About Rachael

Rachael Davies is a counsellor, coach and clinical hypnotherapist who focuses on trauma and loss. She has eight years of experience helping people who feel worn down by anxiety, old survival habits, or memories that won’t let go. Rachael aims to help people feel calmer in their bodies and more confident in their own judgement.

Rachael works in a straightforward, compassionate way. Sessions may include talking, practical tools to ease nervous system symptoms, and gentle work with difficult memories at a pace that suits the person.

Background and approach

She adapts the approach to each person rather than using a single method for everyone. Her background includes training in trauma-focused therapy, which she blends with other approaches to meet individual needs. She often uses elements of cognitive behavioural therapy to spot and shift unhelpful thought patterns.

Psychodynamic ideas may be used to look at where long-standing patterns began and how they keep showing up now. Rachael also offers clinical hypnotherapy and draws on solution-focused techniques to help people make practical changes. She is mindful of neurodivergent experiences and adapts sessions for autistic adults and people with ADHD.

People often come to Rachael for help with anxiety, stress, grief, low self-esteem, relationship and family difficulties, sleep problems, bipolar and depressive states, or the aftermath of abuse. She works with the emotional and practical sides of these concerns to help people move forward. Sessions are conducted in English and Rachael practises from the United Kingdom.

She describes her role as listening deeply, asking thoughtful questions, and supporting each person’s next steps.

How Rachael’s approaches translate into online therapy

Trauma-focused therapy helps people work through the lasting effects of traumatic events. It commonly uses careful pacing and grounding tools to reduce distress when memories are explored, which can make difficult material more manageable online or in person.

Client-centred therapy is based on listening and creating a non-judgemental space. The therapist follows the person’s concerns and helps them find their own solutions, which can suit conversational formats like phone or video sessions.

Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, focuses on spotting unhelpful thinking and changing behaviours that keep problems going. It often includes practical homework and short skill-building exercises that transfer well to online work.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the person about their goals, preferences and what feels most useful, and then try methods that fit those needs. That collaborative process means the plan can change as progress is made.

Online sessions offer practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face contact and visual cues, while phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a busy day. Live chat and text-based messaging provide shorter check-ins, written reflections and ongoing support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to continue therapy around work, caring duties and travel while using the approaches described above.
