Over
Rachael Alder-Byrne is an Art Psychotherapist and EMDR Therapist specialising in Eating Disorders, serving as the Clinical Director at TEDS (The Eating Disorder Specialists). Registered with the HCPC (Health and Care Professions Council) and The British Association of Art Therapists (BAAT), Rachael's journey into mental health care began with a strong interest in art and design, which evolved into a passion for understanding and supporting people.
She pursued a BSc in Psychology, during which she engaged with a mental health charity and provided assistance to families under social services' oversight. Rachael's academic focus on eating disorders continued through her dissertation, leading to her role in a private care home where she first met Clare. Recognising the therapeutic potential of art therapy in creating safe spaces for clients, Rachael furthered her qualifications with an MA in Art Psychotherapy.
Over the course of fourteen years in mental health, with twelve dedicated specifically to eating disorders, Rachael has gained extensive experience. Her professional journey includes providing group and individual art psychotherapy in NHS community mental health services, secure psychiatric units, and hospices supporting adults in palliative care and their families. Rachael expanded her therapeutic toolkit by completing training in Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR), acknowledging its efficacy in trauma treatment.
Driven by a shared vision with Clare, Rachael co-founded TEDS to address gaps in community-based support for individuals navigating complex eating disorders. Their collaborative approach integrates their diverse therapeutic skills to offer compassionate and tailored treatment, enabling clients to embark on recovery journeys while managing everyday life demands. Through TEDS, Rachael and Clare aim to provide accessible and effective care that empowers individuals toward sustained recovery and well-being.
