Rebecca Briggs

Rebecca Briggs is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief and loss. She supports clients dealing with low self-esteem, depression, trauma and anger. Rebecca also works with those coping with career change, compassion fatigue and difficult life transitions. She greets each person with a calm, non-judgemental manner to make starting therapy a little easier.

Rebecca trained to a BSc First Class (Honours) level in counselling and holds NCPS. She has six years of professional experience working with individual concerns. In sessions she aims to keep things straightforward and practical, helping people notice patterns and try small changes that can make daily life easier.

Her approach is person-centred and attachment-informed, so conversations focus on what matters most to the client. Cognitive tools are used when clients want strategies for anxious thoughts or mood shifts. Rebecca also draws on emotionally focused and existential ideas when people want to understand feelings or life meaning.

Therapy with Rebecca usually involves talking things through, reflecting on emotional reactions, and developing coping steps to manage stress. She attends to grief and end-of-life concerns with sensitivity and respect for each person’s pace. The aim is to help people regain some balance and move forward with clearer choices.

If you are considering support for obsessive or compulsive thoughts, phobias, post-traumatic stress, self-harm or attachment difficulties, Rebecca offers focused work on these issues. For practical next steps, please check the start process and session options before booking.

Approaches that shape online sessions

Rebecca commonly uses Attachment-Based and Client-Centred approaches in her work. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships influence current feelings and reactions, which can help when people struggle with trust, abandonment or relationship patterns. Client-Centred Therapy puts the person’s own goals at the centre, offering space to talk while the counsellor listens and reflects to help clarity emerge.

She also draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy when people want concrete steps for anxious thoughts or low mood. CBT helps identify unhelpful thinking patterns and test small changes that can reduce distress day to day.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Rebecca works collaboratively to decide what fits your needs and preferences. Together you will review what helps, try methods on a trial basis, and adjust the plan as goals or circumstances change.

Session format details were not specified in the biography, so please confirm the available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments around work or study, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when life is busy. It also lets people continue support when handling grief, end-of-life concerns or major life transitions without rearranging as much of their routine.
