About Rachel
Rachel Palmore is an Alabama licensed professional counselor (LPC) with 20 years of experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, grief, self-esteem struggles, relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting challenges, and work-related issues.
She uses straightforward, goal-focused work in sessions. That often looks like noticing unhelpful thoughts and testing new ways of responding. Rachel also draws on mindfulness skills and emotion-focused approaches when feelings need clearer attention.
Clients can expect practical steps they can try between sessions. That might include short behavioral experiments, brief mindfulness practices, or guided conversations to name and shift strong emotions. Rachel emphasizes clear goals and small changes that add up over time.
Her background includes two decades of varied clinical work across community settings. That experience informs a flexible approach when people face trauma, adoption or foster care questions, multicultural concerns, or discrimination-related stress.
Rachel also supports people with ADHD, bipolar mood concerns, seasonal affective disorder, compassion fatigue, and career transitions. She combines motivational interviewing techniques when people are weighing change or looking for direction.
Sessions are presented in a direct, conversational way. The focus is on useful skills, realistic planning, and tracking progress so people can see what works and adjust as needed.
How Rachel uses structured approaches in online sessions
Rachel commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts, test those thoughts against reality, and try new behaviors. CBT is practical work focused on specific problems such as anxiety, low mood, or unhelpful routines.She also draws on Client-Centered Therapy, which emphasizes listening and reflecting so people can clarify their own goals and values. When emotions are intense, Rachel uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy techniques to help name and process feelings so relationships and intimacy concerns become easier to address.
Finding the right blend of methods is part of the work. She will collaborate with each person to choose approaches that match their goals, preferences, and day-to-day demands. That means checking how exercises fit into life and adjusting methods when something isn’t working.
Confirm the available session formats before booking, since the profile does not list specific delivery options. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counseling into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and reduce travel time. Talk with Rachel about how sessions can be arranged to suit work, caregiving, or other daily commitments.
