How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online sessions
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting. It helps people feel heard and clarifies what they want from counseling, which is useful when sorting out anger triggers and relationship strains.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at patterns of thought and behavior. It offers practical exercises to change automatic reactions, calm the body, and rehearse different responses to frustrating situations.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches concrete skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and better interpersonal behavior. These skills are often taught in short, repeatable steps that work well in remote sessions.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Rachel will collaborate with clients to choose which methods suit their goals, needs, and preferences. She revisits the plan as progress is made and adjusts techniques to be more useful in daily life.

Therapists often use video or phone sessions for skill practice, worksheets, and role plays, but please verify the specific options offered before you schedule.
