About Rebecca

Rebecca Pook is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with five years' experience. She supports people dealing with stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, life changes, LGBT issues, relationship concerns, parenting and family matters, low self-esteem, career issues, bipolar and depression, compassion fatigue and ADHD.

She works in a straightforward way that invites people to notice patterns in how they think and act. Sessions involve talking through feelings and behaviours, and trying out different ways of seeing situations. Rebecca encourages gentle challenge when it helps, and she works alongside people rather than telling them what to do.

Her background centres on client-focused practices that emphasise emotions and relationships. She uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy alongside client-centred and existential approaches, and draws on motivational interviewing and narrative ideas when useful. This mix aims to help people name difficult feelings and make sense of their relationships and choices.

Rebecca pays attention to practical coping where needed. She helps people find techniques for managing stress and for facing problems that they cannot control. She also supports work on communication, commitment questions and patterns linked to abandonment and attachment.

Sessions are offered in English and Rebecca accepts international clients. Costs vary with location and services use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. To start, a short matching questionnaire is completed and a first session is scheduled via the See online therapy options button.

How her approaches translate to online work

Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people name and work with strong feelings and attachment patterns. It is often used when relationships or repeating emotional patterns feel stuck. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the person's experience in the moment, emphasising listening and reflection to help clarify what matters. Existential Therapy looks at meaning, choice and responsibility and can help when someone faces big life questions or change.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful, and will adapt methods collaboratively rather than imposing a single model. This helps the person choose what to try first and what to change if something does not fit.

Practical benefits of online sessions include fitting therapy into a busy week and reducing travel time. Online work can make it easier to schedule shorter check-ins or longer sessions around other commitments. Confirm the current session options before booking, since formats are not detailed here, and use the initial matching steps to arrange the first appointment and confirm how sessions will be run.
