Therapeutic Approaches and Flexible Online Care
Rachel uses several focused approaches to guide online sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thought patterns and develop practical skills to manage anxiety, stress, and mood-related concerns by focusing on the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative, goal-oriented style that supports a person’s own motivation to change, often useful for addressing ambivalence around parenting choices, career shifts, or lifestyle adjustments. Solution-Focused Therapy emphasizes practical steps and strengths, helping clients set achievable goals and build on what is already working in their lives.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey, and Rachel works collaboratively to determine which methods fit a client’s needs, goals, and preferences. She tailors techniques and pacing so therapy feels relevant and manageable for each person.
Online sessions offer practical benefits including greater scheduling flexibility and easier access from home or other locations. Clients can choose video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to match their comfort and communication style, making it simpler to maintain consistent care alongside work, family, and other responsibilities.
