Therapeutic Approaches and Online Options
Rachel integrates client-centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), and mindfulness techniques into online work to address a range of concerns. Client-centered therapy focuses on building a trusting relationship and responding to each person with empathy and respect - it is often helpful for people coping with life transitions, relationship challenges, or questions about identity. CBT offers practical tools to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns. Mindfulness therapy teaches present-moment awareness and simple attention skills that can reduce reactivity and support emotional regulation, which is useful for trauma-related symptoms and chronic stress.Finding the best approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Rachel collaborates with each person to determine what methods align with their needs, goals, and preferences. Together they explore which strategies feel most helpful and adjust the plan as progress unfolds.
Online therapy provides flexibility in how and when care happens. Rachel offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to accommodate different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to access licensed professionals and therapists from home, work, or other settings while maintaining consistent, ongoing support.
