About Rachel
Rachel Wright is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief and major life changes. She supports those dealing with depression, addiction, relationship and intimacy concerns, and people managing ADHD or compassion fatigue. Rachel is based in the United Kingdom and works in English. She holds BACP accreditation and has been practising for 13 years.
Rachel often works with complex situations and interpersonal problems. She draws on cognitive behavioural ideas to help spot unhelpful thinking and build practical coping steps. She also uses emotion-focused ways of looking at attachment and patterns in close relationships to help people understand recurring conflict and hurt.
Her background includes work in mental health services and further study in approaches used for relationship difficulties and for self-regulation. She has experience delivering therapy remotely and by telephone as part of her practice. This practical experience informs how she arranges sessions and follows up between meetings.
In sessions Rachel aims for calm, straight talk and clear goals. She helps people set small, manageable steps and notices progress along the way. The focus is on what people can do now to reduce distress and improve daily routines.
For someone coping after a disaster or a sudden life disruption, she offers steadiness and straightforward skills to manage acute stress and rebuild routines. To begin, readers are asked to use the site Start Therapy process and complete a short matching questionnaire to schedule a suitable time.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts without fighting them and then act on values that matter. It can be useful when stress, anxiety or life changes leave someone stuck. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour and teaches practical strategies to break unhelpful cycles and improve routines.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss your goals and preferences and decide together which methods to try. That collaborative process makes it easier to adapt techniques to your day-to-day life and to any immediate needs after a disruptive event.
The profile notes experience delivering telephone and virtual therapy, so those remote options have been used in practice. If you want online or phone sessions, confirm the currently offered formats before booking. Remote sessions can make it simpler to fit therapy into work, childcare or recovery from a disruptive incident, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so appointments are easier to keep.
