More about Rachel
- 10 years' experience
- Female
- LCSW
I am a clinical social worker licensed in Florida with 10 years of experience working as a counselor. Over the years, I have worked with both children and adult clients with a wide range of emotional and behavioral issues including depression, anxiety, ADHD, anger management issues, relationship issues, and family conflict. I have also worked with individuals who have experienced trauma and abuse.
My therapy style is warm, sensitive, and compassionate, and I believe all individuals are to be treated as equals. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, solution-focused, and psychodynamic therapy. I will tailor our sessions and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.
It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards change. If you are ready to take that step, I am here to support and empower you.
I look forward to working with you!

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.
