01About Rachel
Rachel Sirek is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) based in Colorado who focuses on helping adults understand emotions, relationships, and recurring life patterns. She speaks plainly about neurodivergence and how different brains work, including ADHD and autism. Rachel emphasizes reducing self-criticism and finding strategies that fit how a person actually operates.
She uses practical methods to address anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and trouble with emotional regulation. Many people come to her feeling stuck or overwhelmed by old habits, and she offers straightforward tools to try between sessions.
Background and approach
Rachel also supports people exploring their identity and executive functioning when neurodivergence is part of the picture. Her clinical experience includes outpatient care and crisis settings. Those roles shaped her emphasis on curiosity, calm problem solving, and meeting people where they are.
She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and related approaches, adapting them to each person's needs. Rachel aims for collaboration in sessions. She listens for what’s working and what isn’t, then experiments with small changes and coping skills.
That steady, step-by-step work is meant to build confidence and reduce overwhelm. People describe her style as direct and compassionate, focused on practical progress. She helps people find clearer routines, manage strong emotions, and connect actions to their goals.
Sessions are intended to be a place for honest conversation and real problem solving.

04Online support
Therapeutic approaches applied to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice thoughts without getting stuck in them and choose actions that match their values. It is useful for anxiety, feeling disconnected from goals, and decisions about how to live day to day. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like panic, low mood, and worry. It gives clear steps and exercises to practice between sessions. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal skills that help when feelings feel overwhelming or relationships are tense.Rachel treats finding the right approach as a team effort. She listens to what matters most, tries techniques together, and adjusts plans based on what helps. Clients and therapist check in regularly to pick strategies that fit a person’s routine, strengths, and goals.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let people have real-time conversations and use screen-sharing for worksheets. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is low or for shorter check-ins. Live chat and text-based messaging allow ongoing support between sessions and work well for quick skill reminders or when writing feels easier than speaking. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into busy lives and keep progress moving forward.
