About Rebecca
Rebecca Fahey is a counsellor and psychotherapist who works in a warm, empathic way. She uses a person-focused approach that treats each life story as unique. Rebecca aims to help people feel heard and to reduce the loneliness that can come with emotional pain.

How Rebecca’s approaches translate to online therapy
Rebecca combines client-centred listening with cognitive behavioural therapy and dialectical behaviour therapy to help people make practical changes. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening without judgement and building understanding, which helps when someone needs space to be heard. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy looks at patterns of thought and behaviour and offers practical techniques for anxiety, low mood and stress. Dialectical Behaviour Therapy teaches skills for emotional regulation and coping when feelings are intense.Choosing the right approach is something Rebecca treats as a team effort. She discusses goals and preferences with each person and then suggests ways of working that suit their needs. Over the first few sessions she checks what is helping and adjusts the plan together so the work stays useful and relevant.
The original biography does not list which online or in-person formats are offered, so please confirm current session options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when that suits a schedule. It can also make it simpler to use skills between sessions, as people can try techniques in their everyday environment and then review them with the therapist.
