About me

Counselling for Women (18+) in the UK

  • Website: www.racheljacksoncounselling.co.uk
  • Contact me: 07474 473 869 / RJacksonCounselling@protonmail.com

I offer online talking therapy and reduced-cost EMDR therapy for enquiries received prior to 3rd October (I am completing my training currently).

I have availability for in person appointments from mid-September in Torfaen.

It can be really hard to find time to prioritise ourselves, our mental health and our wellbeing. By connecting, exploring, sharing honestly and openly (at your own pace) about what you're going through, counselling sessions can help you to:

  • make sense of what's been happening
  • feel less overwhelmed by everything you're carrying
  • discover who you are now, with compassion for everything you've been through
  • find your own version of joy and a greater sense of calm

Online counselling is via Zoom and sessions can be weekly, fortnightly or monthly, at £60 per session (60-minutes).

I am looking into renting a room in Torfaen, South Wales, with availability for in person sessions from September - to be confirmed.

Contact me for a free 15 minute, no obligation, chat to talk through your hopes for counselling and to see if we could work well together or to book in with your first counselling appointment.

Whilst I specialise in supporting young women aged 18-40, I welcome enquiries from anyone who feels I may be the right therapist for them.

The first step can be the hardest - you've got this!

I look forward to hearing from you,

Rachel

Member organisations

Registered / Accredited

Registered / Accredited

Being registered/accredited with a professional body means an individual must have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by their member organisation.

BACP
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP)

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

British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy
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.

Fees

Additional information

I offer a free 15 minute chat over the phone so you can get a feel for whether we could work well together and ask any questions.

Following this, 60-minute counselling sessions are £60, weekly or fortnightly 

I can also provide an initial longer 90-minute appointment at £100, which includes personalised resources and information sent across to you following the session. This can be attended either as a one-off solution-focused appointment or followed by additional 60-minute counselling sessions.

Further information

Please contact me if you would like to find out more if we could work together, with no obligation to continue with therapy thereafter, and I can answer any questions you may have.

Please know that I am unable to work with students who study at Cardiff University due to my job role as counsellor at the University.
