About Rachael

Rachael Bentovim-Gill is an NCPS therapist based in the United Kingdom with four years of professional practice. She has a long background in mental health and education, and brings that experience to work with issues such as trauma and abuse, parenting concerns, mood disorders and ADHD. Rachael lists a range of concerns she supports including stress, anxiety, grief, relationship and intimacy issues, addictions, and caring-related stress.

She draws on several therapeutic approaches in sessions, including cognitive behavioural techniques and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. Sessions are shaped around what each person needs, and she mixes approaches such as attachment-based ideas, client-centred work and elements of dialectical behaviour methods where helpful. The aim is practical – to talk through patterns and find manageable ways to cope and change.

Before private practice Rachael worked for more than 15 years in mental health and education, and she spent many years mentoring and coaching teams at senior level. That background informs her clinical work, especially around professional coaching, parenting and managing workplace stress.

In appointments she focuses on clear discussion about current difficulties, practical strategies and reflective work about relationships and attachment. She also supports people dealing with adoption and foster care issues, abandonment concerns, body image, and chronic illness or pain as part of wider therapy work.

Sessions are conducted in English and Rachael does not accept international clients. Costs vary by location and use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, clients use the See online therapy options button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people focus on values and take small, workable steps towards them while learning to live with difficult thoughts and feelings. It can help with anxiety, low mood and ongoing stress by shifting attention to what matters and building consistent actions.

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early and current relationship patterns affect reactions and closeness with others. It is useful for relationship worries, intimacy-related concerns and parenting issues because it explores how people relate and respond to others.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk through your goals, needs and preferences and agree on which methods to use. That collaborative decision can change over time as priorities and circumstances shift.

The practical advantages of online work include fitting sessions into busy days and reducing travel. Online appointments can make it easier to schedule short check-ins, to choose a quieter time at home or during a work break, or to avoid commuting. The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm the exact options before booking. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt approaches to online sessions so therapy fits into everyday life without asking you to rearrange everything.
