About Rachel
Rachel Florence is a psychotherapist who uses talking therapy and EMDR to help people move through difficult experiences. She has three years of experience and works from the United Kingdom. Rachel aims to meet each person where they are and build a way forward together.
Her practice focuses on relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, grief and intimacy-related issues. She also helps with sleep problems, stress, anxiety, addictions and low self-esteem.
Background and approach
Parents and carers worried about burnout will find support for compassion fatigue and caregiver stress. Rachel pays attention to attachment patterns and abandonment fears that shape how people relate. She offers support for people affected by domestic violence, separation, eating and body image concerns, and for those managing dissociation.
She also works with people who identify as autistic or who have specific personality-related struggles such as avoidant or dependent traits. Sessions combine a person-centred stance with emotionally-focused and attachment-based ideas. EMDR is available where trauma processing is needed.
Rachel adapts her approach to each person’s needs and pace rather than following a fixed formula. People can expect straightforward conversations and practical steps to try between sessions. Rachel concentrates on building emotional safety, improving communication and helping people regain a sense of control.
She uses simple language and clear goals to keep therapy grounded and helpful.

How Rachel’s approaches work online
Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current feelings and reactions. Online sessions help people notice patterns in relationships and practise new ways of connecting. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening, empathy and the client’s own goals; it gives space to talk things through and prioritises what the individual wants to change. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people identify and shift unhelpful emotional patterns that affect relationships and intimacy, making it easier to address closeness and trust issues.Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. Rachel will talk through options, explain what each method involves, and try different ways of working to find what suits the person’s needs and goals. The aim is to match approach and pace so the client feels able to make steady progress.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls allow visual cues and fuller conversations, while phone sessions can fit into a busy day and use less bandwidth. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for short check-ins, ongoing reflections or when writing feels easier than speaking. These formats let people access therapy from different locations across the United Kingdom and fit sessions around work, childcare and other commitments.
