I work as a relational and developmental integrative psychotherapist, by working with you to explore, process and further understand your relationships with yourself and others, defences mechanisms, coping strategies, thinking patterns, emotions and behaviour depending on what you would like to achive in therapy.
Over the last five years I have worked with people experiencing the below in particular:
- an internal critic taking over
- social or health anxiety
- feeling overwhelmed or overthinking
- feel worried, stressed, bullied or shutdown at work
- struggling in relationships,
- struggle when there is conflict or confrontation
- needing to talk about experiences growing up or link the impact of this experience on how they are now
- self-doubt, low self-confidence
- life is passing them by
- finding themselves reacting to situations instead of feeling in control

I’ve recently started therapy and didn’t know how things would go but Rachael has helped me to understand the process and learn new things to reach the goals we are setting out
