About Rebecca
Rebecca Truman helps people address stress, anxiety, relationships, grief and self‑esteem by working from the client’s own perspective and strengths. She describes clients as experts in their own stories and aims to support them as they make changes. Rebecca is registered with NCPS and has four years of professional experience.
She uses practical talking therapy to help people manage everyday problems. Sessions focus on identifying what matters to the person and on small, achievable steps. That can include learning ways to notice difficult thoughts, practising new ways of relating, and building routines that support sleep, eating and mood.
Rebecca draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to help with patterns of thinking and unhelpful behaviours. She also uses Attachment‑Based and Client‑Centred approaches to look at relationship patterns and how early experiences affect current feelings. Mindfulness skills are offered to reduce overwhelm and increase present‑moment awareness.
Common concerns she works with include coping with life changes, grief, addiction, intimacy issues, parenting stress, and mood difficulties such as depression and anger. Additional focus areas include attachment and abandonment issues, autism and Asperger syndrome related needs, body image and caregiver stress.
Sessions are aimed at practical change rather than labels. Rebecca will listen, reflect back what she hears, and suggest simple exercises to try between sessions. People who want clear, down‑to‑earth support for ongoing life challenges may find her approach helpful.
How her approaches translate to online counselling
Rebecca uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify their values and take small measured steps towards them, which can reduce avoidance and increase focus on what matters. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy is used to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and to practise alternative responses, a practical method often used for anxiety, low mood and sleep problems.
Attachment‑Based work looks at how early relationships shape current patterns with others, and client‑centred techniques make space for the person to lead the conversation while the counsellor reflects and summarises. These approaches can be combined with short mindfulness exercises to help reduce overwhelm and improve attention to the present moment.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Rebecca will discuss goals and preferences and agree on methods together, checking what helps as therapy progresses. That collaborative process guides which techniques are used and how sessions are paced.
The biography does not specify session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Many people find that remote sessions fit into work or family timetables more easily, allow quieter surroundings, and make it simpler to keep regular appointments. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt exercises and short between‑session tasks so they work within everyday life rather than taking up large amounts of time.
Sessions take place through BetterHelp by video, phone or messaging. We will earn a commission if you sign up.
