About Rebecca
Rebecca (Becky) Holmes is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who supports people facing parenting stress and other everyday challenges. She holds BACP registration and brings three years of clinical work to conversations about feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or low. Becky writes plainly and aims to make each session feel practical and down to earth for busy parents.
Becky helps people untangle what is making daily life harder. She offers support for stress, anxiety, low mood and depressive feelings, grief, trauma and abuse, and issues around self-esteem and body image.
Background and approach
She also works with concerns linked to eating, sleeping and addictions, and with intimacy-related and relationship worries. Her approach blends attachment-based ideas with client-centred listening and practical cognitive behavioural techniques. In sessions she will listen closely, reflect what she hears, and work with each person to test simple changes that might improve how they feel day to day.
Mindfulness and psychodynamic perspectives are also part of her toolkit when exploring patterns from the past. Rebecca accepts people living outside the UK and conducts sessions in English. Appointments can take place by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging to fit different schedules.
Fees vary by location and use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, a person selects the Start Therapy button, completes a short matching questionnaire, and books a slot that suits them. Becky aims to keep the process straightforward so parents can get practical help quickly.

Approach and online support that fits your life
Rebecca commonly draws on attachment-based thinking to look at how early relationship patterns affect present-day reactions. This helps when worries link back to feelings of abandonment, attachment issues or recurring relationship patterns. She also uses cognitive behavioural techniques to help identify unhelpful thoughts and test simple behaviour changes that can ease anxiety, low mood or sleep problems.Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to agree what feels most useful based on their goals and preferences. That might mean starting with short practical CBT tools, then using attachment-focused conversations to understand longer standing patterns, or mixing in mindfulness exercises to manage stress in the moment.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is low or for shorter check-ins, and live chat or text messaging suit people who prefer writing or need quick, regular contact. These formats help make therapy fit around parenting, work and other commitments, while keeping the focus on making steady, practical progress.
