More about Racheal

  • 9 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCSW

I am a clinical social worker (LCSW), licensed in the state of Nevada. I have been providing psychotherapy for the past six years and I have worked with a wide range of people. I have treated a multitude of diagnoses including depression, anxiety, self-esteem complications, anger management issues, and relationship conflicts. I have also worked with many individuals who have experienced loss, trauma, and addiction.

My approach to therapy is client centered. This means I meet you where you are at, and I use a variety of interventions, depending on your needs, to help you identify your goals. I then work collaboratively with you to help you reach those goals. Some of the interventions I use are Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), and Motivational Interviewing (MI).

My purpose, as a therapist, is to provide you with a safe haven where you can comfortably share your experiences. I make sure to always treat my clients with consistent respect and compassion. I will actively listen to you, help you process difficult emotions, and work with you in the process of achieving desired outcomes.

I look forward to working with you.

About online counseling

Affordable.

Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

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.

Rachael Adelekan, I’m trying to identify myself again after my husbands death. I want to have a trusted therapist that will advise, challenge and sympathize with my new plight. Rachael is all of that! I feel comfortable sharing who I am, candidly being able to speak of my faith. Rachael provides feedback that helps me to re-engage/ramp-up in my personal and professional life. I look forward to our sessions and walk away more fulfilled and empowered.

Racheal is the most caring, compassionate, invested, and understanding counselor I have EVER had. Her diverse background and empathetic nature is everything I could hope for and I appreciate every session with her. If I didn’t have our weekly check-ins my weeks would go by in a blur. She makes it so I have concrete goals, checkpoints, plans and never judges me for not being able to fulfill them all. We all need a life coach every now and then. I have the choice of doing the same day, same time every week. I can change it around if something comes up. I can skip a week if I need to. If I need to do a short session or the full 50 or so minutes she is game for whichever I need. Whether I need to vent, go through the events of my week, or work on my future, Racheal is incredibly flexible and a wonderful person to get to talk to. I can’t speak highly enough of her. She is part of my positive support system and I am SO grateful she is on BetterHelp. 10/10 would recommend.

Racheal is an angel. I can tell that she really does care. She js intelligent, as well as understanding-like, Really understanding! One of the kindest and most genuine people I've had the pleasure of working with and I can't wait to continue working with her, because she's helping me learn how to help myself. This isn't one of those things where you just kind of go in and then talk and then feel better afterwards but it's all temporary- she actually helps you to get better. Don't let your fear stop you from getting better because she'll be right by your side through it all and help you see all the other tools that you have that maybe you didn't even realize! If you want to live a life with more quality, be more productive and efficient with everything in your life, have less stress, do this. I feel like I got matched with the best therapist in the world, and I am terrified to get better, but I'm confident that I will. I know I'll be happy and healthy and be a better person soon. I Highly recommend Ms. Adelekan / Racheal! #real life angel
