About Rachel
Rachel Williams is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) based in Utah. She brings three years of clinical experience to sessions and focuses on practical help for common struggles parents and individuals face. Rachel listens first and then helps people make small, steady changes that fit their daily life.
She works with stress, anxiety, depression, and the demands of parenting. Rachel also supports people dealing with trauma and abuse, addiction, grief, ADHD, bipolar concerns, and issues around intimacy and self-esteem.
Background and approach
Her additional focus areas include attachment issues, codependency, communication problems, and family of origin concerns. Her style is straightforward and conversational. Sessions center on the person in front of her - their goals, routines, and what is realistically possible between work, family, and other obligations.
Rachel tailors each session so tools and strategies can be practiced between meetings. She uses a mix of approaches depending on what the client needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior.
Attachment-Based work looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. Mindfulness can offer simple ways to manage stress day to day. Rachel values collaboration.
She helps set clear, achievable goals and checks progress each week. Parents who are juggling caregiving and other responsibilities often find this practical, goal-focused approach useful.

How therapeutic approaches translate online
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on relationship patterns formed early in life and how they show up now. Online sessions use conversation and real-life examples to identify these patterns and practice new ways of relating that can reduce worry and conflict.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. In video or phone sessions Rachel helps clients notice unhelpful thoughts, test them, and try small behavior changes between meetings to build momentum.
Mindfulness Therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce stress and increase moment-to-moment calm. These exercises can be guided during a call or reinforced with short text reminders and check-ins between sessions.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Rachel collaborates with each person to decide which methods match their needs, goals, and what feels doable. She adjusts plans as progress is made and as situations change.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to fit care into a busy life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues help. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can work when hands-on tasks are needed. Live chat and text messaging are useful for short check-ins, homework support, or when a quick touchpoint between appointments helps keep momentum going.
