Rebecca (Becky) HolmesBACP

Rebecca (Becky) Holmes is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom. She holds BACP registration and has three years of professional experience. Becky aims to help people who are finding day-to-day life hard to manage, especially around stress, low mood and anxiety.

Becky approaches sessions in a straightforward way. She listens first to understand what feels most difficult, then works with each person to identify small, practical steps forward. She uses a mix of talking therapies to help people make sense of patterns that keep causing pain, including issues around sleep, eating and self-esteem.

Her work covers a wide range of concerns such as trauma and abuse, grief, addictions, relationship and intimacy-related difficulties, and parenting strain. She also addresses attachment challenges, body image, chronic illness and caregiving stress. Becky helps people consider how past experiences affect current feelings and behaviours.

In sessions she draws on approaches like attachment-based methods, client-centred work and cognitive behavioural techniques to offer both reflection and practical change. Mindfulness and psychodynamic ideas may also inform the work when useful. The aim is to tailor the approach to what each person needs and prefers.

If someone chooses to start, they complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule appointments. Becky works with people who want to talk through worries and learn ways to cope better with everyday life.

How Becky uses therapy approaches online

Attachment-based work focuses on relationships and how early bonds shape feelings and trust. It can help people who notice patterns of disconnection or fear of abandonment in adult relationships.

Client-centred therapy puts the person’s experience at the heart of the session. The counsellor reflects what is said and helps people find their own solutions, which suits those who need time to make sense of feelings without pressure.

Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts, feelings and actions and teaches practical steps to change unhelpful patterns. It is often useful for anxiety, low mood, panic and sleep or eating difficulties.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Becky will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful, then try methods that fit the person’s needs. The process is collaborative and can change over time as progress is made.

The therapist's original profile does not list specific session formats, so please confirm the available online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people continue therapy while travelling or when juggling parenting and work commitments.
