About Rachel
In session Rachel listens for what matters most to the client and builds simple, useful plans from there. She draws on approaches that help people rethink unhelpful patterns and practice different ways of coping. Rachel helps people untangle codependency, manage compassion fatigue, and process grief around separation or divorce.
Her approach includes attention to how the body holds stress as well as the stories people tell about themselves. That combination can help when anxiety, post-traumatic stress, or repetitive conflict keeps coming up. Sessions move at a pace the client is comfortable with and aim for concrete tools to use between meetings.
Rachel works with issues like communication problems, shame and guilt, social anxiety, and questions of sexuality and life purpose. She also supports people processing narcissistic behavior in relationships and the aftermath of trauma. If you want straightforward support and practical steps, she helps you map a path forward.

Therapeutic approaches you can use online
Rachel uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT is practical and goal-focused, which can be useful for depression, social anxiety, and communication problems.She also uses Narrative Therapy to help people reframe the stories they tell about themselves and their relationships. This approach can be helpful when old patterns or identity stories keep getting in the way of change.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped in the past. Then they choose or combine approaches in a collaborative way so the plan fits the client’s needs.
