About Rachel
Rachel Huyton is a counsellor based in the Midlands with three years' professional practice and a background in mental health service management. She helps people who are feeling stressed, anxious, low in mood, or who are coping with relationship difficulties, grief, trauma or abuse. Rachel aims to create a respectful, sensitive space where a person’s priorities shape the sessions.
She works collaboratively to agree a plan that suits each person’s needs. Sessions are tailored and may include gentle relaxation and meditation techniques when helpful. Rachel describes her approach as flexible and focused on making sessions welcoming and constructive.
Rachel draws on client-centred therapy to follow what matters most to each person and existential therapy to look at meaning, choices and life direction. She says these approaches help with anxiety, depression, relationship questions, and broader life concerns such as purpose or isolation.
Her previous management role in a mental health service complements her counselling work by giving broad exposure to many mental health issues. Rachel encourages open conversation about what a person hopes to achieve and how therapy can fit around everyday life.
Sessions are offered in English from the United Kingdom. Practical arrangements such as days and times are arranged directly with Rachel to find slots that fit a person’s schedule.
How Rachel’s approaches translate to online therapy
Client-centred therapy focuses on the person's own priorities, listening carefully and following what they bring to sessions. This approach helps when someone needs a compassionate space to talk about anxiety, relationship concerns, grief or low mood.Existential therapy looks at life meaning, choices and responsibility, helping people who feel stuck, empty or unsure about future direction. It can be useful for worries about purpose, isolation or the impact of major life changes.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Rachel will discuss goals and personal preferences and then suggest which methods to try. The process is collaborative and can change as needs evolve.
Practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions into busy schedules and avoiding travel time. Online meetings can make it easier to attend from work breaks or when coordinating around caregiving and other commitments.
