More about Rachel
- 15 years' experience
- Female
- LCSW
I am licensed clinical social worker in Maine with 20 years of experience in schools, medical clinics and community settings. I mostly work with adolescents and adults in individually or in couples. I have extensive experience supporting folks with trauma, depression, anxiety and identity issues. The therapy modalities I work with are lots of acronyms which sound like alphabet soup; I am happy to explain more if you are interested in those details.
My style is supportive, direct and non-judgmental. I enjoy working together in a partnership in which you determine the topic, approach and type of support you want. I am happy to help you attain your goals for therapy, whether you are seeking strategies to manage your stress, learn ways to regulate your emotions, or heal your wounds.
If you think we might work well together, let's meet and see how it goes. In the meantime, take good care.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
