Rachael Oliver, BACP

Rachael Oliver helps people who are struggling with relationships, grief, low self-esteem and major life changes. She keeps sessions straightforward and warm so people can talk honestly about what matters to them. Rachael presents as calm and steady, aiming to help clients feel heard and understood.

She uses a client-centred approach, which means she follows the person’s lead and focuses on their experience. That style is often helpful for people facing loss, relationship strain, or big transitions. Rachael listens closely and reflects back what she hears to help clients make sense of difficult feelings.

Rachael has five years of professional experience and works in line with BACP standards. She continues her learning through regular professional development and attends ongoing supervision to check her practice. This helps her keep improving how she works with people.

Her experience covers bereavement, anxiety and depression, trauma, loneliness and relationship difficulties. She also supports people with issues tied to pregnancy and fertility, including birth trauma and miscarriage. Rachael can help clients talk through coping strategies and next steps when life feels overwhelming.

Sessions are offered in English and Rachael accepts international clients. To begin people complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to the therapist’s availability. The site uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

Client-centred work and online sessions

Client-centred therapy focuses on the person rather than on labels. The therapist listens without judgement and reflects what the client says. This approach helps people feel understood and can be useful for grief, relationship issues and low self-esteem.

Rachael emphasises a collaborative process when working online. She will discuss what matters to the client, try different ways of working, and agree a plan together. Finding the right approach is part of the work and is decided together based on needs, goals and preferences.

Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions around daily life and reducing travel time. Online work can make it easier to have shorter check-ins when schedules are tight or to join from a different location if necessary. The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm current options with the provider before booking.
