Approaches That Guide Remote Sessions

Rachel Andrews draws on Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to support people in online sessions. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a compassionate, non-judgemental space where the person’s own goals and insights are central - this approach helps with relationship issues, self-esteem difficulties, and situations where building trust is key. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers structured techniques to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can be effective for anxiety, depression, stress, and many practical coping challenges.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey, and Rachel works collaboratively to tailor methods to each person’s needs, goals, and preferences. She partners with clients to assess what feels most helpful and adjusts the focus over time so the work stays relevant and effective.

Online therapy with Rachel can take place via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access consistent support from wherever someone is located and allow therapy to fit into busy or changing lives.
