Rebecca Bayliss , BACP

Rebecca Bayliss is a qualified psychotherapist who holds a master's degree in Counselling and Psychotherapy and is recognised with the BACP credential, indicating membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. With four years of clinical experience, she works compassionately with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family difficulties, trauma and abuse, grief, and a range of other life challenges.

Rebecca specialises in a person-centred approach, offering a non-judgemental space where clients can explore thoughts and feelings openly. She emphasises the therapeutic relationship as the foundation for change, supporting clients to feel accepted and understood as they address issues such as self-esteem, parenting concerns, anger, coping with life changes, and identity questions including LGBT matters.

Her practice also attends to attachment-related difficulties, communication and commitment issues, codependency, and the emotional impact of separation or caregiver stress. Rebecca takes a holistic view, helping clients reconnect sensations in the body with emotional experience so that trapped or unresolved feelings can be noticed and worked through rather than simply managed by medication.

In sessions she aims to help people rediscover meaningful activities and build a more satisfying life. Rebecca offers a steady, empathetic presence, guiding clients toward clearer self-understanding, practical coping strategies, and deeper emotional integration.

Therapeutic approaches and online support

Rebecca draws on attachment-based and client-centred approaches alongside trauma-focused work to guide online therapy. Attachment-based therapy explores how early relationships shape current patterns of connection and can help with difficulties in trust, intimacy, and relationship cycles by identifying and shifting unhelpful relational habits.

Client-centred therapy focuses on providing an accepting, empathetic environment where clients are encouraged to lead the conversation and make sense of their own experiences. This approach supports issues such as low self-esteem, life transitions, and emotional overwhelm by prioritising the client's perspective and pace.

Trauma-focused methods are used when past traumatic experiences continue to affect daily life, offering ways to process and reduce the emotional hold of those memories while building coping resources.

Finding the right combination of methods is a collaborative process. Rebecca will work with each person to identify goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, adapting the approach over time in partnership with the client.

Online therapy with Rebecca is available by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility to fit sessions into busy lives and to access support from home. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care, attend sessions despite geographical or scheduling constraints, and choose the format that best supports engagement and progress with a licensed professional.
