Rebecca Nia, BACP

Rebecca Nia is a UK-based counsellor who brings five years of practice to her work. She holds BACP registration, and she describes her style as open, warm and informal. Sessions are interactive, so Rebecca and the person she is working with decide together what to try next.

She began with humanistic training and now works in an integrative way. That means she draws on different tools and approaches to meet a person's needs. She often helps people who are feeling anxious, stressed, grieving, living with chronic pain, or coping after trauma.

In sessions Rebecca focuses on thoughts and everyday habits that get in the way of feeling better. She will help people notice unhelpful patterns and try practical alternatives. Conversations may include exploring feelings, adjusting thinking, learning calming practices, and paying attention to bodily cues.

Rebecca aims to create a warm, non-judgemental space where people can be heard and understood. She describes her manner as supportive and friendly, and she works collaboratively rather than directing from the front.

Her approach also covers issues such as self-esteem, relationship and intimacy concerns, addiction, parenting strain, career stress, body image, and compassion fatigue. She has additional experience with attachment and abandonment concerns, infertility and fertility-related stress, and communication problems.

Starting therapy with Rebecca is presented as a step-by-step process. She encourages people to take a cautious first step and offers guidance as they set and work toward practical goals.

How these approaches translate to online therapy

Rebecca uses an integrative mix that includes client-centred work and cognitive behavioural approaches. Client-centred therapy means the counsellor listens closely and follows what matters to the person, helping them feel heard and accepted. This approach suits people who need a supportive space to untangle feelings and priorities.

Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers practical techniques to change unhelpful habits. CBT can help with anxiety, low mood, sleep problems and everyday routines that get in the way of functioning.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The counsellor will discuss goals, preferences and what feels helpful, then try tools that fit those aims. Plans can change over time as needs evolve.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into everyday life, for example by reducing travel time or allowing appointments during a break from work. Since the biography does not list specific session formats, please confirm current options before booking. Many people find remote sessions helpful for keeping regular contact and practising skills between meetings.
