Rebecca Bayliss , BACP

Rebecca Bayliss holds a Masters-level qualification in counselling and psychotherapy and holds the BACP credential (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy). She specialises in person-centred therapy and supports people working through a range of mental health difficulties, including stress, anxiety, relationship and family problems, trauma and abuse, depression, grief, parenting challenges, and issues connected to self-esteem and identity.

Her approach focuses on creating a warm, non-judgemental space where individuals can openly explore thoughts and emotions. Rebecca emphasises the therapeutic relationship as the foundation for change, offering acceptance and attentive listening to help people feel understood and able to speak freely. She aims to help clients make meaningful choices, reconnect with their own needs, and discover activities that bring greater satisfaction and purpose.

Rebecca also pays attention to how the body and mind interact, recognising that physical sensations can sometimes reflect unresolved emotions. While acknowledging that medication can be appropriate in some situations, she works with clients to explore emotional causes of physical symptoms and to reconnect bodily experience with inner life. Her practice is geared toward helping people integrate different parts of themselves and move toward a more fulfilling, balanced life.

Therapeutic approaches and online support

Rebecca draws on client-centred therapy, attachment-based work, and trauma-focused approaches to guide online sessions. Client-centred therapy emphasises empathy, acceptance, and the client’s own capacity for growth - it is helpful for issues like anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship difficulties, and coping with life changes. Attachment-based therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns in close relationships and can be useful for abandonment, attachment issues, and communication or commitment concerns. Trauma-focused therapy helps people process and make sense of past traumatic experiences, supporting recovery from trauma and abuse and related emotional or physical symptoms.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and Rebecca works collaboratively to determine what fits best. She discusses goals, preferences, and practical needs with each person to tailor the method and pace of work, adjusting as therapy progresses.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, manage ongoing responsibilities, or continue care during life transitions. These options allow licensed professionals and therapists to provide consistent support while accommodating each person’s location and routine.
