Rachael Hudson, LPC

Rachael Hudson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in South Carolina with ten years of clinical experience. She sees adults for common struggles such as stress, anxiety, depression, anger, and relationship problems. Rachael also works with people grappling with parenting stress, addictions, grief, career changes, and issues around intimacy and self-esteem.

Her practice uses a straightforward, interactive style. She asks about the current concern and what a person has already tried. Then she and the client brainstorm practical steps to try next. Rachael pays attention to patterns from the past that affect today’s problems and focuses on actions that move people toward their goals.

Rachael often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and solution-focused ideas to shape sessions, and she adapts her approach depending on the issue. She tracks plans and progress in each meeting so clients know what’s changing and what still needs work. She will also draw on attachment-based and emotionally focused ideas when relationships are central to the problem.

She notes experience with a wide range of concerns, including trauma and abuse, bipolar mood issues, chronic illness and pain, caregiver stress, codependency, impulsivity, and compassion fatigue. Rachael also mentions work related to loneliness, control issues, and life purpose.

When a specific addiction concern falls outside her scope she will recommend a clinician more suited to that issue. To begin, people follow the site steps to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
