Rachel Lockwood, BACP

Rachel often uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. This approach can help people understand trust, closeness and repeated relationship reactions. Client-Centred Therapy is also central to her work and focuses on listening closely, reflecting what you say and letting you guide the pace of sessions. It suits people who need a compassionate space to make sense of feelings. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, is used to identify unhelpful thinking and build practical steps to change behaviours, which can help with anxiety, low mood and sleep problems.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Rachel will talk with you about what you want to achieve and which methods fit your goals and preferences. Together you can try an approach and adjust it as progress and needs change.

Online therapy offers flexibility for busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that feels important. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier to fit into a break. Live chat and text messaging suit shorter check-ins or moments when writing feels easier than speaking. These options help people access therapy without relocating or rearranging their schedules.
