About Rachel

Rachel Andrews welcomes people who are feeling overwhelmed by family strain or parenting pressures. She supports those coping with relationship troubles, grief, stress, anxiety and mood changes. Rachel also helps with concerns such as addictions, eating and sleeping problems, low self-esteem, anger and the impact of trauma or abuse.

Rachel holds BACP accreditation and has seven years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She has particular experience supporting adolescents and young adults, though she works with adults across a wide range of life challenges. Sessions aim to be warm and non-judgemental so people feel able to talk openly about what matters to them.

Her way of working focuses on the person in front of her. Rachel uses client-centred methods to listen and reflect, helping people identify what they want to change. She also draws on cognitive behavioural techniques to spot unhelpful thinking patterns and try practical alternatives.

In sessions she encourages realistic, manageable steps that fit into everyday life. Conversations may include exploring recent difficulties, developing coping strategies and practising new ways of responding to stress. Rachel seeks to build a trusting working relationship where progress is steady and practical.

How Rachel’s approaches work in online sessions

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on being listened to without judgement. The therapist reflects your concerns and helps you clarify what matters most, which can be helpful for relationship and parenting worries.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours connect. It helps people spot patterns that keep problems going and practise different ways of thinking and acting, useful for anxiety, low mood and stress.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Rachel will work together with each person to decide which methods suit their goals and preferences. She adapts tools and pace to the needs people bring, checking in about what is or is not helpful as therapy proceeds.

Many people find online therapy helps fit counselling into busy days. It can make sessions easier to schedule around work, childcare or travel. If you are considering online sessions, confirm the exact formats offered before booking so they match your needs. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists use online working to offer continuity of support and practical ways to keep progressing between sessions.
