About Rebecca

NCPS, 4 years' experience. Rebecca Truman works with people on stress, anxiety, relationships, grief and self-esteem using approaches she lists as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy.

Rebecca describes clients as the experts in their own stories and focuses on strengths people already have. She uses clear, practical talking and reflection to help people manage mood, motivation and confidence. She also supports discussions about intimacy, addiction, sleeping and eating concerns, and feelings tied to separation or loss.

In sessions she listens and helps people identify small, realistic steps to try between meetings. Techniques include exploring thoughts and behaviours, practising present-moment awareness, and working on patterns stemming from attachment or past relationships. Sessions aim to reduce unhelpful thinking and build day-to-day coping skills.

Her background is four years of professional work in the United Kingdom and registration with NCPS. Rebecca works with issues common to people dealing with life change, caregiver stress, loneliness, and mood difficulties such as depression and ADHD-related concerns.

People can expect short, plain explanations of what the therapeutic approaches involve and practical suggestions to try. The emphasis is on collaborative planning and regular review of progress rather than jargon or long theoretical explanations.

How her approaches translate to online counselling

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and focus on values-driven action; it can help with anxiety, low mood and difficulties in motivation. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in close relationships and can help when past relationship experiences affect current trust or intimacy. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy breaks problems into thoughts, feelings and behaviours and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns, which often suits stress, anxiety and mood problems.

Finding the right approach is part of the work and will be decided together. The counsellor will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful, and adapt methods over time as progress is reviewed. This keeps sessions collaborative and focused on practical changes.

Confirm the current session formats before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when appropriate, and remove travel time. It can also let people choose whether to use video or other options depending on what works best for them.
