About Rachelle

Rachelle Eldred is a licensed counselor practicing in Montana. She holds LPCC and LCPC credentials and brings 15 years of clinical experience to her work. She focuses on practical help for people dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma, depression, and related concerns.

Her style is direct and respectful. She aims to listen first and then shape sessions around what each person needs. Rachelle uses clear language and simple tools so people can use what they learn outside of sessions.

Background and approach

In the therapy room she draws on approaches like attachment work, cognitive behavioral techniques, and EMDR for trauma when appropriate. That means she pays attention to how relationships affect feelings, helps people notice and change unhelpful thoughts, and uses proven methods for processing difficult memories.

She also works with issues such as parenting stress, grief, addictions, sleep and eating problems, ADHD, career concerns, and compassion fatigue. Rachelle adapts her plan to fit the person in front of her rather than following one fixed method. Her sessions are available through video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging.

People who choose her can expect a collaborative process that combines practical skills with space to talk through painful and confusing experiences.

How Rachelle’s Approaches Work Online

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on patterns in relationships and how those patterns shape feelings and behavior. Online sessions can explore those patterns through conversation and exercises that help people notice and change long-standing interaction habits.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and test new ways of thinking and acting. In remote sessions, CBT often uses short practical exercises and homework that people can apply between meetings to see quick changes in daily life.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals and preferences and then recommend methods that fit those needs. This is a collaborative process rather than a one-size-fits-all prescription.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation from home, phone sessions remove the need for video, and live chat or text messaging can support short check-ins or ongoing skills practice. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to keep continuity when schedules or locations change.

Attachment-Based Therapy

Looks at how early bonds shaped what you expect from closeness, and how that plays out now with a partner, a parent, or your own children.

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.
