About Rebecca
Rebecca Lazaro is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, and LGBT-related concerns. She uses a person-centred approach and aims to create a calm, non-judgemental space where people can speak openly about what is troubling them.
Rebecca listens closely and follows each person’s pace. She encourages clients to make sense of their thoughts and feelings and to find their own ways forward. Sessions focus on noticing patterns, naming emotions and exploring beliefs that shape behaviour.
Her method is grounded in the person-centred model, which treats the therapeutic relationship as a partnership. Rebecca offers empathy, acceptance and genuine regard while people lead the content of sessions. She explains that lasting change often takes time and that a series of sessions usually works better than a single conversation.
Rebecca also draws on attachment-based ideas and emotionally-focused work when relevant. This can help people understand relationship patterns and respond differently to triggers. She may bring in psychodynamic perspectives to look at early experiences that affect present day reactions.
She trained in counselling and holds a Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling and a BA (Hons) in Psychology, and she is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). Her background includes many years supporting people with mental health and addiction issues in clinical and residential settings.
How core approaches guide online counselling
Rebecca uses person-centred counselling online to help people talk through anxiety, depression, stress and relationship concerns. In this approach the focus is on listening, acceptance and following the person’s pace so they can make sense of feelings and find their own solutions.She also draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationship patterns shape current reactions. This can help people understand triggers and change the way they relate to others. When helpful, emotionally-focused ideas are used to identify and work with strong emotions and the cycles they create in relationships.
Choosing the right approach is part of therapy. Rebecca works collaboratively to decide what feels most useful based on a person’s goals and preferences. She will check in and adjust methods over time so the work matches what a person needs.
Confirm current session options before booking so you know which online formats are available. Online counselling can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people join sessions from a comfortable, familiar setting while working on emotional and relational issues with a registered professional.
