Rebecca Burchell

Rebecca Burchell is credentialed in the United Kingdom and has three years of professional experience supporting people through a range of personal and relational concerns. She works with individuals facing relationship and family conflicts, intimacy-related difficulties, career challenges, stress and anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, eating and sleeping problems, parenting and anger issues, low self-esteem, depression, ADHD, compassion fatigue, and LGBT-related matters.

Rebecca approaches each person with respect, sensitivity and compassion, recognising that life can present difficult moments which affect mental health. She understands how overwhelming anxiety or persistent numbness can feel, and how talking with friends or family may sometimes feel awkward or insufficient. In her sessions clients can expect to experience being truly heard.

In therapy she helps people explore their thoughts, feelings and the events that have led them to seek support, guiding the conversation from a sense of “what’s wrong with me?” to “what’s happened to me?” Sessions take place in a comfortable, warm counselling room in Lydd, Kent, where Rebecca aims to create a safe indoor space for reflection and change.

Rebecca adapts the pace of therapy to each person, centring the client in the work and discussing important relationships, key life events and responses to the surrounding environment. Alongside her private practice, she works as a school counsellor at a secondary school and has two years of experience from a counselling placement supporting survivors of domestic abuse.

People come to counselling with different aims and outcomes. Rebecca believes therapy can help process experiences, encourage a healthier mindset, foster greater self-acceptance, and support a more positive and fulfilling life over time.
