About Rachel
Rachel Roger is a licensed clinical social worker in New York with six years of practice experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, relationship struggles, and concerns around eating and body image. Rachel emphasizes each person’s strengths and helps them take practical steps toward change.
She begins by listening to the story you bring and identifying what matters most to you. Sessions tend to be practical and goal-oriented, with room to process feelings and build skills. Rachel uses clear tools to reduce overwhelming thoughts and improve everyday coping.
Her work draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to spot unhelpful thought patterns and on dialectical behavior strategies to build steady emotion regulation. Those approaches are used to address issues like trauma, grief, codependency, and difficulties with intimacy and communication.
Rachel also supports people facing life changes such as caregiving stress, cancer-related concerns, or separation. She helps clients break big problems into manageable steps and practice new ways of responding. The focus is on small, achievable changes that add up over time.
People who come to Rachel can expect a straightforward, respectful approach. She invites collaboration about goals and methods and adjusts the plan as needs shift. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions based on availability.
How Rachel Uses CBT and DBT in Online Work
Rachel uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. CBT sessions often include clear, step-by-step exercises to test beliefs and develop healthier routines, which can help with anxiety, depression, and eating concerns.She also draws on dialectical behavior therapy skills to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication. DBT techniques are useful for managing intense feelings, improving relationships, and reducing reactive responses to stress.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Rachel will talk with each person about goals, test different strategies, and adjust the plan based on what helps. This collaborative process means therapy is tailored to needs and preferences rather than fixed from the start.
Please confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not specified in the biography. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let someone choose a quieter time of day or avoid being on camera when that helps them stay focused during a session.
