Inside The Therapy Room

Who is the book for?

Whether you are part of a couple, a therapist, a student, or simply someone curious about how relationships really work, Inside the Therapy Room offers something quietly valuable.For couples, it provides a space to recognise familiar patterns, open up conversations, and gently explore ways of reconnecting. With practical activities included, it can be returned to time and again as a supportive, go-to resource.

For therapists, it offers reassurance and reflection, a reminder that the work we do can be complex, human, and at times isolating. It is a companion piece as much as it is a book, offering insight, perspective, and a sense of shared experience.For students and those with an interest in relationships or therapy, it brings theory to life through real, relatable scenarios that deepen understanding beyond textbooks.And for those who discover it while browsing in a bookshop, a gift shop, or a quiet corner of a garden centre, it is simply a thoughtful, meaningful read. The kind of book people pick up, flick through, and find themselves returning to.

About Rachel

Rachel is a counsellor and hypnotherapist who works with people of all ages from young children to octogenarians.She has worked in counselling on and off for 20 years and as a hypnotherapist for 7 years. Her work is flexible, relational and deeply human, grounded in the belief that therapy does not come in one neat format. Some people need to talk, some need to move, some need to create, and some simply need a safe space to cry or sit quietly. All of it matters.Rachel is multi award-winning and finds real satisfaction in helping people notice the patterns they have picked up along the way, understand why those patterns exist, and decide what they want to do differently so that life can feel lighter and freer.Originally from London, and well travelled, Rachel settled on the Norfolk and Suffolk borders nearly 30 years ago. She is a mother to three grown children and a puppy called Agnes. Her work has continually reinforced her belief that lasting change happens most sustainably when people feel understood, supported and guided with patience and consistency, rather than rushed or judged.
