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 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.
