About Rebecca
Rebecca Mcintosh is a BACP-registered counsellor in the United Kingdom with 12 years of clinical experience. She works with adults who feel stuck after changes in work, relationships or health. Common concerns she helps with include stress, anxiety, grief, relationship and intimacy issues, depression, bipolar and adjustment to life changes.
She uses a person-centred way of working that focuses on listening and following the client’s priorities. Sessions are shaped around what is most pressing for the person in front of her. Rebecca also draws on mindfulness and solution-focused techniques to support practical steps and clearer thinking.
Her background includes several years working at Cancer Support, where she gained experience helping people living with cancer to manage strong emotions and practical strain. She has also worked with neurodivergent and disabled clients and brings that experience into how she plans sessions and supports communication needs.
Rebecca works with individuals and couples and can help people dealing with trauma and abuse, ADHD, attachment and abandonment issues, chronic illness, codependency and substance-related problems. She aims to help people unpack overwhelming thoughts and feelings so they can think more clearly about next steps.
Sessions are guided by the client’s priorities, with practical tools when useful and space to reflect when conversation alone is what is needed. Prospective clients in the UK should confirm current session formats before booking, and follow the service steps to complete a short questionnaire and schedule a first appointment.
How her approaches are used in online sessions
Rebecca uses a person-centred way of working online that focuses on listening and following what the client says is most important. This approach helps when someone feels overwhelmed and needs time to bring order to their thoughts and feelings.She also uses mindfulness techniques to help people notice physical and mental patterns that keep stress and anxiety high. Mindfulness work is short and practical, and can help with emotional regulation and clearer thinking. Solution-focused work is goal-orientated and looks for small, achievable steps to move forward; it suits people wanting practical strategies after a life change.
Choosing the best approach is part of the work. Rebecca will talk with each person about needs, preferences and goals, and will try different methods to see what fits. This collaborative discussion helps clarify whether slower reflective work or direct practical steps are more helpful.
Confirm the available session formats before booking, as current options are listed when you start the process. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy around work or appointments, reduce travel time and allow short check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals generally adapt sessions to a client’s daily routine so therapy can be easier to keep up with.
