If you have been struggling with anxiety, self-criticism, shame, low mood, difficult emotions & relationships, it may be the right time to find a trusted therapist; someone to help you understand & grow from the effects of adversity, stress & trauma. Our wellbeing can be affected by many things - work stress, early adversity, significant trauma or relationships, and we do our best to find helpful coping strategies. When our ways of coping don't work so well, we can feel stuck and isolated - psychological therapy can help us move beyond those barriers. I focus on you as an individual, without using labels or diagnoses.

Hi, my name is Rachel. I work with both adults and young people. I offer a warm and safe space in which we can explore your emotions and the areas of your life that are causing you concerns. I have experience in trauma, domestic abuse, loss and grief. During the sessions we can work together to understand what you have experienced and endured and how this is affecting your every day life. I work in an authentic, empathic and genuine approach. I do not direct clients, instead we experience a journey of discovery and healing.

My approach is clinical, caring and collaborative. My clients generally start treatment when they feel stuck, anxious or have experienced a significant event. By providing a safe space, we explore the presenting difficulties, whilst exploring what happened, what is maintaining the problem and what can we do to reframe or change the current situation. Clients usually start with the goal of I want to be happy or I want to feel like myself again, So we explore exactly what is happiness to you? Why do you currently not have it? What happened? and what would need to change for you to have it? Then we collaboratively bridge the gap.

Does your child or young person struggle with anxiety, emotional regulation or meltdowns? Are you struggling to know how best to support them? Does it feel as if their world is shrinking as they avoid situations that feel difficult? It can be hard as a parent knowing how to support young people and how to respond for the best. Young people often value a therapeutic space to explore their experiences and tricky feelings, and parents can benefit from sessions to support their understanding of their child's needs. When families have a good understanding of their child’s needs, they are better able to support them in a sensitive way.

You may have noticed that I'm male - not a common thing amongst therapists but often critical in challenging past negative experiences of masculinity. I've learnt to be a man who is comfortable being kind, nurturing and vulnerable but still strong, especially with feeling my own emotions, because sometimes 'feeling' can be really scary for us all.

Hi everyone, I'm a psychotherapist working online. My approach is integrative, meaning I use different therapy methods, such as EMDR, that will help with your recovery process.

People decide to look for therapy for many reasons; stress, anxiety or depression, difficulties in relationships; anything that's stopping them living the life they want. I place importance on helping clients understand the causes, not simply focusing on the symptoms. Ultimately, knowing yourself better is the key to a more fulfilling life, with improved relationships and feeling better within yourself on a day to day basis.
