Williams Stress Management Avis 

Rebecca was great. She demonstrated strong listening skills and was very thoughtful and practical in her approach, providing challenge where needed. Would recommend!

Rebecca facilitated a fabulous session for our Team that included an in depth education around Stress. She asked some very thought provoking questions that ignited great conversation - this flexibility brought the best out of our time together. The balance between presenting and facilitating conversation was spot on and as a Team we are really going to benefit from this session! Top class!

Rebecca came into our College to deliver a one hour training course on "How to manage stress in the workplace". It was a whistle stop course due to the time constraint but that didn't matter at all! Rebecca was really clear, so very knowledgeable and calm to listed too. I certainly came away with some great tips and breathing techniques which I will be putting into practice soon. Thank you!

Rebecca delivered a workshop to my whole team and the messages she shared really resonated with the stress levels they were experiencing. She explained in detail and allowed them to share their experiences. The team felt Rebecca really listened and gave them relevant solutions. Thank you for supporting us in such a meaningful way

Rebecca is one of the kindest people I have ever met. She has a natural warmth that immediately puts you at your ease and draws you into conversation. Her genuine passion for supporting others is evident in everything she does. The feedback from those who have had individual sessions with her as been overwhelmingly positive, with many commenting on her empathetic and compassionate approach. Rebecca has also delivered several stress awareness workshops and presentations for us, both during Mental Health Awareness Week and at other times throughout the year, all of which have been extremely well received. It is rare to meet someone as dedicated and special and I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommencing her services.

Practical, human and genuinely impactful support

I recently had the opportunity to host a Lunch & Learn wellbeing session for Police officers and staff, delivered by Dr Rebecca Williams, and it was excellent.

The session focused on managing stress in a demanding environment and struck exactly the right balance. It wasn’t theory-heavy or corporate. Instead, it was honest, human and evidence-based, with practical tools that people could immediately relate to and use in real life.

Around 30 officers and staff attended, and the feedback afterwards was extremely positive. It was one of those sessions that really landed — people felt understood rather than “talked at”.

What stood out most was Rebecca’s genuine care for the people she supports. In policing (and other public services), wellbeing budgets are often extremely limited, so sessions like this only happen because of professionals who are willing to give their time and expertise because they truly believe in making a difference.

I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Williams Stress Management to any organisation looking for credible, compassionate and practical wellbeing support, particularly in high-pressure roles.

Rebecca helped me with tactics and strategies to deal with anxiety, particularly with a few acute episodes. Full of empathy and understanding, Rebecca quickly got to the heart of the problem, engendering trust. Over our 4 sessions I could feel I was making progress quickly, and I still use some of the techniques she suggested today.

Rebecca has massively helped me with severe anxiety, which resulted in panic attacks over the last few months. She not only gave me tools to manage the symptoms but was able to identify the root cause which has given me a long-term perspective on how I deal with these issues.

I reached out to Rebecca as her background as a GP and now specialising in stress management was appealing knowing that she has expertise in both physical and mental symptoms of stress and anxiety.

Rebecca took time really understand me and helped me identify areas that were causing me stress and offered practical solutions and techniques to help me manage my stress levels. Rebecca has a very reassuring, professional and empathetic approach and I would highly recommend her to anyone struggling with stress and looking to take positive action.

My sessions with Rebecca have been life changing. I desperately needed support with managing anxiety and low self-esteem and Rebecca's support has been incredible.
Having suffered with anxiety for decades, I always felt at its mercy and at times struggled to find ways to cope. During our sessions Rebecca has given me the tools to help me deal with these feelings and for the first time I feel I have something to fight back with.
It is no exaggeration to say that Rebecca's support has been life changing for me.
This was never going to be a quick fix situation and I know I still have to keep working on these things but I have genuinely seen real progress in how I cope with these feelings and that really makes me proud of myself.
I would absolutely recommend Rebecca, she is so warm and kind and her approach and her knowledge and experience are worth their weight in gold!
Thank you Rebecca for everything!

Working with Rebecca has been a life-changing experience for me. I have struggled with anxiety, depression and PTSD for nearly all my life, and have 'tried everything' to help me understand who I am, how to work through problems, and even, that I am a person worthy of love and compassion.

Rebecca came into my life through a seminar organised at my workplace. As soon as you hear her talk, you know she really knows her stuff. She understands how people tick and got a group of disparate people to start opening up and sharing experiences. Using her background as a GP, she was able to give physiological reasons behind many psychological issues and gave us many tips to help with self-regulation and understanding.

I also had three 1:1 sessions with her, which were the most beneficial treatment I have ever had. By use of skilful questioning and listening, she helped me verbalise issues and come to my own conclusions about how they had or were still affecting my life.

