About Rachel
Rachel Wright is a counsellor with 13 years of experience who helps people facing depression and other difficult life challenges. She works with people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, grief or relationship problems and wants to make therapy clear and manageable. Her approach is practical and people-focused, with straightforward conversations rather than jargon.
She draws on a mix of established approaches to shape sessions around each person's needs.
Background and approach
Cognitive behavioural techniques help with changing unhelpful thought and behaviour patterns. Dialectical ideas teach emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills for times of intense feeling. Attachment-informed work looks at how early relationships affect current trust and closeness.
Sessions can explore difficult experiences such as trauma, addictions, body image and parenting strain. She also supports people facing life changes, chronic illness, or workplace stress. Rachel includes discussion of how mood, sleep and daily routine interact with low mood and energy.
Rachel has provided remote therapy and is comfortable using phone and video sessions. She aims to build a calm, non-judgemental space where people can speak openly and try small, workable changes between sessions. People who choose her often want practical strategies alongside reflective conversation.
She will work collaboratively to set goals and check progress so therapy stays focused on what matters to the person seeking support.

Online support
She also draws on Dialectical Behaviour Therapy ideas to teach skills for managing strong emotions and reducing impulsive reactions. DBT-style skills work well in brief live chat check-ins or in between-session text messaging to practise new tools.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will discuss goals, preferences and what has or hasn’t helped before, then suggest a mix of methods tailored to the person. This is a collaborative process and the plan can change as therapy progresses.
Online sessions offer flexibility for different needs. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging suit short check-ins, homework support or people who find writing easier than speaking. Registered or accredited professionals can use these formats to make therapy fit around work, family and day-to-day commitments.
