About Rachel
Rachel Jones is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) and Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Missouri with 20 years of experience. She works with stress, anxiety, grief, self-esteem issues, career concerns, relationship struggles, sleep problems, and life transitions including social anxiety and phobia.
Rachel focuses on practical steps people can use between sessions. She uses straightforward therapy methods such as cognitive-behavioral techniques, mindfulness practices, and solution-focused strategies to address problem thinking, overwhelming emotions, and day-to-day coping. Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented, with space to practice new skills.
Her background includes work with urban youth on substance abuse, behavior modification with young people in Hawaii, and programs helping displaced workers rebuild workplace skills. She later moved into private practice where she has supported adults through grief, anxiety, and major life changes. That range informs how she matches strategies to different situations.
Rachel is clear about scope of practice. She does not work with trauma because her licenses limit that area of practice. She uses this boundary so clients get care that fits their needs. If trauma is a concern, she asks people to seek a provider who lists that work in their scope.
Outside of clinical work she enjoys nature walks, snorkeling, music, and time with family and her cats. That personal side shapes a relaxed, human approach aimed at steady, manageable steps toward clearer thinking and practical coping.
How therapeutic approaches are used in online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to what matters most to the person, allowing goals and pacing to come from the client. It helps when someone needs acceptance and clarity to sort out feelings and priorities.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts affect feelings and actions and teaches practical tools to shift unhelpful thinking patterns. It is often used for anxiety, panic symptoms, phobias, and everyday stress because it includes specific exercises and homework.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist works together with the client to pick methods that fit their goals, needs, and preferences. That collaboration can mean combining short-term problem-solving with skills practice or slowing down to focus on processing life changes.
Confirm current session options before booking so you know which formats are offered. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow brief check-ins when a short session will help. Some formats may also require less bandwidth or be easier without a camera, which can help people get started when speaking in new settings feels difficult.
