Psychotherapy in Stockport & Heaton Moor

I’m Rachel Watkins, a psychotherapist, offering warm, confidential therapy in Stockport, Heaton Moor, and online. I know that reaching out for help can be difficult especially when our confidence is low and we don’t feel ourselves. Most of us will struggle at various points in our lives. Increased awareness of mental health is helping us recognise how important it is to take time for ourselves, to put our oxygen mask on first, so that we can really get the most out of this one precious life.

You might not know exactly what is wrong or what you want to change but are living with the awareness that things just aren't right. You might feel anxiety, shame, numbness, anger, loss. These feelings are present for a reason and have protected you well in the past but perhaps are not working here and now in your life. They might be affecting your relationships, work, physical health and your sense of who you are.

Talking is helpful, but it's hard to do sometimes with those closest to us for fear of judgement or not being taken seriously or feeling like we are burdening.

I offer a safe and confidential space for us to explore together what's holding you back; supporting you to move towards the life you want.
