About Rachel
Rachel Stuart is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) based in Mississippi with ten years of experience. She focuses on practical, action-oriented work to help people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, relationship struggles, and related concerns. Rachel aims to meet people where they are and to tailor therapy to each person's needs and goals.
She trained in psychology and mental health counseling at Mississippi College and brings a human-centered view to sessions.
Background and approach
Rachel rejects one-size-fits-all labels and avoids putting people into narrow categories. Instead she helps clients look at thoughts, feelings, and behaviors that matter right now. Her style mixes structured and exploratory methods.
Sessions may address unhelpful thinking patterns, skills for coping with strong emotions, and steps to rebuild meaning after loss or trauma. Rachel also uses narrative ideas to help people reframe stories they tell about themselves. Rachel has worked in community mental health settings and in programs that supported residents in long-term care.
That background informs her ability to work with complex life transitions and ongoing stressors. She emphasizes clear goals and small, practical steps clients can take between sessions. People come to her for help with parenting stress, family conflict, career concerns, eating issues, bipolar mood challenges, anger, and low self-esteem.
She aims to help people discover strengths and exceptions to their problems so they can move toward the life they want.
How Rachel’s Approaches Translate to Online Therapy
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people clarify what matters to them and take small actions toward those values despite difficult thoughts or feelings. It is useful for anxiety, stress, and when life feels stuck. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and uses practical strategies to change unhelpful patterns. CBT is commonly used for anxiety and depression and for building coping skills. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers tools for managing intense emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness, which can help with anger, relationship stress, and mood instability.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Rachel will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together the therapist and client try methods, see what fits, and adjust the plan over time so work stays practical and relevant.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for deeper conversations and skills work, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or for a shorter check-in, and messages or live chat can support ongoing coaching-style contact between sessions. These options give flexibility for busy schedules and for using different ways of working as needs change.
