What type of counselling services do you offer?

At my practice, I offer lots of different types of counselling services – from individual sessions to group therapy. It all depends on what each client needs and what they’ll benefit from. Because a lot of my clients lead busy lives, I also offer online and telephone counselling if that suits their schedule better. Although I always suggest coming in for a face-to-face session now and then, as these are often very helpful.

What qualifications do you have?

To be a certified counsellor, you need to have a Level 4 qualification in counselling. This can be as a diploma, or at a degree or postgraduate level. I chose to go down the university route by undertaking a BSc Hons in Psychology & Counselling. This meant that I got a degree and was accredited by the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). I am now a registered counsellor with over 10 years of experience and have completed a number of Continuing Professional Development (CPD) modules.

What is the main reason your clients come to you?

Most of my clients have certain goals in mind when it comes to their therapy. Often they want to resolve issues which are causing difficulties in their lives. This may be problems in their personal relationships that they want help working through. It could be with their partner, family, friends, or work colleagues. Or they may want to develop coping mechanisms to help deal with their own mental health. But often these can interlink. For example, if a client is wanting help with their personal relationships, this often has a positive knock-on effect on their own mental health.

Late into my adulthood, I decided to try therapy to help me deal with the many childhood traumas I've suffered. I didn't want the conventional "tell me how that makes you feel" therapy, so started my search. I found Rachel by chance (or was it), and am so grateful that I had the courage and took the leap to connect and start my sessions with her. I could not ever have imagined that such significant change could be felt and experienced after only 6 sessions. I am able to control my reactions to situations that in the past would trigger me and I feel less underlying anger. Rachel has helped me to reflect on the traumas in my life, and now they seem more like a story that I can see rather than an experience I feel. Rachel has a level of empathy and compassion that was the exact balance I needed to feel free to tell her about my traumas. My responses in situations surprise me beautifully at times, and whilst I still have a long way to go, this significant change makes me want more for this much easier way to live. The name UchangeU is so apt. Rachel helps you, change you.

Jo has a lovely warm and open manner. I found her to be an incredibly experienced practitioner. I felt very welcome and supported and really heard. I found the EMDR sessions with Jo to be just such effective, efficient and absolutely life changing therapy. I highly recommend Jo to anyone wanting to make positive changes in their life
