Rachael Cretney

Hello and thank you for reading my profile. I am a BACP Accredited counsellor with over 25 years experience. I offer counselling and EMDR, working both online and face-to-face in Plymouth.

I am passionate about the potential benefits of therapy and would be very happy to explore this with you. I am a committed professional with an informal, approachable style.

I have experience of working with people with a broad range of issues. I am continually enriching my offer through ongoing professional development.  I have a particular interest in working with trauma.

With a keen interest in equality and diversity issues, I have worked effectively with a diverse range of clients from a variety of backgrounds, differing in age, first language, ethnicity, culture, nationality and sexuality. 

I recognise that deciding to engage in counselling can be a very important and sometimes difficult step. And then, choosing a counsellor can be quite a task! You may need to meet someone to know if they are the right counsellor for you. If it helps, client feedback suggests people find me approachable and appreciate my warm manner (see website for testimonials). In addition to being a practitioner, I have managed counselling services in the region, including Plymouth University. 

Further information is available on my website. Please feel free to contact me if you have any further questions. Many thanks.

All sessions, including the initial meeting, are charged at the agreed rate and are for 60 minutes.
