Rebecca Riley

Rebecca Riley is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom with three years' experience supporting people through emotional challenges. She helps with stress, anxiety, grief, depression and low self-esteem, and listens without judgement. Her work focuses on making space for each person to tell their story at their own pace.

Rebecca believes the client is the expert in their life. She aims to offer a calm, respectful setting where people can talk through difficult feelings and make sense of what they are facing. Sessions are shaped around each person’s needs rather than a fixed agenda.

Her practice often helps people coping with big life changes, relationship strain, family problems and the effects of trauma and abuse. She also supports people dealing with issues such as addiction, infertility of identity through adoption and foster care concerns, midlife questions, money worries and seasonal affective disorder.

Rebecca works from a client-centred approach, which means she pays close attention to what matters most to each person and follows their lead in sessions. Conversations tend to focus on understanding feelings, building self-worth and finding practical ways to manage everyday difficulties.

She acknowledges how hard it can be to start therapy and aims to make the first steps straightforward. People who choose to work with her can expect a patient, non-judgemental listener who helps them find their own solutions and next steps.
