About Rachael

Rachael Fowler is a licensed professional counselor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and parenting challenges. She offers straightforward support for coping with life changes, relationship concerns, grief, addiction issues, self-esteem struggles, and compassion fatigue. Rachael works with people who want practical tools and clearer communication skills to handle everyday pressures.

She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, and client-centered techniques to guide conversations. Sessions focus on identifying patterns that get in the way and building small, manageable habits that reduce distress.

Background and approach

Rachael uses plain language and concrete steps rather than heavy theory. Her style is collaborative and warm. She listens first, and then helps clients set short-term goals they can try between sessions.

Motivational Interviewing and elements of narrative and existential work appear when a client needs clarity about values or life direction. Rachael holds the Licensed Professional Counselor credential, LPC, and is licensed in South Carolina (SC LPC 9285) and Georgia (GA LPC LPC011709). She brings seven years of clinical experience to her practice and adapts methods to each persons needs.

People who choose her often want a practical plan and a supportive therapist who explains things clearly. She encourages steady progress through simple changes and better communication. The focus is on usable strategies that fit real life.

Online approaches that fit busy family lives

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice what matters to them and take small steps toward those values even when feelings are uncomfortable. It is useful for stress, anxiety, grief, and times of life change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and changing the actions that follow. It gives concrete strategies for mood, anxiety, and behavioral patterns. Client-Centered Therapy centers the conversation on the persons experience, offering empathic listening and gentle guidance to build self-understanding and confidence.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Rachael will collaborate with each person to decide which methods feel most helpful based on goals and preferences. She adjusts techniques as progress unfolds so the plan fits real life and family demands.

Online sessions make it easier to get consistent help. Video calls let a therapist and client talk face to face from home. Phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging add flexibility for busy schedules or short check-ins. These options help people stay on track while balancing parenting, work, and other commitments.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
