Background and approach
Her earlier roles included clinic and regional leadership, supervision, and community mental health work, which shaped her practical approach to care. Rachel uses client-centered methods to build rapport and tailor sessions to each person’s needs. She also draws on cognitive behavioral strategies to identify unhelpful thinking and learn new coping skills.
Mindfulness practices are woven in to help people reduce reactivity and increase calm. Her work pays attention to cultural context and the effects of trauma. Rachel often helps people dealing with parenting stress, blended family problems, adoption and foster care issues, caregiving overload, and complications around separation or infidelity.
She also supports those facing career doubts, shame or guilt, and feelings of isolation. Sessions are scheduled in the evenings, Central Standard Time, to fit people who need nontraditional hours. Rachel offers several online formats so people can choose what fits their routine and comfort.

04Online support
Approaches that guide online sessions
Client-centered therapy focuses on the person in the room and on building a trusting relationship. It helps people feel heard and guides the pace of work based on what they bring to each session. Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts influence feelings and actions and teaches concrete skills for changing those patterns. It is often useful for anxiety, depression, and stress management.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Rachel will listen to goals, ask about what has and hasn’t helped, and try methods that fit the client's needs and preferences. She adjusts techniques over time so the work stays practical and relevant.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation when that is important. Phone calls can work when bandwidth or camera use is difficult. Live chat and messaging are helpful for brief check-ins, ongoing coaching, or when someone prefers typed communication. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and to keep continuity between sessions.
