How Rachel’s approaches work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, low mood and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy focuses on spotting patterns of thinking and behaviour, then testing small changes to reduce symptoms such as panic, insomnia or low mood. Both approaches are practical and problem-focused, giving clear exercises to try between sessions. Finding the right approach is part of the work. Rachel will talk with each person about their needs and goals, and together they decide which methods to use. This process is collaborative and can change as therapy progresses to make sure the work stays relevant. Online therapy offers flexibility for different lifestyles. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, while phone sessions can fit into a short break or be a simpler option when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging make regular check-ins and brief coaching easier between longer sessions. These options let people maintain continuity of care whether they are local or international, and make it simpler to fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments.Frequently asked
