Rachael Ingram
Person-centred/humanistic counsellorAbout Me
I understand the daily frustration of living with depression and anxiety. Having had counselling myself, I know how it feels to sit in front of a stranger and talk about my inner most feelings. I'm here to accompany and encourage you on your own personal journey.
I specialise in person-centred counselling which means that during a session, you'll work with me by talking through issues, key events, concerns, behaviours and how you’re feeling...anything that’s bothering you. I immerse myself into your world to understand your perspective. I offer a safe and encouraging environment, one where you aren’t judged, so that you feel accepted and “held”. You’re then able to piece things together that may not have been clear before; acknowledge aspects of your behaviour; work through any hurt and get to a point where you feel capable to move forward and live your life.
As well as the talking aspect, I can also provide practical techniques to support you outside of our sessions.
Alongside private practice, I have also worked with 1Point at St George’s Centre in Bolton for over 2 years, dealing with NHS and self-referrals and supporting people with mental health concerns.
Everybody who comes to counselling has different aims and outcomes that they want to achieve. Regardless of your reasons for seeking counselling, I believe it can enable you to reach your potential; help you to process your experiences and have a healthy mindset and behaviours; help you to fulfil whatever you desire; help you to develop a relationship with yourself; help you be the master in your own life.

If the slots available don't suit you, please don't hesitate to contact me to schedule an appointment that works for you.
I offer an initial 30-minute consultation free of charge.
Sessions are priced at £50.
There is no pressure to commit and I won’t judge the things you tell me.
This free consultation will give you an idea of how we would work together and, ultimately, will help you decide if you are ready to take your therapy and the healing process further with me.
Please note, if you can’t attend either my Manchester or Wigan clinics in person, your consultation can be done via phone or online to ensure that you are comfortable and feel relaxed with the counselling process.
