I’m here to help you hear yourself. To invite you to extend a gentle curiosity towards how you're operating - how you treat yourself, how you reach-for and respond to your environment, to other people, to the natural world. By lingering with our experiences in the present moment - our feelings, thoughts, sensations, gestures - and then taking time to notice what we’ve found, we learn about how our patterns of relating serve us, and how we limit ourselves. We can expand our capacity for self-understanding and self-compassion, which is a rich ground for change.

Hello, I'm Rachael. There could be many reasons why you’re looking for therapy.

Clients come to me when they feel hopeless, misunderstood and stuck; they may be looking for a way to feel more connection and joy; they often know that life could and should be better for them, that their mental health could be stronger, but they just cannot get there on their own. I work well with clients who have experienced loss and those who are trying to find their place in a new life stage, as well as individuals who are impacted by shame and those seeking healing from past trauma. I have significant experience working with LGBTQ+ clients, people in non-traditional relationships and neuroatypical people.

Psychological therapy involves exploring one’s life story, the current difficulties and their contexts, making sense of the difficulties together, identifying what you would like help and support with, defining individualised goals, applying specialist therapeutic interventions to help transform, heal and make change, with regular review of progress. Yoga Therapy is the science of applying yoga to overcome health difficulties, integrating mind, body, emotional and spiritual influences through breathing techniques, embodied movement, yoga postures, meditation, mindfulness-based approaches and lifestyle guidance.

I believe that therapy allows you to take a more active role in understanding and experiencing your emotions. When we are not aware of our emotions or ideas, it can mean we act out certain behaviours – or experience certain feelings - without knowing why. And while we might be able to tolerate this for some time – perhaps even for a long time - I believe there is a difference between surviving and living. Developing a closer – or less mysterious - relationship with ourselves can allow us to go beyond living life passively and begin to really experience it.

Most people want to feel good within themselves and within their lives. I don’t think this is too much to ask! If obstacles have previously prevented this, it does not mean the future need be the same. Change is always possible and often we need a helping hand. I am passionate about collaboration as the most empowering route on a therapeutic journey. You have the strength and the answers and together we can make sense of any hurt, obstacle or fear.

At times life is challenging and you might be feeling anxious, depressed or experiencing a significant life event such as bereavement, end of a relationship or redundancy.

I will help you explore any issues which might be concerning you: current and historic life events, feelings, relationships, ways of thinking and patterns of behaviour. This process will help you to more fully understand yourself, ultimately allowing you to take greater control and live a life that feels more connected and fulfilling

Many people now have therapy, for different reasons and from a range of backgrounds. You might be feeling overwhelmed and not wanting to handle difficulties without support anymore; or be feeling confused, conflicted and just need help to understand things more clearly. Therapy provides a safe, confidential and consistent space to start exploring some of the things about ourselves that can be difficult to understand. People come with depression, anxiety, family issues, relationship dynamics, trauma or wanting to understand repeated patterns.
