About Rachael
Rachael Bentovim-Gill is a counsellor who helps people facing depression, anxiety, stress and trauma. She supports clients dealing with bipolar symptoms, ADHD, addictions and relationship or intimacy problems. Rachael also assists with grief, parenting strain, sleep and eating concerns, and work or career pressures.
She draws on about four years of practice as a therapist alongside a long background in mental health and education. Before independent practice she spent many years mentoring teams and advising on mental health in education and other settings.
Background and approach
That experience informs her practical, straightforward approach in sessions. Sessions focus on what the person wants to change. Rachael uses a mix of approaches such as cognitive behavioural techniques, acceptance and commitment ideas, attachment-focused work and client-centred listening.
She adapts tools to each person so sessions feel relevant and doable. People can expect short-term practical strategies alongside space to talk about difficult feelings and past hurts. Rachael aims to build a calm, non-judging atmosphere where people can try new ways of managing thoughts and behaviours.
She also offers coaching-style support for career or professional concerns. Rachael works in the United Kingdom and conducts sessions in English. She carries the NCPS credential.

Online support
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She will discuss your goals and preferences and then match methods that suit you. That collaborative process means techniques are tailored to your situation rather than imposed.
Online formats available include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging. Video calls let you see each other and work through exercises together. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when you prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for shorter check-ins, paced reflection or people who find writing easier than speaking. These options aim to make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into everyday life.
