Practical, Personalized Online Therapy Approaches

Rachel Cohen, LCSW, draws from several evidence-informed approaches to help clients make progress in ways that feel manageable and relevant to everyday life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the connection between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, helping clients notice unhelpful patterns and practice new skills that support steadier mood and healthier coping. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) adds practical tools for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and communication, which can be especially helpful when feelings feel intense or hard to manage. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a warm, supportive relationship and a pace guided by the client, creating space to clarify goals and strengthen self-trust.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Rachel works collaboratively with clients to understand what they are facing, what has helped before, and what they want to be different, then tailors sessions to fit their needs, goals, and preferences over time.

Online therapy also offers flexibility. Clients can meet with her through video calls or phone sessions, or choose live chat or text-based messaging when that feels more accessible. These options can make it easier to stay consistent, fit therapy into a busy schedule, and get support during life transitions.
