I am currently out of the office and will return on the 6th January 2025.

Hello, I’m Rachael. I’m a therapist with an interest in helping people live a more meaningful and fulfilling life. I have experience working with childhood adversity, domestic abuse, medically unexplained symptoms, childhood / developmental trauma, relationship difficulties, anxiety, depression and self-worth.

I currently offer both short-term (anything up to 12 sessions) and long-term (12 and more sessions) individual sessions in person in Dronfield and online, and via telephone, nationwide.

As a Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê¾«×¼×ÊÁÏ registered counsellor, I work within an ethical framework for professional practice and maintain a high level of continuing professional development (CPD) in order to regularly update and improve my knowledge and skills.

I am a humanistic and integrative relational counsellor and psychotherapist offering a supportive, trusting, and confidential space where together, we can work through the difficulties that have prompted you to seek support.

At times we may feel stuck in unhelpful, disconnected, and emotionally painful cycles in our relationships, or our job isn’t fulfilling us. Maybe we feel burdened with guilt and shame and find ourselves withdrawing from the people we love.

Sometimes we don’t even realise we are suffering from our overwhelming experiences and have no idea how to start healing. We may feel anxious, irritable, sad, and hopeless and have no idea why and start to believe that this is how life is. Physical symptoms of fatigue and pain may be plaguing our daily lives, creating debilitating difficulties to get through the day.

I believe the many ways we come to understand and make sense of who we are, including how we relate to others and the world around us, is central to our mental health and physical wellbeing. Unforeseen and adverse childhood and life events, cumulative trauma, separations, losses, and disappointments can all profoundly affect our sense of who we are.

I draw from a range of compassionate and informed approaches, working together with both body and mind to help clients develop self-knowledge and resilience through renewed methods of coping and living a meaningful life. Therapy however does not simply come from training alone. I believe it is equally important to bring myself as a human being into the therapy room. I take special care to balance a down-to-earth approach with evidence-based practice to help clients understand themselves on a deeper level, activate change and facilitate growth.

I am also a Level 3 trained Lifespan Integration therapist - a gentle body-mind based treatment that helps people heal from trauma, abuse, and early attachment issues, allowing a more whole and integrated self to thrive and be present in their lives.

Our first session will be an assessment where we together gain a wider understand of what you want to bring to therapy, what your goals are and how I can help.

I will use the knowledge and understanding gained through our initial sessions to guide which interventions and therapy will be best for you.