I now like myself - this is HUGE. My life is changing in so many ways for the positive; my outlook on life is so much more assured; situations that would normally send me spiralling into a pit of anxiety and stress are now manageable. This is thanks to Rebecca helping me open my eyes - note, helping me open, not opening; I feel this distinction is important, as she has given me tools to understand and strengthen myself, rather than dictating to me.

Thank you, Rebecca.

I recently organised a Stress Management Workshop with Rebecca tailored for our under and post graduate students who are about to start their exams. It proved to be a highly valuable and insightful experience. The session was well-structured, engaging, and focused on practical strategies that can be easily applied when revising for and sitting their exams.
The workshop began with an overview of stress – its causes, symptoms, and effects on mental and physical health. Rebecca made the content relatable by using real-life examples such as exam pressures, deadlines, and balancing studies with personal lives.
One of the highlights was the interactive nature of the session. She discussed breathing exercises, mindfulness techniques, and time-management skills.
Rebecca was knowledgeable and approachable, creating a safe and open environment for students to ask questions and she has written an accompanying book that gives straightforward and practical advice that can be easily implemented.
Overall, the workshop was an excellent reminder of the importance of self-care and mental well-being. It equipped the students with actionable tools to manage stress better and improve their academic performance and personal lives. I would highly recommend her workshops to any student feeling overwhelmed or simply looking to build resilience and emotional awareness.

Dr Rebecca Williams gave a webinar talk to our Team about Stress Awareness. With a very easy manner she outlined what stress is, how our bodies can respond & react to it and the symptoms we should be looking out for. She outlined the steps we should take to assess ourselves and tools to help us deal with it.
All in all Dr Williams gave an excellent overview of what is a complex condition. There was something there for everyone to take away to help them in a way that most benefits them. She has an excellent manner and delivery. I would highly recommend Williams Stress Management to anyone considering this kind of training for their Team.

Rebecca was incredibly helpful over 4 sessions - offering practical techniques, follow up notes and summaries by email, genuine interest/care and impartiality, and also some well placed and challenging questions which were much appreciated to reflect on! I would 100% recommend speaking to her if you are struggling with stress, her expertise is not easy to come by :)

Rebecca has been my rock these past six months. Through both personal and professional challenges, Rebecca has consistently provided a safe place of refuge to allow me the time and space to work through my challenges with her. Her thoughtful, compassionate, friendly nature balances itself so amazingly with her professional knowledge and experience, that enables her to deliver incredible individual support to help me to navigate my journey.

I will be eternally thankful for having met Rebecca and been fortune enough to have her as my therapist. I would strongly recommend her services to anyone facing life's uncertainties.

I had a really positive experience with Rebecca. During our 1-1 sessions I felt comfortable sharing how I was feeling straight away and she gave me some really helpful tools to help manage my stress and anxiety. People have commented that I am a completely different person since our sessions, I feel much more in control and am a much happier and calmer version of myself! I wouldn't hesitate to go back to Rebecca should I need to in the future or recommend her to anyone needing some support.

Rebecca, was an excellent host, covered lots of ground and situations with some practical solutions

I had a very positive experience with Rebecca. Her empathetic approach helped me understand that when I was feeling overwhelmed, I should use grounding tools to engage my “rational brain”.

Sessions felt safe and supportive, leading to noticeable improvements in my well-being. Highly recommend for anyone seeking relief and guidance!

I have found the sessions with Rebecca incredibly useful and they have made a serious impact on how I deal with stress. I have never had any sessions like this previously and this was a new experience for me, but Rebecca helped guide me through the process, allowing me to talk and prompting and directing discussions in a useful way.

Rebecca is very good at providing tools and advice on how to cope in specific or general situations, but doesn’t overload you with too much jargon and exercises.

In the end, I had 8 sessions with Rebecca, but will definitely arrange more down the line, as and when needed. I would also highly recommend her for 1-1 sessions or group sessions.

Rebecca has a great cadence and calming presence - we attended a stress workshop with her and I must say I genuinely think it was one of the best things I have done for my mental health this year.

I took lots of notes and have started incorporating her techniques, such as diaphragmatic breathing, to use when I need a moment of peace. The way Rebecca delivered information and held the workshop was well done, and I noticed a lot of the attendees left the workshop feeling better for attending.

Rebecca cares about her work and this can be felt when working with her - she is able to explore difficult topics, like addiction, with empathy and understanding. Stress can come in many different forms, and although at the beginning I kept telling myself there’s no way I’m stressed - by the end I was able to pin point areas of stress and acknowledge there was some work to be done to enable myself to be free of certain stressors.

I’ve recommended Rebecca to my friends and would happily recommend her here too. She offers a guiding hand through life’s complex journey, and can be a pillar of support when dealing with stress. She also has a book which I’d recommend carrying around with you and adding to even after the sessions with her - it’s a handy way to be empowered to continue working on yourself too.
