About me
I am now working face to face again as well as online.
I am happy to work with couples and individuals from adolescents to adults.
I can help if life feels a little too hard, if you are struggling with anxieties and would like to see if your life could be a little easier. I can listen to how your life feels for you and with you work out what you might like to change.
I can help you make you a priority in your life.
We can also offer some spaces to work with counsellors who have completed their training - these are lower fee spaces - please contact me for details

Member organisations
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy
BACP is one of the UK’s largest professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy. Therapists registered with the Association fall into a number of different membership categories such as Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP and Registered Member MBACP (Accred), each standing for different levels of training and experience. MBACP (Accred) and MBACP (Snr Accred) members have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by the Association.
Registered members can be found on the BACP Register, which was the first register to achieve Accredited Voluntary Register status issued by the Professional Standards Authority. Individual Members will have completed an appropriate counselling and/or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but will not appear on the BACP Register until they've progressed to Registered Member MBACP status.
All members are bound by a Code of Ethics & Practice and a Complaints Procedure. Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.
Accredited register membership
Accredited Register Scheme
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.

Further information
Here are a couple of recent testimonials: -
Over one year of counselling, I trusted Rachel, as she showed me that she sincerely cared about me. She never made me feel that I was just another client. She was especially gentle and compassionate when I needed her most when my mother died suddenly. I was able to contact her immediately on the telephone, as I felt my world was falling apart even more.
Counselling is challenging but because I have been given the tools to rebuild my life from the lowest state imaginable to the point at which I am now, I am able to function confidently on a day-to-day basis as my low self esteem and anxiety now hold much smaller parts of my sense of worth.
I always felt like a priority. Rachel was very reliable, understanding, positive, patient, warm, professional and very funny!
I am free at last! Don't think twice about going ahead with it, just do it! It will change your life like you never imagined. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. SA Female
I worked with Rachel for some eight months and found it to be one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. Rachel's playful and visual style worked brilliantly as a tool for me to better understand my own thought processes and her relaxed, lighthearted approach to conversation put me at ease and made my problems feel less like something to be ashamed of and more like just another part of me that I could get control of.
I would not hesitate to recommend Rachel to anybody and feel reassured by the fact that, despite my time with her being complete for now, she remains available to me should I ever need to talk again in the future. MS Male late 20s
Rachel helped me when I very much needed someone to talk to, she made me feel very comfortable, it was like chatting to an old friend. She listened without interruption, offered kind but firm advice, through her I saw different ways of direction.
Rachel supported me through a time where the light at the end of the tunnel had been turned off, she helped me see that it could be turned back on again. Life is back on track, thank you Rachel. GW female early 60s
