About Rebecca
Counsellor Rebecca Pook is a BACP member with five years' experience working in the United Kingdom. She helps people who are coping with stress, anxiety, addiction, trauma, grief and major life changes. Rebecca also works with issues linked to relationships, parenting, self-esteem, career strain, bipolar, depression and ADHD.
Rebecca uses a straightforward, person-focused style in sessions. She listens and reflects what comes up, then invites clients to notice patterns in thoughts and behaviour. She will offer challenge where it seems helpful and support people to try different ways of responding to difficult situations.
Her work draws on client-centred principles and emotionally-focused techniques to track feelings and interaction patterns. She also uses narrative and solution-focused ideas to help people reframe difficult experiences and set small, practical steps forward.
Rebecca often helps people struggling with attachment and abandonment concerns, or with the effects of domestic violence, substance use and chronic health problems. She will also address caregiver stress, body image and communication problems as concrete topics in the room.
Sessions are conversational and grounded. Rebecca encourages clear aims and practical next steps alongside emotional work. People who want to think through options, make small changes or process painful experiences may find this approach useful.
To begin, users are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and book a first session. Costs vary with location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.
How her therapeutic approaches work online
Rebecca draws on client-centred work that focuses on the person's own experience and what matters to them. This approach means the counsellor listens closely, reflects what is said and helps people notice their own thoughts and feelings to decide the next steps. It suits a wide range of concerns including stress, grief and relationship issues.She also uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to look at how emotions shape relationships and interactions. EFT helps people name patterns in feeling and responding, and is useful for working through attachment and communication problems. Narrative ideas are used to help people tell the story of their life differently, separating the person from the problems they face and finding small changes to try.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Rebecca will discuss options with each person and agree what fits best with their goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process that can change as work progresses.
The exact session formats are not specified here, so please confirm the current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins if needed and remove travel time from the commitment. Registered or accredited professionals can offer a mix of conversational, emotion-focused and practical sessions that adapt to everyday life.
