Rachel Strange , NCPS

Rachel Strange is a UK-based counsellor with three years of experience who creates a warm, empathic space for people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, family conflict, grief, low self-esteem, and major life changes. She welcomes work with neurodiverse and neurodivergent clients and brings a calm, respectful presence to sessions where clients can explore difficult feelings at their own pace.

Rachel practices from a client-centered perspective, meeting each person where they are and supporting them to identify and build on their existing strengths. She is comfortable addressing a wide range of concerns including trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, parenting and family problems, career and motivation challenges, anger, and compassion fatigue. Additional areas of focus include attachment and abandonment issues, autism and Asperger syndrome, chronic illness and pain, and communication or commitment difficulties.

Rachel holds the NCPS credential, a professional counselling qualification, and aims to accompany clients as they uncover the underlying patterns contributing to pain or worry. Her approach emphasizes respect for the client as the expert in their own story and a collaborative process that encourages self-discovery and practical coping skills.

Client-Centered Care and Online Accessibility

Rachel practices using a client-centered approach, which focuses on listening deeply, reflecting back what matters to the person, and supporting clients to discover their own solutions. This way of working is helpful for people coping with anxiety, stress, relationship and family difficulties, grief, and self-esteem concerns because it prioritizes the client's perspective and pace.

Because each person’s needs are different, Rachel approaches treatment as a collaborative process. She works with clients to identify what matters most, try out approaches that fit their goals, and adjust the plan over time so the therapy style suits their preferences and circumstances.

Online therapy options - including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging - make it easier to access ongoing support from home or wherever is convenient. These formats offer flexibility in scheduling, allow therapy to continue around work and family commitments, and provide multiple ways to communicate so clients can choose what feels most comfortable for them.
