About Rebecca
Rebecca Sanderson uses a client-centred approach to help people talk through difficult feelings. She draws on cognitive behavioural ideas and trauma-focused work when needed. Rebecca aims to make sessions simple and direct so people can feel heard and take practical steps forward.
Rebecca has NCPS listed after her name and brings ten years of experience in the United Kingdom. She has worked with people dealing with stress, anxiety and depression.
How Rebecca works
She also has experience supporting those affected by trauma and abuse and those coping with grief or anger. Her practice pays attention to everyday problems that make life harder. This includes sleep and eating concerns, body image, addictions and panic attacks.
She also helps people manage relationship strain, family problems, and the stresses of parenting and caregiving. Rebecca uses short-term methods alongside deeper exploration when that suits the person. That can mean setting clear goals and practical strategies, or talking through past experiences to understand patterns.
Sessions are aimed at creating achievable change while still recognising how painful past events can be. People can expect a calm, non-judgemental tone and straightforward language. Rebecca encourages small steps and regular check-ins so progress is clear.
Taking the first step can feel hard, and she aims to make the process as approachable as possible.

How Rebecca blends talking therapies with online access
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person as they describe their situation. The aim is to create a warm, non-judgemental space where people can clarify feelings and decide what matters most to them.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours interact. It helps with anxiety, depression, panic attacks and unhelpful routine patterns by teaching simple strategies and practical exercises.
Trauma-Focused Therapy concentrates on the effects of past traumatic events and on ways to reprocess painful memories and reduce their hold. It is used when trauma or abuse is a key concern and is combined with stabilising tools when needed.
Finding the most helpful approach is a joint process. Rebecca will work with each person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences. She explains options, checks how approaches feel in practice and adjusts the plan as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video works well for in-depth conversations, phone can be easier with limited bandwidth, live chat suits quick check-ins and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and daily life.
