About Rachel
Rachel Richard is an LPCC (Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor) licensed in Kentucky and Ohio and practicing with 27 years of experience. She is based in Indiana and focuses on common struggles like stress, anxiety, depression, addiction, relationship concerns, parenting strain, and grief. Rachel also addresses issues such as eating and sleeping problems, ADHD, bipolar mood concerns, and intimacy-related difficulties.
Rachel uses approaches that help people talk through what's happening and take practical steps forward. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Emotionally-Focused Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy. Sessions are conversational and goal-focused, with attention to patterns that keep problems active.
She often helps people manage life changes and difficult memories from trauma or abuse. That work can include building skills to handle strong emotions, improving communication, and rebuilding routines after a major loss or separation. Rachel also offers support related to addiction and codependency, addressing both cravings and the relationships around substance use.
For parents and adults dealing with family and parenting concerns, she addresses caregiving stress, blended family adjustments, and communication problems. She talks through expectations, boundaries, and practical steps parents can try between sessions.
Rachel asks new clients to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Costs vary with location and use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. Sessions are offered in English and international clients are not currently accepted.
How sessions work
How her therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and commit to actions that match their values. It can be useful for anxiety, low mood, and getting unstuck during life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and practicing different ways of responding. CBT often helps with anxiety, depression, sleep, and eating-related issues. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches specific skills for managing intense emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness, which can help with anger, relationship conflict, and addiction-related distress.Finding the best approach is part of therapy. The therapist will work with the client to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That collaboration may mean combining brief skill work one week with deeper emotion-focused conversation another week.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into daily life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. It can also let someone access a licensed professional from their own region while keeping appointments practical around work, caregiving, or other commitments.
