About Rebecca
Rebecca Garside is an NCPS counsellor in the United Kingdom with 13 years of experience. She works with people facing relationship and family concerns, parenting questions, LGBT issues and life transitions. Rebecca helps clients who are coping with loss, change, identity questions and the practical strains of everyday life.
She uses a person-centred approach that keeps conversations focused on the client's experience. Sessions are conversational and rooted in listening rather than instruction. Rebecca guides people to notice what matters to them and to try small, realistic changes between sessions.
Rebecca has worked with people from the care system and with adoptees and fostered children who later want to talk about identity and family of origin issues. She also supports parents dealing with children leaving home and the emotional shifts that follow, including later-life concerns.
She is an ally of the LGBTQA+ community and will discuss questions about coming out, sexual identity and gender identity. Rebecca also has experience with addiction, domestic violence, communication problems, blended family issues, and eating and body image concerns.
Her style is plain and steady. She focuses on practical conversation, listening for patterns, and helping people decide what to try next. To begin, a short matching questionnaire and an initial session are used to see if the working fit feels right.
Person-centred work and online counselling
Rebecca practises person-centred therapy, which focuses on listening and reflecting back what matters to the client. This approach helps people clarify values and make decisions about relationships, parenting and identity issues. It suits people who want a conversational space to sort things out rather than a series of instructions.The therapist will treat choice of approach as a collaborative matter. Together they will talk about goals, try an approach for a few sessions, and adjust what they do based on what helps. That means the method can shift as needs change, for example moving from exploring identity to practical communication skills for blended household life.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can help fit counselling into a busy week, cut travel time and allow shorter check-ins when that is useful. They also make it easier to work with a therapist from a different region. Registered or accredited professionals can offer a range of formats, so discuss with Rebecca which arrangement would best suit your schedule and the kind of work you want to do.
