About Rachel
Rachel Hodgdon is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas with five years of clinical experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, parenting questions, depression, and coping with life changes. Rachel speaks English and accepts international clients.
Her sessions are practical and focused on noticing patterns that keep problems going. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based approaches, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy when those methods fit a person's goals.
Rachel helps people break things down into small, manageable steps. She talks through coping skills, simple behavior changes, and ways to respond differently to strong feelings. Sessions often involve experimenting with new habits between meetings and reviewing what worked.
She pays attention to how relationships and past experiences affect current struggles. That can mean looking at attachment-related patterns or skills for handling intense emotions. Rachel aims to make sessions concrete - noticing what is happening now and trying clearer responses.
Practical matters like scheduling and a first meeting are handled through the platform process. Clients start by completing a short questionnaire and booking an initial session. Rachel will work with each person to decide which approaches and next steps make sense for their situation.
How Rachel applies CBT, ACT, and attachment ideas online
This therapist often blends Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy with attachment-focused work. CBT is about spotting thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and testing small behavior changes. It can help with anxiety, panic, and mood work. ACT focuses on noticing inner experiences and choosing actions that align with personal values; it is useful for stress, avoidance, and living with difficult feelings. Attachment-Based work looks at how early and current relationship patterns affect responses to stress and close connections.Deciding which of these approaches to use is a collaborative process. Rachel will work with each person to match methods to their goals and preferences. She reviews what helps and adjusts the plan so sessions stay practical and focused on clear steps.
The original profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a routine, cut travel time, support shorter check-ins during a busy day, or avoid being on camera when that feels better. Licensed professionals can use these flexible features to keep sessions focused on skills practice and real-life experiments rather than lengthy theory.
