About Rebecca

Rebecca Gilmour is a pluralistic counsellor who helps people navigate stress, anxiety, low mood and life changes. She offers a calm, non-judgemental space where someone can talk things through at their own pace. Her approach is practical and steady, aimed at helping people feel more like themselves again.

Rebecca works collaboratively, choosing ways of working that suit each person. As a pluralistic counsellor she draws on a range of evidence-based therapeutic techniques and adapts them to the situation in front of her.

Background and approach

Sessions focus on what feels most useful, and she checks in regularly to make sure the work stays on track. People come for many reasons, including relationship difficulties, work stress, grief, compassion fatigue, problems with self-esteem, or struggles with addiction and eating concerns.

She also supports those dealing with trauma or identity-related issues such as LGBT matters, and helps people facing parenting challenges and ADHD-related concerns. Rebecca has three years of counselling experience and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She works with adults in the United Kingdom and runs sessions in English.

Her sessions are offered online using video calls, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Rebecca aims to build clarity, self-acceptance and practical coping strategies so people can manage day-to-day life with more ease.

Online support

Approaches that guide online counselling and support

Rebecca works as a pluralistic counsellor and uses evidence-based techniques tailored to each person. She commonly draws on approaches that focus on understanding thoughts and feelings to reduce anxiety and low mood, and on methods that help build practical coping skills for stress, parenting challenges and day-to-day pressures. Each approach is used as a tool to help with clarity, emotional regulation and behaviour change.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they choose and adapt methods so sessions feel relevant and useful rather than formulaic, and they review progress regularly to stay aligned with the client’s needs.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, while phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging suit people who prefer typing or want flexible, ongoing contact between scheduled conversations. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family life and other commitments with registered or accredited professionals.
