About Rachael
Rachael Davies is a counsellor, coach and clinical hypnotherapist with eight years’ experience helping people who feel worn out by anxiety, grief or past hurt. She listens closely and uses practical tools to help clients feel steadier in their bodies and clearer about next steps. Rachael offers a calm, respectful approach and works at a pace people can manage.
Her work often focuses on trauma and loss, including the effects of domestic or sexual violence and other painful experiences that linger.
Background and approach
She also helps with depression, bipolar mood difficulties, sleep problems, and the overwhelm that comes from long-term stress. Rachael supports people who struggle with obsessive thoughts, panic, phobias, and compulsive behaviours. She blends several approaches so the work fits the person in front of her.
That can mean gentle psychodynamic exploration to trace where patterns began, or cognitive behavioural techniques to change unhelpful thought loops. Hypnotherapy and solution-focused tools are used when they suit the client’s goals. Rachael is aware of neurodivergence and adapts sessions for autistic adults and people with ADHD.
She can also help with attachment issues, relationship strain, guilt or shame, and recovering a sense of safety after trauma. Her role is to listen, ask clear questions, and help clients choose the steps that feel most useful. Sessions are delivered from the United Kingdom in English.
The focus is on steady, manageable progress rather than quick fixes. Rachael aims to create a space where people can make sense of their past and build ways to cope in the present.

Online support
Therapeutic approaches and online support
Rachael commonly uses hypnotherapy to help people connect with deeper relaxation and change patterns that feel stuck. Hypnotherapy may be chosen alongside talking therapies to support calm and focused work on habits or memories.She also draws on client-centred therapy, which centres the person’s experience and priorities. This approach gives space for people to be heard and to set the pace. Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, is used to identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behaviour patterns, which can be useful for anxiety, panic and mood problems.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Rachael works collaboratively to decide what to try first, and adapts the plan as goals and needs become clearer. She discusses options and helps clients choose techniques that fit their preferences and circumstances.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility for different lives. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can be easier when internet bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text messaging suit quick check-ins or reflective exchanges. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family or mobility constraints while still working with a registered or accredited professional.
