Rachel Strange, NCPS

Rachel Strange, NCPS, is a qualified counsellor based in the United Kingdom. The NCPS designation indicates a professional counselling qualification and training. With three years of clinical experience, Rachel supports people navigating stress and anxiety, depression, relationship and family challenges, grief and loss, motivation and self-esteem concerns, and other life changes.

She particularly welcomes neurodiverse and neurodivergent clients and brings a warm, empathic presence to each session. Rachel creates a space where people can explore the issues that have brought them to therapy at a pace that feels comfortable to them. Sessions are collaborative and paced to the individual, with Rachel alongside clients as they identify strengths and examine the patterns that contribute to pain and worry.

Rachel’s practice is rooted in the belief that each person is the expert on their own story and already holds resources that can support change. She aims to help clients uncover those strengths, build confidence, and work through relational, emotional, and practical challenges. Taking the first step can take courage, and Rachel is committed to supporting people through that process with compassion and steady professional care.

Client-Centered Care and Online Access

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on building a respectful, empathetic therapeutic relationship. The therapist offers a non-judgmental, listening-based approach that helps people explore their feelings, clarify what matters to them, and build on their existing strengths. This approach is often helpful for issues such as anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, and self-esteem concerns.

Rachel emphasizes collaboration in therapy - she works together with each person to identify goals and to determine which ways of working feel most helpful. Finding the best therapeutic approach is part of the process, and Rachel will adjust methods based on a client’s needs, goals, and preferences so the work fits the individual.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to access regular support around work and family commitments, reduce travel time, and allow people to connect from familiar environments. For many, remote sessions maintain continuity of care and make it simpler to sustain progress over time.
