About Rachel
Rachel Wright is a counsellor with 13 years' experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, grief and depression. She offers a calm, straightforward way of working that aims to ease day-to-day pressure and improve coping. Rachel talks through what matters most to the person in front of her and helps them find practical steps forward.
Rachel uses approaches that focus on thoughts, feelings and relationships. She draws on cognitive behavioural techniques to spot unhelpful thinking patterns.
Background and approach
She also uses dialectical behaviour ideas to teach emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills. Her work is collaborative and person-centred. Sessions tend to emphasise practical tools alongside space to reflect on difficult experiences.
Rachel pays attention to relationship patterns, attachment issues and past losses when these are part of what someone brings to therapy. Rachel is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, abbreviated as BACP. She has a history of delivering sessions remotely, including phone and video work.
She can also support people through messaging and live chat formats. People come to Rachel for many reasons: addiction struggles, sexual and intimacy concerns, eating and sleeping problems, parenting strain, and career stress. She also supports those dealing with trauma, bipolar mood issues, ADHD and complex co-morbidity.
Her practice includes attention to particular circumstances such as adoption and foster care, aging and caregiver stress. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions. Fees use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time and vary by location and therapist availability.

Online support
She also draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to identify and change unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns. CBT is practical and skills-based, useful for anxiety, low mood, sleeping problems and many daily-life difficulties.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, try methods together, and adapt what they do based on what helps most. That collaborative process helps match techniques to a person's needs and preferences rather than relying on a single method.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging to give flexibility. Video works well when you want face-to-face conversation, phone can be useful when bandwidth is limited, and messaging suits brief check-ins or ongoing written support. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, childcare or travel and let people choose what feels most practical for them.
