About Rachel
Dr. Rachel Radin is a California psychologist with eight years of experience. She works with adults on anxiety, mood, and eating concerns, including stress-related and binge eating. She also addresses relationships, self-esteem, sleep, grief, addiction, and related concerns such as ADHD and bipolar mood issues.
She trained at the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences, earning a Master’s and PhD in Clinical and Medical Psychology. Her pre-doctoral internship in pediatric psychology was at Mount Washington Pediatric Hospital, and she completed a postdoctoral fellowship at the University of California, San Francisco. Her background includes work on health-related behavior change such as diabetes and obesity management.
In sessions she draws on practical methods from cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness. She has used acceptance and commitment therapy and motivational interviewing in brief interventions focused on stress-related eating. Dialectical behavior therapy skills also inform her approach when emotion regulation is a goal.
Expect sessions that focus on concrete skills and patterns in daily life. She helps people notice habits that fuel distress and then practices alternatives that fit real routines. For eating concerns she uses targeted strategies to reduce stress-driven eating and to build more stable habits.
Her work combines behavioral tools with a client-centered stance. That means attention to what matters to each person and experiments to test what helps. Dr. Radin practices in California and conducts work in English.
How her approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful patterns and choose actions that match their values; it is often useful for anxiety and life-direction concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on specific thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and teaches concrete skills to shift them, which can help with anxiety, mood, and eating issues. Mindfulness therapy trains simple attention and awareness practices that can reduce stress-driven responses and support changes in eating and emotion regulation.Finding the right mix of methods is part of the early work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to identify goals, try approaches, and adjust based on what feels most useful. That process is practical and iterative rather than predetermined.
Confirm the session formats before booking because the profile does not list specific options. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into work and family schedules, shorten travel time, or use a brief check-in when needed. They also allow practice of skills in real-life settings and make it simpler to bring routine habits into session work. Licensed professionals can often adapt exercises and between-session tasks to the online setting to keep progress moving forward.
