dealing with trauma, addiction, grief, relationship and intimacy issues, ADHD, bipolar and a wide range of other concerns. She works with matters such as caregiver stress, chronic illness and body-image difficulties, and can help with career strain and compassion fatigue.

Becky currently offers live chat and text sessions in afternoons and evenings UK time. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions according to the therapist's availability. The service uses a cancellable subscription payment model.

How client-centred work adapts to online therapy

Client-centred therapy places emphasis on being listened to and understood. In practice that means the counsellor offers empathic reflection and lets the client lead the conversation. This approach helps with issues like anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship and identity concerns by building trust and self-awareness.

Person-centred work is gentle and paced by the client. Sessions often focus on exploring feelings, recognising strengths and developing self-compassion. For people coping with grief, chronic illness, caregiving stress or neurodivergent issues such as autism and ADHD, this open style can help them name what matters and work out next steps together.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Becky will discuss your needs and preferences and adjust how she works so it fits your goals. She aims to agree on what will be most helpful and to review this as therapy progresses.

Practical benefits of online therapy include easier fitting of sessions into daily life and reduced travel time. Because Becky offers live chat and text sessions in afternoons and evenings UK time, these can suit people who prefer typing to speaking, need shorter check-ins, or want appointments that fit around work or caregiving. If you prefer other formats, confirm available options before booking.
