Rachel Kendrick

I currently have availability for phone or online consultation.  face to face appointments will be available from mid - November

I am qualified as a relationally integrative counsellor and psychotherapist with thirty years of experience in education. I work with adults over the age of 18 and my counselling experience includes work with older adults. Always with a non-judgmental approach, I can help you explore and gain insight into your thoughts, feelings and experiences and I will work alongside you to find ways to make changes and help you to gain a sense of balance in life that can make you feel better.

Working relationally means that my relationship with you will be at the heart of our work together. I integrate psychotherapeutic theory so that the therapy I provide is personal and meaningful to you, tailored to your needs.

A person-centred approach forms the basis of my work, guided by your experience and the direction that you take. My knowledge of attachment theory informs how we can think about relationships, in the past, currently and how they may be in the future. I have had training in Transactional Analysis which informs how we can view relationships and our interactions with others and find ways to make change.  

It can take courage to reach out for support, but you will be met by me with empathy and acceptance. My aim is to provide an empathic space where you feel heard and supported and able to express how life feels for you. 

Once you have made contact with me via email or text, we can arrange a convenient time for us to speak for 15 minutes with no charge or obligation on either side. If we feel that working together is going to be the way forward,  we can book our first appointment together. I will send contract details for you to look at. 

Our first session together will be charged at the usual rate. We will have chance for you to ask any questions regarding our contract and for us to check that I have your contact details.
