About Me

Hi, I'm Rachel.

I'm a psychotherapist who believes that being genuinely heard and understood can make a meaningful difference. I aim to offer a warm, calm and non-judgemental space where you can be yourself and talk openly about whatever is bringing you to therapy.

My background in social care and community work has given me many years of experience supporting people through different stages and circumstances of life. It has shaped the way I work today - with curiosity, compassion and a strong belief in the importance of the relationship between therapist and client.

I work from an integrative, person-centred approach, adapting therapy to you rather than expecting you to fit into a particular way of working. I believe we all move through different versions of ourselves throughout our lives, and sometimes we need space to pause, reflect and make sense of where we are.

You don't need to have everything figured out before starting therapy. We can begin wherever you are.

Clinical Experience

I work therapeutically with adults, supporting people through a range of emotional and life challenges, including anxiety, stress, low mood, self-esteem, relationships, grief, life transitions and trauma.

My wider professional experience in social care and community settings has also given me a strong understanding of relationships, lived experiences and the different circumstances that can shape how we navigate the world.

I continue to develop my practice through ongoing professional development, clinical supervision and reflective practice.
