About Rebecca
Rebecca Fahey is a counsellor and psychotherapist in the United Kingdom with five years' experience and membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She works with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, depression, grief and life changes among other concerns. Rebecca also supports people with issues around self-esteem, intimacy, parenting, career questions and ADHD.
Her background includes one-to-one and group work in residential services for substance and alcohol misuse. She has worked in a secure psychiatric hospital supporting people with long-term mental health problems, including bipolar disorder, psychosis and personality disorder presentations.
In sessions she uses a range of approaches such as client-centred therapy, cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), dialectical behaviour therapy (DBT), psychodynamic therapy and solution-focused work. That means conversations can cover past experiences and patterns, practical coping skills, and short-term goal-focused strategies.
Rebecca describes therapy as collaborative. She helps people identify how they respond to problems and try different ways of coping. Practical tools and reflective conversation are both part of the process, depending on what someone needs.
Many people come to her feeling stuck after a change at work, in a relationship, or with their health.

How Rebecca applies therapeutic approaches online
Rebecca uses client-centred work and cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) as core tools. Client-centred work focuses on listening and responding to what matters most to the person, helping them name feelings and decide next steps. CBT looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours interact and teaches practical skills for anxiety, low mood and coping with change.She also draws on dialectical behaviour therapy (DBT) techniques when regulation and strong emotions are a focus. DBT offers clear skills for managing intense emotions, distress and interpersonal conflict, which can be useful after trauma or during periods of crisis. Deciding which approaches to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with the client to match methods to their needs, goals and how they prefer to work.
