What Is Therapy?
Guiding You On the Path of Self-Empowerment
If you have found yourself here, you are more than likely going through a difficult period in your life and looking to seek some support. Entering in to therapy can seem like a daunting experience but it does not have to be.
How to know if therapy is right for you?
Sometimes in life we experience a multitude of difficulties and can find ourselves feeling isolated and alone. Therapy offers a non-judgemental environment where you can explore and work through these difficulties in a confidential setting that is founded by a warm, compassionate and empathic approach.
Whatever your end goal for therapy may be, with the use of various psychotherapy methods, we can work together to becoming a more empowered you!
Let me introduce myself...

Firstly, thank you for taking the time to explore my website. My name is Rachael and I am a psychotherapist in the Basildon, Essex area.
My aim as a therapist:
I am a believer that the therapeutic relationship can be one of the most intimate relationships that one can have; with this in mind I would like to share a little about me before you decide to embark on your journey with me.
I knew I wanted to get into a career path that would make a difference in people’s lives from a very young age. This interest led me to study a BA in Counselling & Psychotherapy which resulted in obtaining a job working with bereaved children.
I hold a passion for walking alongside my clients in their time of despair and work diligently to help them find the answers they seek. Since 2019, I have worked with a variety of clientele from adults to adolescents within a secondary school.
How I work:
I am what you call a Humanistic therapist, therefore I am not here to advise you or tell you what to do; you have the answers and I'll walk alongside you until those answers become a little clearer.
I love to work creatively, using a variety of interventions and tools. However, if creative therapy is not for you we can tailor the sessions to fit your specific needs.
