About Rebecca

Rebecca Slaymaker is an NCPS-credentialed counsellor in the United Kingdom with five years of professional experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strains, grief and loss, low self-esteem, depression, addictions and life changes. Rebecca also lists life purpose among her areas of focus and helps people who feel stuck or unsure what comes next.

Her sessions aim to be straightforward and practical. She uses Client-Centred Therapy to listen and reflect what matters to the client. She also draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and try new ways of responding. Hypnotherapy and Mindfulness Therapy are offered as additional tools for anxiety, motivation and confidence.

Rebecca describes her style as responsive to the person in front of her. She works with an individual’s goals and adjusts the approach as needed. Conversations can include examining patterns from early relationships when that is relevant, using psychodynamic ideas to understand recurring difficulties.

Practical steps are a common focus in sessions. That might mean testing small behavioural changes, practising grounding or breathing techniques, or working through decisions about work and life direction. Rebecca supports people thinking about career shifts, parenting strains, blended family issues and concerns linked to autism or attachment.

Sessions are conducted in English and her practice serves clients in the United Kingdom. She asks prospective clients to use the site matching system to book an initial appointment and to confirm the current session options before scheduling.

How Rebecca blends therapeutic approaches online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the client, helping people clarify their aims and feel heard. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions, and uses practical exercises to test new ways of responding to stress, anxiety and low mood. Hypnotherapy is used as an adjunct to support motivation, confidence and managing anxious responses through guided relaxation and focused attention.

Finding the right combination of approaches is part of the work. Rebecca collaborates with each person to decide which methods suit their goals and preferences. She will review progress and adapt the mix of talking, practical exercises and any hypnotherapy components as needed.

The site biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm current online session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy routines, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when that helps. Talk-based methods and CBT exercises transfer well to remote meetings, and hypnotherapy can be conducted remotely when agreed between therapist and client.
