Her previous experience has included working with individuals, groups and organisations in community, inpatient and prison services. She has trained in a number of different evidence based therapies including Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR) and Cognitive Analytic Therapy. Rebecca is highly skilled in helping people to better understand and heal longstanding difficulties with their mental health and wellbeing.

In both NHS and independent practice Rebecca has significant experience of working with individuals from diverse backgrounds with multiple unmet needs and experiences of trauma.  Most recently she has become interested in working at an organisational level; helping systems think about their services users and mental wellbeing of staff members through reflective practice.

Alongside her work at Talking Heads, Rebecca is also a psychologist within a Crisis Resolution and Home Treatment team in the NHS

“I have both a professional and personal understanding of the decision to embark on therapy and how overwhelming yet empowering it can be. I aim to create a compassionate and containing space for people to achieve their goals at a pace that suits them. I use an integrative approach, drawing on third-wave Cognitive Therapies, attachment-based models and EMDR trauma therapy , in order to best meet the needs of those I work with. Working with Talking Heads really appealed to me as they aim to not only deliver quality psychological services but also offer community projects to groups that statutory services may fail to reach.”
