Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life
Rachael uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people manage symptoms and make daily changes.

This method helps with worry, self-criticism, and motivation problems.Another practical approach emphasizes building routine skills and coping strategies. Sessions include simple tools for managing cravings, regulating emotions, and coping with stress that can be practiced between meetings. This approach is useful for addictions, postpartum mood shifts, and seasonal low energy.
Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to clarify goals, try techniques, and adjust the plan based on what helps. You and the therapist decide together which tools fit your situation and preferences.
