About Rebecca

Rebecca Nia is a UK-based counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has five years of practice. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem, addiction concerns, relationship and intimacy issues, codependency and related struggles. Sessions are offered in English and Rebecca accepts international clients.

Rebecca uses an integrative, client-centred style. She draws on attachment ideas to look at early relationship patterns. She also uses cognitive behavioural methods and narrative approaches to help people notice unhelpful thinking and rewrite the stories they tell about themselves.

In sessions she keeps things informal and interactive. People can expect to talk through feelings, try small experiments or practices, and reflect on how patterns show up in daily life. She also works with bodily awareness to help soothe intense reactions when that fits the client.

Rebecca often supports people coping with chronic pain, phobias, grief and the aftermath of trauma. She helps people who find it hard to say no, who keep putting others first, or who struggle with abandonment and attachment worries. Conversations include practical steps for setting boundaries and managing overwhelm.

Her approach mixes talking, practical tools and short exercises. Rebecca aims to help people notice patterns, build small changes and practise different responses. The focus is on steady, manageable progress rather than quick fixes.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online work

Rebecca commonly uses attachment-based ideas to map how early relationships shape current patterns. This approach looks at what keeps someone seeking approval or avoiding closeness and can help with codependency and relationship concerns. She also uses cognitive behavioural therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and try small behavioural experiments that change how people respond to stress.

She aims to work collaboratively to find what helps most. That means discussing options, trying an approach for a few sessions, and adjusting based on what feels useful. The therapist and client decide together whether to focus on practical skills, emotional processing, or body-based calming techniques.

Confirm the precise session formats before booking because the biography does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel, and keep check-ins shorter when needed. It can also let people use audio-only or lower-bandwidth options where that is preferable. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt exercises and short practices so therapy fits everyday life and responsibilities.
