About Rachel
Rachel Young is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 14 years of experience. She supports people facing stress, anxiety, depression, ADHD, grief, trauma, and relationship challenges. Rachel aims to make conversations straightforward and practical so parents and individuals can find helpful next steps quickly.
Her background includes work in hospitals, schools, and community mental health settings. That variety means she has seen many different life challenges and how they affect day-to-day life.
Background and approach
She draws on real-world strategies to make therapy feel useful and manageable. Rachel uses client-centered and solution-focused approaches in session. That means she listens first, then helps clients set short-term goals and build small, achievable changes.
She also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help people notice unhelpful thinking and shift behaviors. Mindfulness and attachment-based ideas inform her work when clients need help with stress regulation or relationships. Sessions focus on practical skills, clearer communication, and steady progress rather than lengthy theory.
Rachel customizes a plan for each person based on their goals and situation. She is experienced working with adolescents and young adults as well as people dealing with blended family issues, divorce, mood disorders, and self-harm concerns. Rachel aims to be respectful and compassionate, and to create a space where people can talk without feeling judged.
Approaches that translate to online therapy
Attachment-based work focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns. Online sessions can use this approach to look at communication habits and build more stable connections with others. Client-centered therapy emphasizes listening and the client’s own goals; in remote sessions the therapist follows the person’s lead and helps them name what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and actions and teaches practical exercises to change each part; CBT easily adapts to video or phone work for homework and skill practice.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Rachel will talk with clients about their goals and preferences, then suggest methods to try. Together they track what helps and adjust the plan over time so therapy stays relevant and targeted.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for deeper conversations and practicing new skills, while phone sessions can fit into a work break or require less bandwidth. Live chat and text messaging are helpful for brief check-ins, homework support, or people who prefer writing their thoughts. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and keep momentum between sessions.
