About Rachel

Rachel Andrews works with people on relationship and family issues, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, stress and anxiety, and a wide range of other concerns including addictions, intimacy issues, eating and sleeping problems, parenting, anger, self-esteem and coping with life changes. She uses client-centred work and cognitive behavioural techniques to help people talk through practical problems and find ways to manage day-to-day challenges. Rachel is a BACP member and has seven years of professional experience in the UK.

Rachel focuses on clear, direct conversations. She listens to what the person brings and helps them make sense of their situation. Sessions look at patterns of thinking and behaviour and at practical steps someone can try between meetings.

She has particular experience with adolescents and young adults, and has supported people with bereavement, long-term health conditions, OCD and eating difficulties. That background means she often combines listening with structured tools to address specific problems such as anxiety or sleep disruption.

In practice Rachel aims to build trust through steady, respectful work. She and the client set goals together and agree on how to approach them, using a mix of client-centred discussion and cognitive behavioural ideas. Progress is reviewed regularly and sessions can be adjusted as needed.

Sessions are delivered from the United Kingdom and are conducted in English. People who live outside the UK can also be matched to her sessions through the service.

How Rachel uses client-centred and CBT approaches online

Rachel describes her work through client-centred practice and cognitive behavioural approaches. Client-centred work involves listening closely to what the person brings, reflecting it back, and helping them set their own goals; this approach is helpful for building trust and exploring feelings such as grief, low self-esteem or relationship strain.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and uses straightforward strategies to change unhelpful patterns. CBT is often used for problems like anxiety, sleep disturbance, mood changes and coping with stress.

Deciding on the best approach is part of the work. Rachel will discuss what is helpful and agree a plan with the person based on their needs, goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process and approaches can be adjusted as the work progresses.

The practical benefits of remote sessions include fitting meetings around work or study and reducing travel time.
