Rachel Huggett

With a warm, person-centred approach, I work as a Humanistic Integrative counsellor and offer you a welcoming, empathic space where you can explore your thoughts and emotions at your own pace, without judgment or pressure. Whether you are struggling with anxiety, depression, loss, relationship difficulties, trauma, or simply a sense that something in life feels out of balance, I will support you to make sense of your experiences. I respect that every client has different needs and I will work with you as the unique person you are.

Some people come to counselling with clear goals in mind, while others come simply wanting space to explore and reflect. Both are welcome. 

As a certified mindfulness teacher, I will integrate mindfulness based techniques into sessions for those who have an interest. Mindfulness can help bring a sense of grounding and calm to the sessions.

A creative background in the arts, allows me to offer an art-based approach using creative expression to access deeper insight and understanding for those who would like this.

I work with adults of all ages and welcome people from diverse backgrounds.

I offer in-person sessions, online sessions, and walk and talk outdoor therapy. Sessions are generally once a week and are 50 minutes long. The number of sessions depends on  your needs and wants.

The first session is a little different from subsequent sessions with a focus of initially getting to know you and talking about what has brought you to counselling and the current obstacles that you are facing. I will complete an assessment form with you to pinpoint where you are now and what your specific needs are.
