About Rachel
Rachel Barrett is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people facing stress, anxiety and depression. She speaks plainly and offers a calm, non-judgemental space for people to talk about difficult feelings. Rachel uses simple, practical steps so conversations feel useful from the start.
She has three years of professional experience and holds BACP accreditation. Rachel draws on approaches that suit each person's needs rather than a single fixed method.
Background and approach
Sessions are focused on what is happening now and what small changes might help day to day. Rachel often works with people facing relationship strain, grief, or trauma and abuse. She also supports those dealing with low self-esteem, anger, compassion fatigue and life changes.
Other areas she notices in her work include ADHD, attachment difficulties and problems with communication or commitment. Her style is collaborative and conversational. She listens first, then offers ideas from therapies such as cognitive behavioural and mindfulness-based work.
Clients can expect practical tools alongside space to talk through painful memories and current problems. Rachel encourages people to take manageable steps toward clearer thinking and steadier mood. She helps clients set small goals and notice the progress they make.
The aim is to leave each session with something they can try between meetings.

Online support
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Rachel will listen to what matters to the client and try different methods together. She works collaboratively to decide which techniques fit goals and preferences, and adjusts the plan as progress is made.
Online therapy with video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging offers flexibility for different schedules and styles. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation; phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or messaging suits brief check-ins, written reflection or people who prefer not to be on camera. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, family or travel commitments.
