About Rebecca

Psychotherapeutic counsellor, BACP, 5 years’ experience. Rebecca Armstrong helps with trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, depression, anxiety and stress. She also supports people facing addiction, grief, relationship and intimacy concerns, and those navigating ADHD or neurodiversity. Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients.

Rebecca keeps conversations direct and practical. She listens for patterns that get in the way, then works with the person to try different ways of responding. That can include looking at how past relationships affect current ones, or practising new approaches to manage intense feelings and stress. She aims to identify small, actionable steps between sessions.

Rebecca has particular experience supporting people who are neurodiverse or who live with chronic illness or disability. She helps people name barriers they meet in daily life and test strategies to reduce overwhelm and self-doubt. This includes work on attachment, abandonment concerns, and difficulties with commitment or control.

She also works on common relationship and family issues without running couple or family sessions unless that has been specifically arranged. Other focus areas include coping with divorce or separation, domestic violence, fertility issues, and recovery from infidelity. Rebecca uses coaching skills alongside counselling to help clients set and meet concrete goals.

Practical details are confirmed during the initial match questionnaire and first session. Fees vary by location and are delivered via a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

Therapeutic approaches and working online

Rebecca uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques in a practical way. One common element is examining how past relationships shape current responses; this helps with attachment problems, abandonment fears, and some relationship difficulties. Another focus is skills-based work to manage anxiety, stress and impulsivity by practising new ways to respond to difficult sensations or thoughts.

Deciding which approach to use is collaborative. The therapist will discuss options with the client, try methods that fit their goals, and adjust the approach as progress is reviewed. Clients and therapist work together to pick techniques that suit needs and preferences.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the currently supported options before booking. Online sessions can fit into everyday life by reducing travel, allowing shorter check-ins around work or family commitments, or removing the need to be on camera for some conversations. Registered or accredited professionals can offer flexibility in scheduling, which makes it easier to keep momentum between appointments.
