About Rachel

Rachel Garry is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas with five years of clinical experience. She has worked in a family counseling center, an outpatient hospital, and a community college. Rachel focuses on practical help for common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, sleep problems, addiction, career and educational decisions, and family issues.

Her style is warm and collaborative. She centers the conversation on each person's needs and preferences.

Background and approach

Sessions aim to identify small, useful steps that fit into real life rather than one-size-fits-all solutions. Rachel commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, and mindfulness tools. She explains techniques simply and helps clients try them in ways that make sense for their daily routines.

She encourages clients to give feedback so the work stays relevant. In sessions she helps people manage emotions, rethink unhelpful patterns, and set realistic goals. She also addresses parenting stress, relationship strain, grief, coping with life changes, anger, and mood concerns.

Her work includes attention to control issues, family problems, forgiveness, life purpose, and women’s issues. Rachel offers multiple online formats including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging. Prospective clients start by completing a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions based on availability.

Approaches that fit online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to each person’s needs. It helps when someone wants a supportive, respectful space to talk and decide what change looks like for them. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors connect and teaches concrete skills to shift unhelpful patterns; it is useful for anxiety, depression, sleep issues, and stress.

Rachel will work collaboratively to find the right mix of approaches. She discusses goals and preferences, then suggests techniques to try. If something isn’t helping, she adjusts the plan so the work stays practical and focused on what the client wants to achieve.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy family and work schedules. People can review tools, practice skills between meetings, and check in in ways that suit their routine. Licensed professionals can deliver the same structured techniques used in person while keeping sessions easier to attend from home or on the go.

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.

Mindfulness Therapy

Attention training: noticing thoughts and physical feelings as they arrive without being carried off by them. Much of it is practice you do yourself, so guidance over video or audio works much as it would in person.
