About Rebecca

Rebecca "Becca" Mather helps people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, parenting pressures and major life changes. She offers calm listening and practical support for everyday struggles like sleep problems, anger and feeling overwhelmed. Becca aims to create a gentle space where someone feeling burnt out can begin to make themselves a priority again.

Becca works in a warm, non-judgemental manner and keeps sessions focused on what matters to the person in front of her.

Background and approach

She uses mindfulness and acceptance-based ideas alongside solution-focused conversations to help people manage difficult thoughts and feelings. This includes simple exercises and small, practical steps to try between sessions. She also draws on client-centred ways of working, which means the person sets the pace and the topics for therapy.

Becca describes herself as supportive and validating, and she invites people to notice what helps them feel steadier and more able to cope. Becca has four years of experience and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She is based in the United Kingdom and offers sessions in English.

Sessions may take the form of video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. People often begin by setting clear, achievable goals and using short, practical strategies. Over time the aims usually shift toward building confidence, reducing daily distress, and helping someone feel more able to manage parenting pressures and other life demands.

Online support

How Becca uses acceptance, mindfulness and solution-focused work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice unhelpful thoughts without getting stuck in them and then commit to actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, low mood and the push-pull of parenting responsibilities. Client-centred work focuses on listening, empathy and following the person's lead so they feel heard and can decide what to tackle next. That approach suits people who want a steady, supportive space to make sense of things.

Mindfulness approaches teach simple attention and grounding exercises that can reduce stress in the moment and make day-to-day life feel more manageable. Solution-focused techniques concentrate on small, achievable steps and on recognising what already works, which can be helpful when someone wants quick practical tools to try between sessions. Becca will work collaboratively to choose which methods suit a person's goals and preferences rather than assuming a single route is best.

Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into short breaks, while live chat or text-based messaging can be used for brief check-ins or when typing feels easier. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around busy days and parenting demands, and to keep momentum between appointments.
