About Rachel
Rachel Roberts is an LPC with ten years of clinical experience based in Texas. She focuses on stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship and family concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy issues, self-esteem, depression, and coping with life changes. Rachel also lists work with LGBT concerns and compassion fatigue among her primary areas.
She has worked in intensive outpatient DBT programs, a medication-assisted treatment clinic, a university counseling center, and both outpatient and residential programs for adolescents. Those settings gave her experience with substance use, mood disorders, and personality-related concerns. Rachel names attachment, abandonment, codependency, infidelity, and family-of-origin issues as common themes she addresses.
Her stated approaches include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Imago Relationship Therapy, mindfulness therapy, and Motivational Interviewing. She blends these methods to focus on practical skills, clearer communication, and identifying patterns that keep problems repeating. Sessions emphasize concrete strategies and steady progress rather than abstract theory.
Rachel notes training and experience with DBT interventions used for emotion regulation and distress tolerance, and with CBT techniques that look at thoughts, behaviors, and habits. She also draws on Motivational Interviewing to support change around substance use and other behaviors. These methods are applied with attention to culture and personal history.
People who prefer direct, skills-based work and who want to practice new ways of responding may find this approach useful. Rachel offers services in English and works from her Texas practice. To start, the site matching process is used to schedule an initial session.
CBT, DBT and relationship-focused methods for online work
Rachel uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and test different ways of thinking and acting. CBT sessions often include practical exercises, behavior experiments, and homework to try between meetings. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is used for emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills; it focuses on concrete tools to manage intense feelings and reduce reactive behavior. Imago Relationship Therapy looks at patterns between partners and teaches specific communication skills to improve understanding and repair conflict.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Rachel collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and situation. She will suggest specific skills and then check in to see what is working, adjusting the plan based on the client’s feedback and needs.
The biography indicates Rachel has provided both in-person and telehealth services, but current online session formats should be confirmed before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. It also makes practicing skills between meetings more convenient, since notes and exercises can be reviewed in daily life. Clients will discuss the most practical session length and rhythm during the first scheduling steps.
