Background and approach

In sessions she draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, cognitive behavioral techniques, mindfulness, and client-centered listening. She helps people notice what matters to them, test small behavior changes, and build habits that match their values. Motivational interviewing is used when someone wants clearer direction on next steps.

Rachel has worked in settings that included teaching and supervision in social work, and she brings that experience into sessions as practical guidance. She aims to create a respectful, non-judgmental space where someone can try new strategies and track progress. People who reach out can expect straightforward language and collaborative planning.

Rachel focuses on what can change now, with step-by-step strategies for coping with life changes and improving day-to-day functioning.

Approaches that translate well to online therapy

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify their values and take small actions toward them, even when anxiety or difficult thoughts are present. It focuses on what matters most and building a life that reflects those priorities. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy breaks down unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns into specific skills to practice. It is often used for anxiety, sleep problems, and mood symptoms because it gives clear, doable exercises.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they will try techniques, check what fits, and adjust the plan as needs change.

Online sessions via video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video calls work well for full conversations and guided exercises. Phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text are useful for brief updates, between-session coaching, or when someone prefers not to be on camera. These options give flexibility while using ACT and CBT tools in everyday settings.
