Rachel Nash
Calm, practical support for difficult feelings
About Rachel
Rachel Nash is a BACP counsellor with three years of clinical experience. She offers a calm, non-judgemental space where people can talk about what feels hard. Rachel emphasises practical steps alongside emotional understanding.
She aims to help people feel steadier and more able to manage day-to-day stressors. Rachel believes counselling can help people understand themselves better and build self-esteem. She works in a collaborative way so clients shape the pace and focus of sessions.
Background and approach
Her approach draws on a range of evidence-based techniques to match what each person needs. She has particular experience supporting people with stress, anxiety and depression. She also has experience with grief, eating concerns and low self-esteem.
Rachel has worked with people who have struggled with self-harm and suicidal thoughts, and she brings that experience into risk-aware, thoughtful conversations. Sessions are straightforward and goal-focused when that suits, and more exploratory when people need to make sense of painful feelings. Rachel aims to help people develop coping strategies they can use between sessions.
She will also work with clients to revisit goals as circumstances change. People meet Rachel for video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. She works in English and practises from the United Kingdom.
Getting started involves a short matching questionnaire and arranging sessions to suit the individual.

Approaches that guide online sessions and how they help
Rachel uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that are practical and adaptable. One common approach is focused work on coping skills - teaching simple strategies to reduce anxiety, manage low mood and handle overwhelming feelings. These tools can be practised between sessions to make everyday life easier.Another strand is grief-aware conversation, which helps people make sense of loss and find ways to remember and adjust. This approach supports emotional processing and practical planning for the changes that follow bereavement.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist and client decide together which techniques to try, based on current problems, goals and personal preference. Methods are reviewed and adjusted as progress is made, so the plan stays relevant.
Online therapy offers flexibility. Video calls enable face-to-face conversation when visual contact helps. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth or camera use is a concern. Live chat and text-based messaging suit shorter check-ins, quick updates or people who prefer writing to speaking. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, childcare and travel commitments, while keeping the same therapeutic focus as in-person work.
