Rebecca SlaymakerNCPS

Rebecca Slaymaker works in a warm, person-centred way. She focuses on helping people manage stress and anxiety, rebuild confidence, and cope with grief and life changes. Rebecca uses straightforward talk, practical steps, and a calm presence so people can feel heard and begin to make changes.

Rebecca has five years of professional experience and holds NCPS as a credential. She draws on a mix of approaches to match each person’s needs, including cognitive work to change unhelpful thinking, mindfulness to steady attention, and psychodynamic ideas to look at repeating patterns.

Sessions are shaped around what matters most to the client. Rebecca listens first, then helps set clear, realistic goals. She offers tools you can try between sessions, such as breathing and grounding exercises, thought records, and short behavioural experiments.

Many people come with worries about relationships, low mood, or difficulty coping after loss. Rebecca also supports those facing career uncertainty, family tensions, fertility concerns, and questions about identity or purpose. She adapts the pace and focus so each conversation feels manageable.

Rebecca works from the United Kingdom and conducts therapy in English. She encourages a collaborative approach - clients and counsellor decide together what to try next. To start, a short matching questionnaire is used and appointments are arranged according to the therapist’s schedule.

How Rebecca's approaches translate to online therapy

Rebecca uses Client-Centred Therapy which focuses on listening, empathy and working at your pace; it helps people who need a supportive space to talk through worries. She also draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy or CBT, which looks at the link between thoughts, feelings and behaviour and offers practical exercises to reduce anxiety or low mood.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Rebecca will talk with each person about goals and preferences and then recommend what to try first. That decision is collaborative and may shift as progress is made.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around busy days, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also suit people who prefer not to meet face to face at first. The focus remains on clear goals, simple tools to practise between sessions, and regular review of what is helping.
