About Rebecca
Rebecca Pook is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with five years' experience. She works with people who are stressed, anxious, facing addiction, coping with grief, or dealing with relationship and family difficulties. She also supports those facing life changes, low self-esteem, mood conditions and codependency-related patterns.
Rebecca uses conversational, down-to-earth therapy rather than giving quick fixes. Sessions focus on noticing recurring patterns - for example people-pleasing or habitually putting others first - and testing small changes in how someone responds. She encourages honest reflection and practical steps for handling stressors outside a person's control.
Her approach draws on client-centred listening alongside emotionally focused and existential ideas. That means she attends to feelings in the moment, explores what matters personally, and helps people make meaning from difficult events. Motivational interviewing and narrative techniques are used to clarify values and reframe unhelpful stories about the self.
Rebecca aims to balance support with gentle challenge. Conversations can include experiments in setting boundaries, practising different communication, or naming attachment patterns such as abandonment or dependency. She also works with issues linked to trauma, addiction, ADHD and chronic illness where these affect daily coping.
Sessions are conducted in plain language and geared towards practical change. People are invited to reflect, try out alternatives between sessions, and bring whatever feels most urgent to the room. The first session is a chance to be clear about goals and decide how to work together.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on careful listening and helping someone feel heard. Online sessions let the counsellor follow a person's lead and emphasise what feels most pressing in the moment, which helps with exploring relationship and codependency patterns.Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps identify and name emotions that keep recurring in relationships. Through gentle attention to those feelings, clients can practise new ways of responding and test those responses between sessions.
Existential Therapy looks at personal meaning, choices and values when life feels confusing or stuck. It supports people to clarify what matters and to take small steps toward living in line with their priorities.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Rebecca will discuss these methods with clients and decide together which fit best for their goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process that can change as someone learns and experiments.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and support shorter check-ins when needed. It also allows work on emotions and communication from wherever a client is able to take part.
