About Rebecca

Rebecca Henderson is a PACFA counsellor in Australia with seven years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, parenting pressures, low self-esteem and compassion fatigue. Rebecca also helps with body image, caregiver stress, codependency and other family and identity questions.

She has worked across family services, schools, government-funded programs and private practice. That range means she has seen practical problems people bring when life becomes too busy or overwhelming. She listens, reflects what she hears, and offers different ways to look at a stuck problem.

In sessions she will help identify a clear focus and make a straightforward plan. Rebecca uses validation, gentle challenge and reframing to help people move from feeling stuck to taking small steps forward. She also uses humour when it fits the conversation.

Her approach suits people who want direct, down-to-earth support for everyday difficulties. Rebecca can help you name what matters, practise new ways of saying no, and rebuild a sense of yourself beyond other people’s demands.

Practical issues such as work burnout, grief around end-of-life care, communication problems and guilt or shame are part of her caseload. She helps people untangle family of origin patterns and commitment worries so they can make clearer choices about relationships and priorities.

How sessions work

Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions are used

Rebecca works with evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on how thoughts, feelings and behaviours link together. One common approach helps people spot unhelpful thinking patterns and try practical alternatives; it supports issues like anxiety, low self-esteem and feeling stuck. Another approach looks at relationship patterns and family of origin issues, helping people identify recurring dynamics and practise different ways of communicating.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Rebecca will talk with clients about their needs and goals, then choose methods that fit those aims. This is a collaborative process where plans get adjusted as progress and preferences become clearer.

The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Many people find online work useful because it can fit into a busy week, reduce travel time and make it easier to have a shorter check-in when needed. If you value fitting sessions around work, caregiving or other commitments, discuss timing and length when you schedule the first appointment so sessions match your everyday life.
