Rebecca Slaymaker offers a warm, client-centred way of working that puts the person first. She uses practical tools and conversational therapy to help people feel steadier and more capable. Rebecca is identified as NCPS, which indicates her credential in the UK, and she has five years of professional experience.

Rebecca focuses on reducing stress and anxiety and on improving mood and self-esteem. She also helps with relationship strain, grief and loss, and coping with life changes.

Background and approach

Addictions, trauma and abuse, and career concerns are within her remit, as are a range of related issues such as attachment, body image and feelings of emptiness. Sessions are shaped around each person’s needs. Rebecca blends client-centred work with practical strategies from cognitive behavioural therapy and mindfulness.

She also offers hypnotherapy and psychodynamic perspectives when they suit the client’s goals. In a typical meeting she listens first, then helps people set small, achievable steps. Conversations are straightforward and paced to what the client can manage.

Rebecca aims to build a sense of safety and steady progress over time. People come for short-term support and for longer exploration of recurring patterns. Rebecca can help with practical coping skills, reframing negative thoughts, and working through difficult feelings linked to loss, identity or life transitions.

She encourages realistic goals and gentle persistence.

How Rebecca’s approaches work online

Rebecca often combines client‑centred work with cognitive behavioural strategies to address practical problems. Client‑centred therapy focuses on listening and building trust so people feel understood; it helps when someone needs support to clarify values, set goals and move forward. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thinking and behaviour and teaches concrete tools to reduce anxiety, lift mood and change unhelpful habits.

Rebecca may also use mindfulness techniques to help people manage stress in the moment and to notice thought patterns without judgement. These approaches can be used together, and Rebecca will discuss which methods suit a person's goals and preferences. Finding the right mix is collaborative - she works with each person to try approaches, review what helps, and adjust the plan over time.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text‑based messaging. Video is useful for deeper conversational work and guided exercises, while phone calls can be simpler when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and messaging suit quick check‑ins, short reflections or when someone prefers typed communication. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving or mobility needs, and to continue progress even when schedules change.
