You're not alone and you don't have to have it all figured out.

Hi, I'm Rachel, a qualified counsellor and a real human behind the title. I offer warm, down-to-earth online counselling for people who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or just not themselves right now.

Whether you're navigating big changes, carrying grief or anxiety, facing relationship challenges, or simply trying to make sense of who you are, I provide a calm, supportive space for you to explore what matters - at your own pace, without judgement.

My approach is grounded in the person-centred tradition, which means I’ll walk alongside you rather than tell you what to do. I believe you already hold the answers and my role is to help you hear them more clearly.

Counselling isn’t just a profession for me, it’s deeply personal. I’ve faced my own storms, including cancer, divorce, motherhood, step-parenting, and career reinvention. These experiences don’t make me an expert in your life, but they do shape my empathy, honesty, and ability to really sit with you in the tough stuff.

Before becoming a counsellor, I spent over a decade in leadership and business. Today, I bring that same clarity, focus, and genuine care into my therapy work - holding space that’s both compassionate and gently challenging, when needed.

If you’re reaching out for the first time, know this: it’s okay to feel unsure. You’ve already made a brave step by being here.

Let’s explore what you need, together.

Before we meet for our first session, we’ll probably have had a free 15-minute phone or video call which would have been just a quick chat to say hi, talk about what’s bringing you to counselling, and see if it feels like a good fit.

The first full session is really about getting to know each other. There’s no pressure to dive into anything heavy, it’s a chance to start building a connection and get a feel for how we might work together. We’ll talk a bit more about what’s going on for you, what you’d like from counselling, and I’ll explain how I work. You’re welcome to ask any questions, and we’ll go at your pace.

You're not alone, and you don't have to have it all figured out.
