About Rebecca
Rebecca Mcintosh is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom with 12 years of practitioner experience. She works with adults who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or burdened by guilt and shame alongside issues like anxiety, depression, grief and relationship difficulties. Rebecca offers straightforward, person-centred support to help people sort through intense feelings and make clearer decisions about next steps.
Her approach grows from Person-Centred Therapy and draws on mindfulness, solution-focused ideas and trauma-informed work when helpful. Sessions are practical and conversational. She listens to what matters most, helps people notice patterns in their thinking and behaviour, and supports small, manageable changes.
Rebecca has worked with neurodivergent and disabled people and has experience supporting people affected by cancer through her time in Cancer Support. That background informs how she adjusts pace and approach to fit different needs and energy levels.
In sessions she works with individuals and couples to talk through emotional overwhelm, relationship concerns, anger, intimacy-related worries and self-esteem struggles. She also addresses areas such as attachment and abandonment, chronic illness and caregiving stress, addiction issues and dissociation.
Her practice uses a collaborative tone. People are invited to bring whatever they find difficult - current events, past hurts or ongoing struggles - and to work at a pace that feels manageable. To start, clients use the online matching process and then schedule a first session.
How her approaches translate to online work
Rebecca uses Client‑Centred Therapy to focus on what the client brings to each session, offering reflection and listening to help people clarify feelings and choices. This style suits issues like shame, relationship strain and low self‑esteem where talk and reflection help the most.She also draws on Mindfulness Therapy to teach simple attention practices that reduce reactivity and make intense emotions easier to notice. Mindfulness can help with anxiety, stress and anger by building short habits for calmer moments in daily life.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Rebecca treats that as a collaborative process and will help clients try different ways of working, discuss what helps, and adjust methods based on needs and preferences.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm the current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check‑in sessions when needed, or remove travel time so people can use a break from work for a session. Registered or accredited professionals often adapt pace and technique for remote sessions so the work matches everyday life.
