About Rebecca

Rebecca Bayliss is a counsellor who uses person-centred and psychodynamic ideas to help people make meaningful changes. She holds a Masters in Counselling and Psychotherapy and works from a warm, accepting stance. Rebecca aims to create a space where people can speak openly about what matters to them.

Her approach focuses on the therapeutic relationship. She listens without judgement and helps people connect feelings, thoughts and bodily sensations. This can be useful for stress, anxiety, depression, grief and the effects of trauma and abuse.

Rebecca also supports people working through relationship and family problems, parenting strain, identity questions and issues related to LGBT experience. Other areas she helps with include low self-esteem, anger, guilt and shame, and coping with life changes such as separation or loss.

She draws on trauma-focused and attachment-based ideas when needed, helping clients track patterns from earlier relationships and how these show up now. Rebecca pays attention to how emotions can become stuck in the body and works with clients to notice and release those tensions.

With four years' experience and registration with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy - BACP - she blends listening, gentle challenge and practical exploration. People who come to her often work on clearer communication, healthier boundaries and ways to feel more settled in day-to-day life.

How Rebecca's approaches translate to online therapy

Rebecca often draws on person-centred and trauma-focused ways of working. Person-centred work focuses on being genuinely heard and accepted, which helps people feel safe enough to talk about difficult feelings and tough life decisions. Trauma-focused work looks at how past hurt affects present thoughts, feelings and bodily sensations, and supports gradual processing of those memories and reactions.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative step. The therapist will talk with the client about their needs, goals and what feels most helpful. Together they will try approaches that fit the person rather than applying a fixed method.

Please confirm the available session formats before booking, as the biography does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life by removing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins around work breaks, or offering options that suit quieter surroundings or lower bandwidth. These practical benefits can help people keep therapy consistent while managing everyday commitments.
