About me
Hello, I’m Rachael Hough, a professional counsellor with a Level 4 diploma in therapeutic counselling. With a passion for helping people and making a positive impact, I have been practicing as a counsellor for the past two years.
As an integrative counsellor, I draw from various therapeutic approaches and techniques to tailor my sessions to the unique needs of each client. I understand that every individual’s journey is different, and I strive to create a supportive and non-judgmental environment where they can explore their thoughts, emotions, and concerns.
If you are ready to take the first step towards positive change, I invite you to reach out. Together, we can explore your concerns, work towards your goals, and empower you to live a happier, more fulfilled life.

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.
