About me
Hello, I’m Rachael thanks for visiting my profile; I offer a safe, non-judgmental space to explore individual problems at your own pace.
I am passionate about helping people become the best version of themselves and will work with you to find the solution that is right for you.
Accepting that you need help can be hard so well done for taking the first step.
Training, qualifications & experience
I am an empathetic, dedicated counsellor and I am a Registered Member of BACP with several years experience with bereavement as well as rape and sexual violence.
I work in a person centered way but draw on several therapeutic techniques and have experience helping people with a broad range of complex mental health issues such as PTSD, trauma, suicidal thoughts, self harm, abuse, anxiety, depression issues of low self esteem.
Member organisations
BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred).
Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision.
Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training.
All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.
