About Rachel
Rachel Walters is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with LCSW and CSW credentials, licensed in New York and Georgia. She has six years of clinical experience helping people who are juggling big life changes, stress, depression, anxiety, and anger. Rachel works with adults who want practical ways to manage strong emotions and everyday pressures.
Her work often focuses on young adult concerns and the problems that come from family of origin issues, communication breakdowns, and life purpose questions. She also supports people dealing with trauma and post-traumatic stress, sleep disruption, bipolar mood concerns, ADHD, and compassion fatigue. Rachel pays attention to systemic stressors like housing instability and financial strain when those are part of the picture.
In sessions she uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness techniques, and Motivational Interviewing. Those approaches are used to help people notice unhelpful patterns, practice different responses, and set practical goals for behavior change. Rachel’s style is interactive and focused on real-world steps rather than abstract theory.
She brings experience from teaching and supervising in social work into her clinical practice. That background informs how she structures sessions and how she supports people learning new skills. Rachel aims to help people build more stable routines and better ways to handle intense feelings.
If someone is dealing with relationship strain, anger that shows up at work, or the fallout from trauma, Rachel works with them to clarify goals and try skill-based strategies. To start, readers should confirm session options and follow the listed intake steps on the site.
How sessions work
How Rachel applies therapy methods in online sessions
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is about noticing thoughts and feelings without getting controlled by them, then choosing actions that reflect personal values. It can help with anger responses that feel automatic and with setting clearer life goals. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and uses practical exercises to test and change unhelpful thinking patterns. CBT can be useful for anger at work or repeated interpersonal conflicts. Client-Centered Therapy centers the person’s own goals and uses responsive listening to help them discover what feels workable; it supports building new ways of relating and communicating.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Rachel will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and goals. That means trying practical exercises, reviewing what helps, and adjusting the plan together rather than assuming one method will be best from the start.
Session formats are not specified in the provided biography, so confirm current online session options before booking. Online work can make therapy easier to fit into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Rachel’s clinical approaches lend themselves to homework exercises, behavioral experiments, and mindfulness practices that translate well to remote sessions, helping people apply new skills between meetings.
