The Therapy Shed
The Therapy Shed is based in Doncaster, South Yorkshire and offers both Counselling and Solution Focused Hypnotherapy. Our aim is to make your mental health our priority. Mental health problems affect one in four of us, yet too often people feel too ashamed or scared to reach out for help or support, leading to people feeling alone or isolated and struggling to make sense of how they are feeling.

With the stresses and strains that modern-day life puts on us, sometimes we can start to feel overwhelmed and less in control of our lives. We can easily become trapped in those cycles of negative thinking or unhelpful behaviours and feeling like we have lost our mojo or the passion for life we once had.

My name is Rachel Hudson and I am a counsellor and clinical hypnotherapist in Doncaster and I help people overcome anxiety, depression, OCD, build confidence and self-esteem, improve relationships and more. My name is Rachel Hudson and I am an Integrative Counsellor and Clinical Hypnotherapist and Psychotherapist based in Doncaster, South Yorkshire.
If you're struggling with anxiety, depression, an eating disorder, OCD or having problems in your relationship then counselling can give you a safe space to explore your thoughts and feelings in a way that might not be possible with friends or family. Many reasons can bring us to therapy, whether they are lifetime struggles or temporary difficulties.
Solution-focused hypnotherapy can help you overcome anxiety, depression, stress, insomnia, build confidence and self-esteem, help with weight loss, pain management and even perfect your sports performance. Solution Focused Hypnotherapy allows clients to make positive changes in their lives without having to unpick the past.
In the first session, I will explain a little about how I work and explain the limits of confidentiality. Then allowing you to tell me a bit about why you have come to counselling. I understand the decision to reach out and seek counselling can be scary so if you have any questions please feel free to contact me and from there we can talk about arranging an appointment.
Here at The Therapy Shed, we work with lots of clients who have struggled with anxiety, depression, eating disorders, OCD and had difficulties in their relationships, here's what they've said about their experience with counselling or hypnotherapy with me. Rachel really helped me to find my way when I was lost.

Really can't put into words how much these sessions really helped me. Had NHS counselling several times in the past. But what a truly complete different experience I had. Really felt listened to and never judged. I was able to open up and talk about things I have never spoke about before. I always came out of the shed felling my shoulders were lighter, maybe with a tear in my eye, but very relieved to be reassured that it was OK to feel how I do sometimes but it's how you move forward. Definitely highly recommended, great experience.

When I first visited Rachel, I had been left with little hope from previous therapists. Rachel listened, cared and adapted her approach to best help me. She has completely turned my mindset and views on life around. She gave me the hope I had lost and I will forever be grateful. Amazing lady and I cannot recommend her enough! Wish I had would have found her sooner!

Over the past 20 years or so, I have seen many counsellors who never really "got me or my problems". I was told by one to wear lipstick to make me feel better and many other equally ridiculous suggestions. I ended up telling them what they wanted to hear so that I didn't have to keep going.
My son recommended Rachel & he was so convinced that I would get on with her, that he even offered to pay for the sessions himself. Given that he is single & saving for a house I knew that she must be good so agreed to give it a final try. (I didn't let him pay),
I am so glad that I did. Rachel made me face

I cannot recommend Rachel and her counseling enough, I have learnt how to better manage my intrusive thoughts and anxiety and am in a much better place than I was when I first went just a few weeks ago. She is so easy to talk to, very knowledgeable and I am beyond grateful to have come across her website when I needed it most. Opening up and talking is difficult for me but she cracked me like a nut and, I found it hard to stop! Rachel makes it such a positive experience and is so warm and welcoming. I would recommend to anyone and, if I could, I'd be there every single week going forward!

Couldn’t recommend enough! Felt comfortable from the moment I walked in for the first session and walked out of the last in a much better place. So understanding and provided a completely different insight to everything. Plenty to take away from every session!

I would highly recommend the therapy shed.Rachel is a lovely kind caring lady who made both myself and my son feel at ease from the moment we walked through the door. I can’t thank Rachel enough for her help with my teenage son. He was struggling with lots changes to his normal routine due to COVID . I didn’t want to take him to the Gps and have him “labelled” so thought I would seek help myself.
Rachel has worked with him every week doing hypnotherapy. she has helped him to understand how his brain works, how to refocus and how to change the habits that he had been struggling with.

I cannot speak highly enough of Rachael. I have worked through my anxiety issues with her and found her to be not only very professional and knowledgeable, but also a lovely kind person, a very good listener and totally non judgmental.
If you have issues I would thoroughly recommend Rachael to help

I would highly recommend The Therapy Shed. Rachel was so understanding and so informative throughout. A trusting and relaxed environment was created straight away which made it so much easier to explore how I was feeling. I came out so much more positive and it was very beneficial.
