How Rachel’s Approaches Work Online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings and still move toward what matters to them. It is useful for anxiety and life changes when avoidance is getting in the way. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thought and behavior and teaches clear strategies to change them, which can help with anxiety, depression, and stress. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person’s own goals and pace, offering a respectful, listening-based space to make sense of concerns.Choosing the right method is a team process. Rachel will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped in the past. Together they will try approaches that fit the client’s needs and adjust the plan over time based on what feels useful.
Online work offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls create a face-to-face feel when deeper conversation is needed. Phone sessions let someone speak without using video and can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging suit brief check-ins, coaching-style support, or ongoing reminders and practice between sessions. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life while still using ACT, CBT, and client-centered techniques.
