About Rachel

LCSW Rachel Walters has six years of clinical experience and holds LCSW credentials in New York and Georgia. She focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, self-esteem, and life changes. Her work also includes attention to LGBT concerns, relationship and family-related issues, sleep problems, anger, bipolar disorder, compassion fatigue, and ADHD. Rachel offers therapy informed by Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Client-Centered methods, Mindfulness, and Motivational Interviewing.

Rachel describes her style as interactive and trauma-informed. She centers practical coping skills alongside conversations about past hurts. Sessions look at immediate needs such as crisis planning or stabilizing daily routines. They also address longer-term goals like rebuilding trust after trauma or clarifying life purpose.

She has experience supporting young adults, marginalized youth, and young parenting women through housing instability, financial stress, and parenting challenges. Her background includes years of teaching and supervising in social work, which she brings into clinical practice as a focus on clear information and skill-building.

In sessions she mixes short, actionable strategies with reflective work. That might mean looking at thought patterns with CBT, practicing present-moment awareness with mindfulness techniques, or clarifying values using ACT. Motivational Interviewing helps when someone feels stuck and wants to move toward change.

Rachel works in Georgia and conducts sessions in English. To start, readers should confirm current session options before booking and follow the site flow to complete the matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How Rachel’s approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people clarify what matters to them and take small, values-based steps. In online sessions this can look like setting short goals between meetings and tracking what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing different behaviors. Remotely, that often means reviewing real-life situations from the week and practicing alternative responses together.

Choosing the right approach is part of the collaboration. The therapist and client will discuss symptoms, goals, and preferences, then try methods that fit. Sessions can adjust over time as needs change, with room for skill practice and regular check-ins about progress.

The practical benefits of remote work include fitting sessions into a busy week and using time efficiently. Confirm the current session options before booking to know which formats are offered. Many people find it easier to attend regular appointments without long travel, and shorter check-ins can be arranged when schedules are tight. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and homework to the online setting so work between sessions remains useful.
