Enhance your life with a one-to-one consultation

Description

In your first session with Rachel, you will explore what you would like to change in your life, what your main challenges are, and what some ways forward might be. Rachel will point you towards some initial tasks or resources to get you started on your journey, and discuss how you might work together in the future. 

Although booking a first session might seem daunting, Rachel says "I'm very friendly and warm and people feel relaxed very quickly when they meet me, so I hope you will be brave enough to take that first step towards the life that you want!"

What people have said about Rachel:

“For me, coaching with Rachel has been literally life-changing.  When I first contacted Rachel I only expected to find out if dating was viable for someone as socially anxious as me... What ended up happening transformed not just my beliefs about romantic relationships but about myself, emotions and all my other relationships.  And throughout I have found her to be unceasingly gentle, patient and kind. " (Nick, 29)

“Rachel has helped me work through my anxiety which was making me feel very negative towards dating and causing problems in other areas of my life. She has provided a really useful framework for understanding and dealing with anxiety, with lots of practical strategies and exercises. This is helping me feel stronger and more prepared, ready to face the rollercoaster that is dating with a more relaxed attitude.” (Moira, 35)

"“Rachel is thoughtful, a wonderful listener and a great coach. It was overall a great experience in terms of my personal development – I would definitely recommend Rachel. Thanks, Rachel, for having such a positive impact on my life :)” (Isabel, 49)
