About Rachel
Rachel Krueger is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 11 years of clinical experience. She offers a calm, down-to-earth approach for people coping with stress, anxiety, depression, and life changes. Rachel focuses on practical steps parents can use while juggling everyday demands and parenting concerns.
She creates a nonjudgmental space where clients talk about what matters most to them. Sessions emphasize understanding everyday patterns and building concrete skills. Rachel blends listening with hands-on strategies so people leave with tools they can try between sessions.
Background and approach
Her work often centers on family and parenting topics such as blended family adjustments, communication problems, and family of origin issues. She also supports people facing mood disorders, seasonal affective disorder, and challenges tied to life purpose or midlife transitions. Rachel pays attention to how roles and routines affect mood and functioning.
Rachel uses familiar, evidence-informed approaches including Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Motivational Interviewing, and Solution-Focused Therapy. She adapts methods to match each person’s needs and comfort level rather than following a single script. Sessions are offered in English and are provided from Michigan.
Rachel aims to help people feel steadier and more able to handle daily responsibilities, with an emphasis on skills that make family life more manageable.

Approaches that guide online care
Rachel commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy in her online work. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety and depressive symptoms. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person’s own goals and experience, with the therapist offering empathy and reflective listening to help people find their own solutions.She also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills when emotion regulation and distress tolerance are needed. DBT skills teach practical ways to manage intense emotions, improve interpersonal effectiveness, and reduce impulsive reactions.
Deciding which approach fits best is part of the first sessions. Rachel works collaboratively to match methods to each person’s goals, comfort, and daily routines rather than pushing one technique. That means goals, pace, and tools are chosen together and adjusted over time.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for in-depth work and skill demonstrations. Phone sessions can be a lighter check-in and require less bandwidth. Live chat or messaging can fit brief updates, coaching-style support, or times when typing feels easier. These options offer flexibility so people can fit therapy into busy family and work lives.
