About Rachel

Rachel Wright is a counsellor with 13 years of experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression and relationship concerns, and also supports those dealing with grief, addiction and trauma. Rachel lists LGBT among her focus areas and aims to offer a respectful, understanding space for people from diverse backgrounds.

She uses straightforward, practical approaches in sessions. Rachel draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to look at patterns of thought and behaviour.

Background and approach

She also uses Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) skills for managing intense emotions, and Attachment-Based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current ones. Rachel has worked extensively within mental health services and with complex cases.

The biography notes she completed additional training in an Improving Access to Psychological Therapies approved couples model for depression, and in DBT and Cognitive Behaviour Analysis System of Psychotherapy. She has experience delivering telephone and virtual therapy. In sessions she focuses on practical steps people can try between meetings.

Conversations are collaborative and paced to match each person’s needs. Rachel also offers coaching-style support for life changes, career concerns and building coping skills. People choosing to work with Rachel will follow an initial matching process.

Online support

Therapeutic approaches and online support

Rachel often draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy in her online work. CBT looks at how thoughts and behaviours interact, and helps people try practical steps to change unhelpful patterns. DBT offers skills for managing strong emotions, improving distress tolerance and handling conflict more calmly.

She also uses Attachment-Based ideas to understand how early relationship patterns influence current connections. That approach can help when difficulties repeat across different relationships or when trust and closeness are hard to build.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals and preferences and make decisions together about which methods to use. This collaborative plan can change as things move forward, and Rachel aims to match methods to each person's needs.

Her biography notes experience with telephone and virtual therapy, but readers should confirm current session options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They can also let someone continue work while living abroad, since international clients are accepted. Overall, online work is presented as a practical way to access ongoing support while finding the right therapeutic fit.
