I can be contacted by mobile between the hours of 07.30 and 21.30 Monday-Friday or by email 7 days a week, 24 hours p/day.

I am available for counselling most week days until early evening and some Saturday mornings.

Hello and welcome.

My name is Rebecca and I am a qualified person-centred counsellor. Seeking out a counsellor is an important first step and it would be my privilege to help you take the next steps. My approach is to put you at the centre and focus on the here and now, drawing on the past if relevant. My goal is to help you to access your own resources by listening attentively and without judgement so that you feel empowered to make the changes that are right for you. 

I have experience as a volunteer at Luton All Women’s Centre and at the Pegasus Men’s Wellbeing Centre. At both agencies I support clients with a range of challenges from trauma and domestic abuse to anxiety and depression, emotional abuse, family difficulties, lack of confidence and self-esteem, loneliness, and grief.

I have a wealth of lived experience which has helped me to gain a deep empathic understanding of a myriad of life’s challenges.

I offer counselling in a 1-2-1 setting in my private room at home in Harpenden or online if that suits you better.

Parking is available but I am not able to offer a waiting area.

At the onset of your counselling I will ask you to read and sign a contract which sets out, in detail, how we will work together. I will also ask you to consider what your goals for counselling are and based on these, we will conduct regular reviews to assess where we are in relation to those goals.

I offer an initial 20 minute telephone conversation, at no cost, to establish what you think you might need from counselling. This will give you the opportunity to ask me any questions about myself and the process.

I will ask you some questions to ensure that I am the right person to help you. If, at this stage, I believe you would be better supported elsewhere I will refer you to another counsellor or agency if I am able to.
