Rebecca Hepson, BACP
Relationship-focused counsellor using body-informed methods
About Rebecca
Rebecca Hepson is a counsellor who focuses on relationships and personal growth. She holds a BACP accreditation and brings three years of practice to conversations about stress, anxiety, trauma and intimacy. Rebecca aims to create a calm, steady space where people can work out what is holding them back and what they want next.
She uses a client-centred way of working, which means conversations follow the client’s pace and priorities.
Background and approach
Somatic ideas are woven into sessions too, helping people notice how emotions show up in the body. Trauma-focused techniques are used when past experiences are influencing present choices. Rebecca helps people untangle low self-esteem, relationship problems and the fallout from abuse or assault.
She also supports those facing career crossroads, questions about sexuality and struggles with social anxiety. Practical conversation and reflective exercises are common in sessions. Her approach is straightforward.
Sessions include talking, noticing bodily signals, and small steps to try between meetings. Rebecca aims to help people feel clearer about who they are and what they want in relationships and life. She works with adults and accepts international clients through online formats.
Sessions are offered in English and arranged by booking through the service’s matching and scheduling system.
How somatic and trauma-aware approaches work online
Rebecca uses client-centred work to keep sessions focused on what matters to the person. This approach means conversations move at the client’s pace and priorities, with the therapist reflecting and clarifying to help people notice patterns.Somatic Therapy is used to help people notice how emotions appear in the body, such as tension, breath changes or restlessness. These observations are linked back to feelings and choices, which can help when dealing with anxiety, relationship stress or somatic symptoms. Trauma-Focused Therapy helps address the impact of past events on current life, using careful, paced methods to work through difficult memories and reactions.
Choosing the right approach is part of the process. Rebecca works collaboratively to find which methods fit a person’s needs, goals and preferences, and she adjusts the approach as work progresses.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to provide flexibility. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, family or travel, and they allow people to continue work when in different locations.
