About Rachael

Practical approaches you can use online
Rachael often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT helps people spot patterns that lead to anxiety or low mood and then practices new ways of thinking and acting to feel better.She also incorporates Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication. DBT skills are useful for managing intense feelings, coping with parenting stress, and handling conflict without escalation.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. She will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, then adapt methods as needed. The process is collaborative and paced to what the person can handle between sessions.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video works well for therapy that benefits from face-to-face interaction, while phone sessions can fit into a short break at work or require less bandwidth. Live chat and text messaging are useful for brief check-ins, skills practice, or ongoing support between scheduled meetings. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy parenting life and to continue skill-building even when schedules change.
