Why struggle and just survive when you deserve to thrive

"Late into my adulthood, I decided to try therapy to help me deal with the many childhood traumas I've suffered. I didn't want the conventional "tell me how that makes you feel" therapy, so started my search. I found Rachel by chance (or was it), and am so grateful that I had the courage and took the leap to connect and start my sessions with her. I could not ever have imagined that such significant change could be felt and experienced after only 6 sessions. I am able to control my reactions to situations that in the past would trigger me and I feel less underlying anger. Rachel has helped me to reflect on the traumas in my life, and now they seem more like a story that I can see rather than an experience I feel. Rachel has a level of empathy and compassion that was the exact balance I needed to feel free to tell her about my traumas. My responses in situations surprise me beautifully at times, and whilst I still have a long way to go, this significant change makes me want more for this much easier way to live. The name UchangeU is so apt. Rachel helps you, change you."

"Rachel has been my guiding light in a journey marked by darkness. At 22, battling depression and anxiety, I've encountered several mental health professionals, but none like her. Her unique techniques and coaching have been my sanctuary, helping me navigate challenges and heal from deep-seated trauma. The support she provides is more than just professional – it's a lifeline. I feel a profound sense of empowerment through her teachings. To anyone feeling lost and hopeless, Rachel is a beacon of hope. My heart overflows with gratitude for the profound impact she's had on my life. I now carry forward tools to help to support myself and new found self confidence, a gift from Rachel's unwavering support and teachings."

"I have had previous experience in therapy and it never truly worked for me. Since working with Rachel from UchangeU, I have noticed a massive but gradual change in myself. Rachel helps me explore areas of myself I am not use to doing, which has helped me develop higher self-confidence, awareness, understanding, gratefulness and forgiveness. I have actually been getting more out of therapy than I expected and I am planning on continuing my therapy journey with Rachel for as long as possible. There are also options to do face-to-face therapy or over zoom so it makes it super flexible. I have done both, and do not feel like I am missing out on anything in either one."

"Rachel has supported me to recognise patterns of behaviour that were not helping me, in dealing with certain people and situations in my daily life. Thanks to her guidance, I have been able to apply various techniques which over a short time period, have led to positive changes in dealing with these issues. Not only has she opened my eyes in regards to my own patterns of behaviour, but I have also seen how my children have unintentionally modelled some of my behaviours, as I have, from my parents. I used to be manipulated and felt judged by others and now I am learning to value my own view and choose when to take the influence of others. It is exciting to think how my model not only benefits me, but positively impacts my family and friends. Rachel, thank you, so much."

"This is the first time I've finally had the courage to start therapy, and I couldn't have found a better therapist so early on with my enquiry. Rachel provides a really safe and comforting environment. She is incredibly kind, gentle and great in what she does. It can be overwhelming to start looking for a good therapist, but Rachel is certainly worth having a conversation with at the very least. The change comes naturally and you can see the progress after every session. I am very lucky to have met her, and found change in myself through the work she does."

"I have seen a few different psychologists over the last few years and none have ever been as helpful as Rachel! In only a couple of months I have gone from having panic attacks almost daily for the past year to rarely experiencing them. I’m the most positive and happiest I have been in a really long time and would not have been able to get here without Rachel’s help. I cannot recommend Rachel more highly!"

"Highly recommend! I was searching for support through Bark and Rachel was the first person to reach out and talk to me. We immediately connected. I was struggling with a number of experiences and life changes from my early 20s that I never fully dealt with. Rachel worked through it all with me and helped me change the way I think, process thoughts and emotions and stay on a healthy mindset track. I can proudly say that I am a much better person to myself thanks to Rachel's help. Rachel also spends time in these sessions educating you on the conscious and subconscious mind which is so important for understanding yourself and the way you think. Always flexible with my time schedule and was so understanding when circumstances changed. Rachel made it easy to fit sessions in where they suited me best."

"Rachel is amazing at what she practices, she is extremely talented. The techniques she uses are powerful in order to help you overcome your trauma. I can’t thank Rachel enough for helping me heal my anxiety during pregnancy and post natal depression. Highly recommend Rachel of uchangeu. Thank you thank you."

"I did wellness coaching with Rachel via zoom about twelve months ago and I still go back to some of the things I learned. Rachel took the time to listen to me as a person with patience and empathy. I appreciate your help Rachel 🙂 I highly recommend working with Rachel, and it absolutely worth doing something for yourself."

"After going through some significant life changes I couldn't seem to keep myself out of constant negative thought spirals. I have been working with Rachel for a few months now and the difference is amazing. I feel calm now and ready to take on new challenges without the weight of previous experiences clouding my judgement."
