About Rachel

Rachel Jones is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Missouri with 13 years of direct therapy experience. She holds a master’s degree in Educational, School and Counseling Psychology from the University of Missouri-Columbia and a bachelor’s degree in Sociology with a minor in Black Studies. Rachel works with adults facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, depression, compassion fatigue, addictions, relationship and family challenges, parenting concerns, anger, self-esteem issues, career questions, coaching needs, and ADHD.

She has worked across community mental health, career counseling, substance use treatment, and domestic and family violence settings. That variety shaped a practical clinical approach aimed at clear steps people can use between sessions. Rachel draws on client-centered methods and evidence-informed techniques to help people change unhelpful patterns and manage difficult feelings.

Her work often focuses on problems that build up over time - resentment, ongoing stress at work, or cycles of reacting rather than responding. Sessions generally involve talking through recent moments that felt hard, noticing patterns, and trying simple tools to interrupt those patterns. Rachel also uses mindfulness and motivational strategies to help people stay focused on goals.

She pays attention to cultural background and the impact of trauma when it’s part of the story. She also supports practical issues like caregiver stress, blended family dynamics, adoption and foster care concerns, and first responder challenges. Rachel keeps clinic hours in the evenings on Central Standard Time to fit people’s schedules.

Sessions are conducted in English. Prospective clients should confirm current session options before booking.

How sessions work

How her approaches translate to online work

Rachel uses Client-Centered Therapy to keep sessions focused on the person’s priorities and experiences. That approach means the therapist listens for what matters most and follows the client’s lead when planning next steps.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. CBT offers concrete exercises for anger management, stress reduction, and breaking reactive habits. Mindfulness Therapy appears in sessions as brief attention practices and grounding techniques to reduce reactivity and support clearer choices.

Finding the right mix of methods is collaborative. Rachel will work with clients to identify which approaches feel useful and adjust strategies based on goals and preferences. She checks in about what’s working and what needs changing as part of the process.

Session format details should be confirmed before booking. When you arrange care, ask which session options are offered and how they fit your routine. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into evenings, shorten travel time, and allow for different check-in styles such as shorter focused sessions or longer exploratory ones.
