About Rachael
Rachael Moss helps people with stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem and depression using a pluralistic counselling approach. She works mainly from a person-centred place and chooses other methods as useful for each person. Rachael is a member of NCPS and has three years' experience as a counsellor in the United Kingdom.
Her sessions start by listening to what matters most to the client. She focuses on clear conversation about concerns such as compassion fatigue, social anxiety, or feelings of isolation. Practical steps are discussed alongside reflection on past patterns and relationships that might be affecting current wellbeing.
Rachael uses client-centred methods alongside cognitive behavioural techniques when helpful. She also draws on psychodynamic ideas and solution-focused work depending on the issue and the client's preferences. This mix aims to address both immediate problems and longer-term patterns.
People often bring grief, questions of life purpose, or challenges around pregnancy and childbirth. Rachael will talk through feelings such as guilt, shame or difficulty with forgiveness and support developing self-love and stronger self-motivation. Sessions are conversational and aim to make complex feelings clearer.
Practical matters such as what to expect in a first session and how counselling will fit into everyday life are discussed at the outset. Rachael encourages clients to set goals and reviews progress together so the work stays relevant to their aims.
How Rachael uses different approaches in online sessions
Rachael commonly draws on client-centred therapy and cognitive behavioural therapy in her work. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening and helping people express what matters to them, which can be useful for grief, life purpose questions and low self-esteem. Cognitive behavioural therapy looks at thoughts and behaviours and offers practical strategies for stress, anxiety and depression.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The counsellor and client will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, and then decide which methods to use in sessions. That collaborative decision can change over time as needs shift.
Confirm the specific session formats before booking since the biography does not list them. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time and offer quicker access at short notice. It can also allow for shorter check-ins or audio-only conversations if someone prefers not to be on camera, helping sessions fit into everyday life without needing to rearrange large parts of the day.
Sessions take place through BetterHelp by video, phone or messaging. We will earn a commission if you sign up.
