About Rebecca
Rebecca Gomperts is a BACP-registered counsellor in the United Kingdom with three years of professional experience. She works with people who are carrying guilt and shame alongside concerns such as addictions, relationship problems, trauma and low self-esteem. Rebecca describes helping with issues like abandonment, control struggles, forgiveness and isolation, and she also supports people exploring life purpose and self-love.
Rebecca graduated in 2024 with a first-class BA in Counselling from Sheffield Hallam University. She is currently studying for an MSc in The Psychology of Coercive Control at the University of Salford. Those academic steps inform how she frames conversations and plans practical next steps with clients.
In sessions she uses person-focused approaches that centre the client’s experience. She draws on Client-Centred Therapy to listen and reflect, and includes Existential ideas to look at meaning and choice when people feel stuck. Mindfulness techniques are used to help with grounding and noticing difficult thoughts without getting overwhelmed.
Rebecca also uses Motivational Interviewing when someone is working on change, for example around addictive behaviours or shifting patterns in relationships. Her style aims to be straightforward and collaborative, with an emphasis on small, manageable steps rather than quick fixes.
Practical matters such as session length or format are discussed directly with each person. To begin she asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and then book a first session to establish what feels most useful.
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the client, which helps people feel understood when they talk about guilt or shame. Existential Therapy looks at meaning, responsibility and choice, which can help when someone is deciding how they want to live after a painful event.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. She will discuss your goals and preferences and together you will decide whether to lean more on reflective listening, meaning-focused exploration, mindfulness practice or motivational techniques. That collaborative decision is checked in with as therapy progresses.
The original biography does not specify session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Many people find online sessions easier to fit into busy days, allow for shorter check-ins, or remove travel time. Online work can also let the therapist guide simple mindfulness exercises, support planning steps for change, and use conversation techniques that help people notice and shift guilt-related thoughts without needing an in-person visit.
