Welcome to Talk 2 Ray
Hello, I’m Rachel Leech (she/her/they/them), a fully qualified counsellor, psychotherapist, and clininal supervisor based in Buxton, Derbyshire with over 20 years experience. I offer a warm, calm, and supportive space where you can feel heard, seen, and understood.
Please feel free to get in touch should you want to discuss the idea of counselling. Whether you choose to work with me, or another practitioner, the most important part of the first step is to find the right counsellor for you and I am happy to help.

About Counselling with Rachel
You might be feeling overwhelmed, stuck, unsure of yourself, or struggling with a specific issue. Whatever you're facing, you're not alone — therapy can help you feel more like you again or perhaps discover a you that you didn't realise was there all along. Find and listen to your own wisdom.
Whether you’re an adult or a young person, I work with care, creativity, and compassion to help you find a way through.
My approach
I’m an integrative, trauma informed, client-led therapist – which means I tailor my approach to suit you. I combine psychodynamic, humanistic, creative and mindfulness-based approaches to support people in a way that’s gentle, respectful, and effective.
Experience
With over 20 years of experience, I’ve worked in schools, hospices, private practice and with community services. In addition to my private practice I’m currently the Service Lead for the Adult and Children’s Counselling and Family Support Service at a local Hospice.
I work with adults, young people, and children, I hold a current enhanced DBS check, BACP Registered Member and works in accordance with the BACP Ethical Framework. Registered with ICO, and fully insured.
You may be feeling overwhelmed or unsure. You're not alone—let's navigate this together!
