About Rachel

Rachel Lockwood offers a client-focused, integrative approach to counselling that encourages people to move at their own pace and lead the work. She sees individuals aged 12 and over as well as couples aged 18 and over, creating a non-judgemental therapeutic relationship where clients are invited to be themselves and speak about things that may have felt unspoken.

Working across a range of settings, Rachel draws on several counselling models to tailor support to each person. Her practice has included systemic and psychodynamic perspectives alongside cognitive behavioural techniques, solution-focused strategies, narrative methods and psychosexual therapy. This flexible way of working means she can respond to issues such as anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, bereavement and sexual dysfunction with approaches chosen to suit the client.

Known for a genuine, empathic and understanding manner, Rachel values the opportunity to be part of another person’s therapeutic journey. She believes the process is unique for each client and aims to build a connection that supports meaningful change. Rachel holds the BACP credential, indicating membership of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy.

Approaches Rachel Uses for Online Therapy

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns formed early in relationships and how they influence current connections - it can help with issues around trust, abandonment and intimacy by exploring relational needs and emotional responses. Client-Centered Therapy places the client at the heart of sessions, offering a supportive, non-directed environment where the therapist follows the client’s lead to build self-awareness and self-esteem. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviours and developing practical strategies to manage symptoms - it is often used for anxiety, depression and stress-related problems.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Rachel works collaboratively with each person to decide which methods fit best with their goals, needs and preferences, and may integrate elements from different models as the work progresses.

Online therapy with Rachel is delivered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for people with busy lives or those living at a distance. These options make it easier to attend regular sessions, maintain continuity of care with registered professionals and access support in a way that suits individual routines and comfort levels.
