About

About Rebecca

Rebecca Fahey is a counsellor who uses a person-centred approach to help people manage stress, anxiety and parenting pressures. She brings warmth and clear listening to each session and aims to help clients feel understood and less alone. Rebecca is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and draws on five years of practice.

She works with people facing depression, trauma and addiction concerns, as well as relationship and grief issues.

Background and approach

Rebecca also helps with sleep and eating difficulties, anger, self-esteem and career worries. Parenting challenges and coping with life changes are part of her core focus. Her style adapts to each person.

Sessions combine client-centred listening with practical tools from cognitive behavioural and solution-focused work. When helpful, she draws on psychodynamic ideas or techniques from dialectical behaviour therapy to manage intense emotions. Rebecca has supported people in residential addiction services and in a supported psychiatric hospital.

That work included one-to-one and group therapy with people affected by substance misuse, trauma, bipolar disorder and long-term mental health conditions. These roles shaped her practical, steady approach to difficult problems. In sessions she aims to help people recognise patterns, try small changes and build coping skills.

She offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to suit different schedules. Sessions are delivered from the United Kingdom, in English, through a flexible subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

Online support

Therapeutic approaches and online support

Rebecca combines client-centred work with cognitive behavioural therapy to create sessions that are both listening-focused and action-oriented. Client-Centred Therapy centres on understanding each person's experience and building a trusting therapeutic relationship to help people feel heard and clearer about their choices. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) uses structured techniques to identify unhelpful thoughts and try small behaviour changes, which can help with anxiety, low mood and sleep problems.

Finding the right approach is part of the process and will be decided together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful, then adapt methods as work progresses. This collaborative planning helps keep sessions relevant and practical for parenting concerns or other life stresses.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different needs. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation when visual contact matters. Phone appointments suit people who prefer not to use video or have limited bandwidth. Live chat and text messaging are useful for shorter check-ins, journalling between sessions or fitting support around a busy day. These options make it easier to maintain regular contact and try new strategies without long travel.
