About Rachel
Rachel Harris is a counsellor who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, relationship pain and trauma. She works with people facing depression, addictions, self-esteem struggles and life transitions. Rachel's background includes three years of hands-on experience in mental health and wellbeing in the United Kingdom.
She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, often abbreviated as BACP. Rachel aims to make therapy straightforward and practical. Sessions are a place to talk through current problems and learn ways to cope day to day.
Background and approach
She listens for how past experiences shape present responses and helps people spot patterns that cause pain. Common themes she supports include attachment and abandonment worries, family problems, communication difficulties and the emotional effects of separation or infidelity. She also helps with feelings of emptiness, guilt, isolation and work-related stress.
Rachel adapts her approach to what each person needs. That can mean short-term focused work for a specific problem or longer conversations about deep-seated issues. She pays attention to practical steps people can try between sessions.
People have told her that warmth and empathy make it easier to open up. Rachel aims to create a steady, respectful space where people can explore change at their own pace. She supports young adults and adults dealing with life transitions, women's issues, financial worries and caregiver stress.
If someone prefers online contact, Rachel offers a mix of video, phone, live chat and text-based messaging to suit different needs and schedules.

Therapeutic approaches and flexible online sessions
Rachel works with evidence-based therapeutic techniques that help people understand patterns and find practical ways to cope. One common approach focuses on recognising how past attachment and abandonment experiences shape current relationships and emotional responses; this helps when trust, communication or intimacy feel difficult. Another approach emphasises step-by-step coping skills for anxiety and stress, teaching breathing, grounding and behavioural adjustments that reduce overwhelm and make daily life more manageable.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Rachel will collaborate with each person to identify which methods match their needs, goals and preferences, and she will adjust the plan as progress is made. The aim is to find what feels useful and doable together.
Online sessions offer practical benefits for many people. Video calls let conversations feel close to in-person meetings, phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier if someone does not want to be on camera, while live chat and text-based messaging provide shorter check-ins or written reflection between meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving and busy schedules.
