Rebecca Anderson Counselling
Hello! It's so nice to meet you. My name is Rebecca and I'm a fully qualified and registered therapist based in St Albans and Hemel Hempstead.
I'm here to support you through any challenges you might be facing, and to help you discover new ways of being that align with your values and goals.
Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, low mood or anything else, know that I'm here to help guide you through it all.
I look forward to getting started on this journey together!
My approach
I draw from both person-centered and gestalt theories, using a range of techniques and interventions that are tailored to your unique needs and preferences.
Through our collaborative work together, we'll raise awareness of any beliefs or patterns that may be impacting your life, gain a deeper understanding of the experiences that have shaped you in your past, and connect with who you are now.
Together, we'll develop new ways of thinking and being that align with your values and goals, and we'll build your own emotional resources to support you beyond the therapy.
Our relationship
I believe that the therapeutic relationship should be a space where clients can be themselves without fear of judgment, and it’s important for me to do all I can to make you feel comfortable. Nothing is off limits in our chats, and I'm an open person who’s happy to talk in-depth about anything you wish.
Silence plays a crucial role in our therapy sessions as it allows you time to process your thoughts and for me to listen. However, I understand that for many people, prolonged periods of silence can cause anxiety. That's why I won't rely on extended silences as some Freudian approaches do, and I'll talk, engage and offer questions when appropriate. I'll be an active presence in the room, walking alongside you and providing support as a fellow human being.
Fees & accessibility
I see clients face-to-face in both Hemel Hempstead and St Albans, Hertfordshire.
I'm also committed to making counselling accessible to all and currently offer online counselling over Zoom. I welcome clients from all backgrounds, and by working online, I'm able to see clients from all over the UK.
My fees for a 50 minute session are £45.
