Hello there!

Looking for a therapist can be daunting but finding the right one is a really important part of the process. So if you've just started or have been looking for sometime, well done so far! 

People call me Rachel or Ray. I am an HCPC registered Psychotherapist and clinical supervisor. I have over ten years of experience working with adults and children. I mostly provide one to one therapy, couples therapy and supervision sessions but I also have experience of setting up, leading and facilitating group work. I am a practicing artist and am trained in Art Psychotherapy but much of my work now is talking therapy. Since the pandemic I have been providing sessions online and over the phone. I am based in Bristol.

I work both short and long term. I work with adults and children, providing a safe space to learn, develop and heal. My areas of speciality include personal growth and transformation, LGBTQ+ issues, help with anxiety, stress and trauma. I am available for daytime and evening sessions. I do not offer weekend sessions.

I offer an initial session at a reduced rate and at this stage you can decide if you would like the work to continue. If I am working with a child I will also meet with their parents/carers before and after the sessions. Together we will decide how many sessions you might like and how often (weekly, monthly etc); if you would prefer to work in person, on the phone or via video. Some people choose to use Art as a way to help express themselves. The non-verbal communication and visual processes within Art Therapy can be very helpful, especially when exploring more complex feelings, but it is not something you have to use.

You can find out a little more about how I work on my website: www.arguiletherapy.com 

Contact me by e-mail at [email protected] with your name, reasons for therapy and your availabilities.

I will get back to you within 24 hours and we can make a plan from there.
