About Rachel
Rachel Sprunt offers calm, down-to-earth online counselling for people feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or not themselves right now. She creates a straightforward, non-judgemental space where a worried parent can talk through stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem or life changes. Rachel writes plainly and listens closely so conversations feel real and practical.
Rachel works from a person-centred approach, which means she follows each person's pace and priorities rather than giving ready-made answers.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on helping people notice their own strengths and make clearer choices about next steps. She balances warmth with gentle challenge when it will help move things forward. Her background includes three years of counselling practice and a previous career in leadership and business.
That prior work taught her to be organised and solution-focused, skills she now uses alongside empathic listening. Rachel’s life experience has included serious illness, divorce and parenting, and she draws on this lived experience to relate honestly to clients. Rachel is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, shown as BACP, which is listed among her credentials.
She provides sessions in English across a range of concerns such as depression, coping with life changes, and caregiver stress. Therapy sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging. Getting started is a short online process where people complete a matching questionnaire and then book sessions to suit their schedule.

Online support
She combines that with practical, short-term problem work when it helps. That means clarifying goals, noticing unhelpful patterns and trying small changes between sessions to test what works. This mix suits people who want warmth and understanding alongside clear, manageable steps.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Rachel will discuss different ways of working and agree on what feels most useful. The decision is collaborative and can change as needs and goals become clearer.
Online therapy offers flexibility and easier access to regular sessions. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions need less bandwidth, live chat supports written check-ins and text messaging works for brief updates or quick reflections. These options make it easier to fit counselling around family, work and medical appointments while keeping continuity of care.
