About Rachel
Rachel Sprunt offers calm, practical online counselling for people feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or not themselves. She writes plainly and listens carefully, creating space to talk through stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem or life changes. Rachel introduces herself early in the first session and keeps the tone warm and straightforward.
Her style is person-centred, which means she accompanies clients rather than giving instructions. Conversations focus on what matters to the individual and move at a pace that feels manageable.
Background and approach
Rachel aims to help people notice their own strengths and make clearer choices. Rachel draws on lived experience as well as professional practice. She has navigated cancer, divorce, motherhood and step-parenting, and says those experiences shape her compassion and honesty.
Before counselling she spent over a decade in leadership and business, and she brings that clarity and practical thinking into sessions. She works online with a range of concerns including stress, anxiety, grief, depression and coping with life changes. Additional areas she supports include issues such as attachment, body image, chronic illness and caregiver strain among others.
Sessions are offered in English and take place by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Rachel is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She has three years of counselling experience and works from the United Kingdom.

Practical approaches for online counselling
Rachel’s work is grounded in person-centred practice, which prioritises listening and following the client’s pace to help them find their own answers. This approach suits people navigating grief, anxiety, low self-esteem or life transitions because it keeps the focus on what the person wants to work on.She also brings a practical, clarity-focused stance shaped by her business background. That can mean setting small goals, checking progress between sessions and using straightforward questions to make thoughts and choices clearer. These techniques help when someone feels stuck or needs steps to move forward.
Finding the right approach happens together. The therapist will discuss different ways of working in early sessions and adapt methods to match the person’s needs, goals and preferences. Collaboration guides which tools are used and how sessions are structured.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls allow a face-to-face conversation when more visual contact helps. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging suit people who prefer writing or want ongoing brief support between calls. These options make it simpler to fit counselling around work, family and daily life.
