Evidence-based approaches and online access
Rachel often draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to help people identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and ADHD-related struggles. She also uses trauma-informed cognitive behavioral strategies to address the effects of past trauma and to build coping skills for difficult memories and reactions.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Rachel collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. Together they try approaches, review what helps, and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to provide flexibility. Video works well for deeper conversations and visual cues, phone sessions can fit a break at work or low-bandwidth situations, live chat is useful for brief check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to keep momentum between meetings.
