About Rachel

Rachel Strange is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression and life changes such as divorce and separation. She works with clients facing relationship strain, family conflict, grief, parenting pressures and difficulties with self-esteem. Rachel also supports people navigating trauma, intimacy issues, anger and the impacts of chronic illness or caregiving stress.

She uses a client-centred approach that treats the person as the expert in their own life. Sessions are offered at a pace the client chooses, with Rachel providing a warm and empathic presence rather than directing outcomes. The focus is on uncovering strengths and making sense of painful or confusing experiences.

Rachel has three years' experience working with adults in the UK. Her practice includes supporting neurodiverse and neurodivergent people who want a thoughtful, non-judgemental space to talk things through. She works with a broad range of concerns including ADHD, attachment and abandonment issues, body image, career stress and compassion fatigue.

Clients can expect practical listening and reflective feedback aimed at helping them feel steadier and more able to make choices. Sessions aim to build on existing resources and help people notice what is already working in their lives. Rachel describes her role as accompanying people while they make changes they want to see.

To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions according to the therapist's availability. The service uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time, with costs varying by location and therapist availability.

How client-centred work adapts to online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy puts the person at the heart of the work. It focuses on listening closely, reflecting what matters to the client and creating a non-judgemental space. This approach helps with feelings of anxiety, depression, relationship worries and life transitions by supporting people to understand their own priorities and choices.

Rachel emphasises working at the client's pace and follows what the client brings to sessions. Deciding which way of working suits someone is a collaborative process; the therapist and client explore goals and preferences together and adjust the approach as they go.

Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions more easily into a busy week and reducing travel time. Online work can make it simpler to have shorter check-ins during a lunch break or to access counselling from different parts of the UK. The profile does not list specific session formats here, so please confirm current session options when booking to make sure they fit your routine and needs.
