She brings eight years of counseling experience to sessions and focuses on practical, real-world work that helps people make changes. She aims to create a calm, respectful space where clients can talk through difficult feelings and take steps forward.
Her work centers on addictions, trauma and abuse, and eating and body-image concerns, along with depression, anxiety, stress, and self-esteem struggles.

She also helps people dealing with relationship and intimacy-related issues, anger, bipolar concerns, and coping with life changes. Additional areas she addresses include abandonment and attachment issues, blended family challenges, and family of origin problems. Rachel uses several approaches to tailor care to each person.
She draws on client-centered methods to focus on each person’s priorities, cognitive behavioral techniques to identify unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns, and EMDR for trauma-related work when it fits. She also integrates Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills and motivational interviewing to support coping and change. Sessions are offered in English and Rachel works with international clients as well.
She provides a mix of video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to suit different needs. Pricing varies with location and uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

Online support
How Rachel’s Approaches Work Online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person’s goals and priorities. The therapist listens closely and shapes sessions around what the client needs most, which helps build trust and clarity about next steps.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at links between thoughts, feelings, and actions. In online sessions this often means identifying unhelpful thinking, trying small experiments, and practicing new behaviors between meetings to reduce anxiety or depression.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, EMDR, is used for trauma-related symptoms when appropriate. It involves guided attention and processing to reduce the impact of distressing memories and can be adapted to video sessions when clinically suitable.
Finding the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will talk with each person about their history, goals, and what feels manageable. Together they choose which methods to try first and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to stay in contact. Video calls allow face-to-face conversations and deeper work, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat supports quick check-ins, and text messaging helps with brief updates or practice between sessions. These options make it easier to fit counseling into a busy life and to use approaches like CBT and skills coaching consistently.
