About Rachel
LCSW in Texas with 3 years of clinical experience, Rachel Stankus helps people manage stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, career strain, and life changes. She also works with issues like compassion fatigue, self-esteem, bipolar disorder, panic attacks, social anxiety, and first responder stress. Sessions are conducted in English and are meant to address real, everyday problems.
Rachel focuses on practical conversation and problem-solving rather than jargon. She listens to what is happening now and helps people identify small, doable changes. Conversations cover coping strategies, managing strong emotions, and concrete steps for work or relationship challenges.
Her background includes work with addiction, trauma, abuse, career difficulties, and depression. That experience informs how she helps people respond to setbacks and regain some day-to-day stability. She frames work as a sequence of short goals rather than a single long plan.
Rachel uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to structure sessions and track progress. She adapts the format and pace to the person in front of her, arranging the conversation to fit immediate concerns and longer-term aims.
Practical logistics are handled through a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. Costs vary by location. To begin, a person completes a short matching questionnaire and schedules a first session through the See online therapy options button. Rachel does not work with international clients; sessions are offered in English.

How Rachel Uses Evidence-Based Techniques in Remote Sessions
Rachel works with evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical skills. One common approach is structured problem solving, which breaks larger issues into small steps and clear actions. This helps when stress, workplace problems, or life changes feel overwhelming. Another frequently used method is short-term coping skills training. That involves learning ways to manage panic attacks, reduce anxiety, and handle intense emotions in the moment. It’s practical and focused on symptoms people notice day to day. Finding the right approach is part of the work. Rachel treats choosing methods as a collaborative process. She and the client review needs, goals, and preferences to decide which techniques to try and how to pace sessions. Confirm the therapist's current session formats before booking, since the original profile does not specify them. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, allow check-ins during a lunch break, or avoid travel time. Different formats also let people choose quieter, shorter, or camera-off check-ins when those options fit their day better.Sheet 3
