Rachael Foote, BACP

Rachael Foote is a counsellor with 13 years of experience working across mental health and counselling settings in the United Kingdom. She supports people facing stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, trauma and abuse, eating concerns, and the emotional impact of a cancer diagnosis. She works from the view that each person knows their story best and has strengths to draw on when life feels overwhelming.

Rachael focuses on practical, conversational work. She aims to help people notice what is getting in the way and try small steps that can make daily life easier. Sessions are offered in English and she uses a mix of listening, structured discussion, and goal-focused techniques.

Her approach blends client-centred principles with structured tools. That means the person sets the pace while specific methods are used when helpful. Rachael uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Therapy depending on the issue and the individual’s goals.

She has supported people with a wide range of concerns including grief, relationship and intimacy issues, sleeping problems, parenting stress, ADHD, body image, chronic pain and illness, and substance use. Rachael aims to create a space where practical options can be tried and reviewed together.

People who want to start are invited to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to the therapist’s availability. Fees vary by location and the service uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

How Rachael’s approaches can work online

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and helping people find their own answers. The therapist offers non-judgemental support and follows the person’s lead to build confidence and clarity. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, uses practical exercises and straightforward steps to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviours and is often used for anxiety, depression and sleep problems.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Rachael will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful, then adapt methods over time. The process is collaborative, with regular check-ins to see what is helping and what needs to change.

The original biography did not list specific online session formats, so please confirm the current options before booking. Online work can make therapy fit into a week more easily, for example by avoiding travel, allowing shorter check-ins during a break, or reducing the need to be on camera for every session. Registered or accredited professionals often find digital meetings let people use practical tools together, review exercises and track progress between appointments.
