Rachael Coward
I am a qualified psychotherapist based in Newbury, UK, who offers individual therapy sessions both in-person and online. I holds a BSc in Counselling/psychotherapy from the University of Middlesex. I am currently undergoing specialized training in Intensive Short-Term Dynamic Psychotherapy (ISTDP).
My approach is integrative and relational, meaning I tailor my methods to suit each client’s needs. I specialise in working with anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, addiction, emotional neglect and attachment disruptions.
My practice offers a flexible fee structure, including reduced rates for those in financial need.
