How Rachel's Methods Work Online

Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people understand and shift strong emotions that affect their relationships and personal wellbeing. It focuses on identifying underlying feelings and practicing new emotional responses to improve connection and self-understanding.

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental space where the therapist follows the client's lead. This approach is useful when someone needs to feel heard, build self-trust, and explore personal values at their own pace.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Rachel will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they decide whether an emotion-focused, client-centered, or CBT-oriented path - or a mix of these - best fits the situation.

Online sessions are offered by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to give practical flexibility. Video calls are suited to deeper conversations and exercises that use facial expression. Phone sessions can be easier when focus on voice works better or bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging can support short check-ins, skill practice, and quick reflections between longer sessions.
