About Rebecca
Rebecca "Becki" Watkins is a BACP psychotherapist with 13 years of clinical experience. She offers a calm, welcoming space for people who feel overwhelmed, low in confidence, or not quite themselves. Becki aims to make talking about hard things straightforward and unhurried.
Sessions are practical and down-to-earth, tailored to each person's needs. Becki supports people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and abuse, and relationship difficulties. She also helps with issues around self-esteem, identity, ADHD, addiction, and intimacy.
Background and approach
Her practice is neurodiversity-affirming and she welcomes autistic and other neurodivergent people whether they have a formal diagnosis or are simply exploring their experience. Her approach is collaborative. Becki listens first and then suggests tools and ideas that fit the person in front of her.
That might include thinking or behaviour strategies to manage anxiety, or emotion-focused work to understand painful feelings. She avoids jargon and keeps the focus on what is useful in daily life. Sessions are shaped around what each person needs.
This can mean short practical techniques for coping, deeper conversations about past events, or support through life transitions and loss. Becki works with people on topics such as parenting strain, career change, sexual expression and kink, body image, chronic illness, and addiction recovery. Her practice is respectful of difference and aims to be inclusive.
She encourages a steady pace, so people can open up when they are ready. To start, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to Becki's availability.

How Becki brings therapy online with practical approaches
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person without judgement. It helps people feel heard and supported while they work out what matters to them. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and gives clear strategies to reduce anxiety, low mood and unhelpful patterns. Dialectical Behaviour Therapy, DBT, emphasises skills for managing intense emotions and improving relationships, with practical techniques for coping and distress tolerance.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals and try different ways of working. Together they decide which methods feel most helpful and adjust the plan as progress is made or circumstances change.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when a fuller interaction is helpful, while phone sessions can suit shorter check-ins or times with limited bandwidth. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for brief support, real-time check-ins, or when writing feels easier than speaking. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, family or mobility needs and let people choose the format that best fits their day.
