Approaches like EMDR and Person-Centered Therapy for Online Support



Rachel offers EMDR as a targeted approach for processing traumatic memories; in practice this involves guided attention and structured interventions that can reduce the intensity of distressing recollections and related symptoms. EMDR is often recommended for people who carry clear memories of traumatic events and want a therapy focused on processing those experiences.

She also works in a client-centered way, prioritising the person’s own perspective and pacing. This approach emphasises empathy, active listening, and collaboration so that goals and techniques are shaped around what the client finds most helpful. It is useful for a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, relationship difficulties, and life transitions.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process; Rachel collaborates with each person to identify which methods suit their needs, goals, and preferences, and adapts her practice over time as progress unfolds.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for people with busy schedules or limited local services. These formats make it easier to fit therapy into everyday life, reduce travel time, and maintain continuity of care when circumstances change, while still allowing meaningful work with registered professionals and therapists.
