Rachel Button, BACP

Rachel draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that aim to help people understand and change what keeps them stuck. One common approach focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing them with small, practical experiments to reduce worry and low mood. This can help with anxiety, depression and health anxiety by giving clear steps to try between sessions.

Another approach looks at past experiences and attachment patterns to understand how they affect current relationships and self-worth. Talking through important memories and current relationship dynamics can help people develop kinder ways of relating to themselves and others, which often reduces shame and isolation.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Rachel works with each person to agree which methods to try, tailoring the work to their goals and comfort level. She checks progress regularly and adjusts the plan when needed so therapy stays practical and relevant.

Online therapy offers flexibility for people balancing work, family or health demands. Video calls let people work face to face when that feels important, phone sessions use less data and can be easier to fit into a busy day, and live chat or text messaging allow short check-ins or written reflections between appointments. These options make it simpler to keep therapy consistent and manageable within everyday life.
