Therapeutic approaches and online care

Rachel often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which focuses on clarifying values and taking committed steps toward what matters despite difficult thoughts and feelings. This approach can help when people feel stuck or overwhelmed by competing priorities.

She also draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thinking and try concrete behavior changes. CBT is useful for anxiety, mood concerns, and sleep problems because it breaks issues into manageable steps and experiments.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Rachel will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, values, and daily life. She adjusts strategies over time based on what helps most.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video calls allow fuller conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be a good option when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging support shorter check-ins, brief skill practice, or ongoing encouragement between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, errands, or busy schedules while keeping momentum between appointments.
