My Psychotherapy practice is called Rachael Turner Therapy, which you might have seen on Facebook and Instagram.  Fundamentally I am an International Accredited Psychotherapist with 25 years experience.  I am a fully qualified EMDR Practitioner since 2015 and also take referrals for this specific treatment.  I am trained in LMV (Life Minus Violence) which is a cognitive behavioural therapeutic package designed to reduce risk of aggression amongst forensic populations.

I am a service provider for Social Services, Post Adoption, Residential Care Homes and LCC Schools.

My approach to our therapy sessions, is based on reason for referral. Every client is individual and sessions are tailor made with this in mind.

EMDR sessions are 1 hour and charged at £100.

All other therapies I offer, including Psychotherapy are 50 minutes and charged at £75.

Costings for Statutory referrals including Social Care:-

All other therapies are 50 minute appointments and charged at £130.

I offer face to face appointments aswell as online. Appointments are 1 hour for EMDR and 50 minutes for all other therapies.

Confidentiality is a fundamental part of our therapeutic relationship and my approach is non-judgemental and client-focused.

Since 2000, I have had experience of offering one to one support to very young children, young people, adults, couples and families.

I also work within schools and clinical settings and am a provider for Lancashire social care and adoption support. 

Until 2021, I was employed by a local company called CCATS and within my role there I worked with HSB clients and children with acute behavioural needs.  I have experience of court work and producing reports; designing and delivering emotional regulation courses for EBD schools and I co-delivered parenting classes earlier in my career.  I worked for CCATS for 16 years.

I opened my own private practice in June 2021 and my clinic is based in Thornton.

I am qualified to degree level, have indemnity insurance, regular supervision, an up to date DBS certificate and most importantly, a kind heart.

Prior to our first session, if desired, I offer a 10 minute phone call to discuss reason for referral and to introduce myself.
