Therapeutic approaches and online care with Rachel Garrett

Rachel uses client-centered therapy to create a respectful, nonjudgmental space where the client’s perspective guides sessions and personal strengths are brought forward. This approach supports people facing general life stressors and those seeking a collaborative, empathetic relationship with their therapist.

She also applies cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), a structured method that helps identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT is commonly used to address anxiety, depression, and patterns that interfere with daily functioning. In addition, dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) offers practical skills in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness for those who struggle with intense emotions or relationship challenges.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy, and Rachel works collaboratively with each client to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts strategies over time as goals evolve.

Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and maintain continuity during life changes. These formats provide flexibility in how and when people connect with licensed professionals and can support ongoing progress from different locations.
