About Rebecca
Rebecca Henderson is a PACFA counsellor in Australia with seven years' experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, parenting pressures, low self-esteem and compassion fatigue. She also supports those facing issues around body image, caregiver stress, codependency and a search for life purpose.
She has worked in family services, schools, government support programs and private practice. That variety means she has helped people from many backgrounds and life stages. Rebecca listens, reflects back what she hears and offers gentle challenge when someone feels stuck.
Sessions focus on identifying what the person wants to change. Rebecca helps set practical steps and checks in on progress. She uses everyday language and a straightforward approach rather than jargon or long theoretical explanations.
She also brings a sense of humour into sessions where appropriate. When people say they cannot talk to anyone they know, she offers an alternative perspective and a plan to move forward. Rebecca will work with each person to clarify goals and decide which approaches might suit their situation.
Her practice aims to help people manage immediate stress and build clearer direction after life changes. People often come for help with communication problems, family of origin issues, grief and end-of-life concerns, guilt or shame, and feelings of emptiness or isolation. Rebecca supports practical steps to regain momentum and clarify next actions.
Therapeutic approaches and online sessions
Rebecca uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change. One common strand is problem-focused work that identifies clear goals, breaks them into small steps and tracks progress; this helps with immediate stress, burnout and low motivation. Another approach emphasises exploring relationship patterns and communication habits to improve connection and reduce recurring conflict; this is useful for jealousy, commitment issues and family problems.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Rebecca will discuss options with the person and choose methods that match their needs and preferences. That collaboration means plans are adjusted as progress is made and goals change.
The practical benefits of working online include easier fitting of sessions into a busy week and reducing travel time, which can make regular check-ins more achievable. The original biography does not specify session formats here, so confirm current session options before booking. Rebecca aims to make sessions workable around everyday life and to help clients apply what they discuss between meetings.
