About me and my therapy practice
About Me
I'm Rebecca Dalton, a psychotherapist, addiction advanced practitioner and ADHD coach with over 20 years' experience in the field, working with individuals from diverse backgrounds, including students, academics, senior professionals and high-profile individuals.
My specialist areas include ADHD, addiction and dependency, alongside extensive experience supporting people with anxiety, depression, self-esteem, emotional wellbeing and relationship difficulties.
I recognise that difficulties with alcohol, drugs or other potentially addictive behaviours do not represent a moral failing. Nor does seeking support necessarily mean committing to abstinence. You may simply be questioning your relationship with a particular behaviour, noticing its impact on your motivation, productivity, self-esteem or relationships, or wanting to regain a greater sense of control. I support people seeking to reduce or change their use, as well as those working towards abstinence and sustained recovery.
My approach is integrative, drawing on the biopsychosocial model to understand the relationship between our physical and psychological wellbeing, life experiences, environment and behaviour.
I combine psychological exploration with professional insight, constructive challenge and practical guidance, adapting my approach to the individual and their circumstances.
I also work with couples and families, where ADHD, addiction or associated difficulties affect relationships and family dynamics.
Discretion, honesty and mutual respect are fundamental to my practice.
Practice description
My practice combines psychotherapy, counselling and ADHD coaching, with specialist support for ADHD, neurodivergence, addiction and dependency. I hold an MSc in Addiction Psychology and Counselling, am a qualified coach and hold Advanced Practitioner status with Addiction Professionals (APAP).
My ADHD work draws on training with ADHD Works and its Executive Functioning Coaching Framework. Together we explore planning, task initiation, working memory, processing differences, motivation and emotional regulation, including procrastination, overwhelm, rejection sensitivity (RSD), demand avoidance (PDA) and low self-esteem. The emphasis is on understanding individual needs and finding strategies that work in everyday life.
In addiction work, I use motivational interviewing, the Cycle of Change, 12-Step facilitation and relapse prevention to explore ambivalence, patterns of behaviour and practical steps towards change.
I also work with couples and families, particularly where ADHD or addiction affects relationships. Depending on individual circumstances, this may involve joint sessions or separate work with family members. The focus is on listening to each person's experience and understanding how different needs interact, with clear agreements about confidentiality and boundaries.
My integrative approach draws on person-centred therapy, CBT, psychodynamic perspectives and psychoeducation. The biopsychosocial model informs my work, considering how physical health, psychological experiences and social circumstances influence wellbeing.
Sessions are thoughtful and active: alongside exploration, I offer observations, constructive challenge and practical guidance when useful. My work is trauma-informed, with an emphasis on safety, trust, collaboration and respect for individual choice and autonomy.
Online and telephone sessions are available.
My first session
I offer a complimentary 15-minute introductory consultation, providing an opportunity to discuss what brings you to therapy, ask questions and establish whether my approach is appropriate for your needs.
Our first appointment provides an opportunity to explore your personal history, current circumstances, psychological wellbeing, relationships and any relevant medical or neurodevelopmental factors.
This information helps inform an initial biopsychosocial assessment and collaborative case formulation, providing a foundation for identifying therapeutic priorities and agreeing how we might work together.
Where a more comprehensive assessment would be beneficial, an extended 75-minute appointment may be recommended.
Payment Arrangements
Fees are discussed during the complimentary introductory consultation.
Sessions are available on a pay-as-you-go basis, with no ongoing financial commitment.
Health insurance is not currently accepted.
Advance payment by bank transfer confirms the appointment.
