About Rachel
Rachel Harris works from evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people manage stress, anxiety, depression and the effects of trauma and abuse. She is Rachel Harris, a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She keeps sessions straightforward and focused.
People come with relationship strain, addiction concerns, low self-esteem or trouble coping with life changes. Rachel listens, asks practical questions and helps people spot patterns that make life harder.
Background and approach
Her experience includes supporting people through family problems, communication breakdowns and separation. She also helps with feelings of emptiness, guilt, shame and the emotional fallout from infidelity. Work and money worries, caregiving stress and issues linked to young adulthood are also within her practice focus.
Rachel pays attention to attachment and abandonment concerns and to how ADHD can affect mood and daily routines. Therapy aims to build small, manageable steps so people can try different ways of responding and see what helps. She offers a calm, empathetic presence and works in a way that is practical and person-centred.
Rachel follows the BACP ethical framework and brings three years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. Her sessions are conducted in English and are shaped around each person's goals and pace.

Therapeutic approaches and online working
Rachel draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change and emotional understanding. One common approach she uses helps people recognise unhelpful thought and behaviour patterns and then try small experiments to change them; this approach suits anxiety, low mood and stress. Another approach focuses on attachment and relationship dynamics, helping people understand past patterns that shape current relationships and how to try new ways of relating.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist discusses goals and preferences with each person and adapts methods over time. Together they decide which techniques feel most useful and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to give practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when a shorter check-in or lower bandwidth is needed. Live chat and text messaging suit people who prefer to write or need brief, ongoing support between calls. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving and daily life while keeping the focus on progress and what helps.
