About Rachel

Rachel Young is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) with 14 years of clinical experience in settings that include hospitals, schools, and community mental health programs.

Background and approach

She focuses on helping clients navigate stress, anxiety, mood disorders, trauma and abuse, relationship and family concerns, grief, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and related challenges such as blended family issues, divorce and separation, and social anxiety. Her background includes work with people across the lifespan and she has a particular history of supporting adolescents through personal life transitions.

Her style blends solution-focused and client-centered techniques to empower people to manage daily stressors and pursue their goals. Rachel emphasizes respect and compassion, building a comfortable environment that encourages honest discussion.

She integrates approaches including Internal Family Systems, attachment-based ideas, cognitive behavioral tools, and mindfulness strategies to tailor treatment plans to each person’s needs. Sessions are adapted to the client’s priorities and pace, with an emphasis on practicality and achievable steps toward improved coping and self-understanding.

Integrating Approaches for Online Care

Rachel uses Internal Family Systems to help clients explore different internal parts and understand how those parts influence feelings and behavior; this approach can be useful for addressing trauma responses, self-criticism, and complex emotional patterns. She also draws on attachment-based ideas to examine how early relational patterns shape current relationships and to foster more supported, connected ways of relating. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, offering practical tools for managing anxiety, depression, and stress.

Finding the right combination of approaches is treated as a collaborative process. The therapist works with clients to identify goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful in session, then adjusts methods and pacing as needed to suit each person’s situation.

Online therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to provide flexibility for varied schedules and comfort levels. These formats allow clients to access consistent support from licensed professionals without needing to travel, making it easier to maintain momentum between sessions and use therapeutic skills in day-to-day life.
