Hi, I'm Rachael and I would love to work with you to help you figure things out. It can feel overwhelming knowing where to start!
Life can be hard and it can be hard knowing where to turn for help! Especially if you don't know what is wrong.
Often, we are going through the motions trying to survive another day and it's only when something happens that makes us stop and think that we realise it's not "normal". But what is normal? It can look so different to many people so why don't we work together to figure out what's normal for you?
I have several years of experience and have worked with two mental health charities. Through my roles, I have experience helping people work with a broad range of complex mental health issues such as PTSD, trauma, suicidal thoughts, self harm, abuse, bereavement, anxiety, depression and issues of low self esteem.
I know everyone is not the same and what works for one might not work for others which is why I don't offer advice but work with you to enable you to find the answers and solutions. You know yourself best!

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.
- Convenient.
- Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
- Available now.
- There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.
Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
