About Rachel
Rachel Roberts is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas with ten years of practice across varied clinical settings. She aims to make therapy a welcoming place where people can be honest and figure things out at their own pace. Rachel focuses on building a warm, culturally aware space rather than pushing quick fixes.
Her background includes work in intensive outpatient DBT programs, a medication-assisted treatment clinic, a university counseling center, and residential programs. Those experiences shaped her view that therapy needs to fit each person’s life and history. She draws on approaches such as Motivational Interviewing, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Imago Relationship Therapy, and Mindfulness Therapy.
In sessions she helps people untangle problems like anxiety, depression, addiction, grief, and relational difficulties. She also addresses issues tied to family of origin, attachment and codependency, and challenges such as postpartum depression and trauma-related symptoms. Rachel uses practical strategies alongside reflective work to help people shift patterns that feel stuck.
Her training includes comprehensive DBT work and exposure-based techniques related to trauma, paired with other evidence-informed methods. This mix lets her tailor tools to what each person needs and prefers. She speaks English and practices in Texas.
Rachel approaches therapy as a collaboration. She pays attention to culture, relationships, and personal history when planning goals. The focus is on small, realistic changes that add up to meaningful differences over time.

How Rachel’s Approaches Translate to Online Work
Rachel uses Motivational Interviewing to help people clarify their own reasons for change and build confidence in taking steps forward. This approach focuses on listening, asking useful questions, and supporting motivation rather than pushing advice.
She also draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. CBT provides practical strategies for managing anxiety, depression, and habits by testing thoughts and practicing new behaviors. Dialectical Behavior Therapy contributes skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improving relationships when intense feelings get in the way.
Finding the right mix of approaches is a team effort. Rachel works with each person to pick techniques that match their goals, needs, and preferences. She adjusts pace and tools over time so the work stays relevant and usable in daily life.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm current session options before booking because formats are not specified here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Some formats also make it simpler to use mindfulness exercises or skills practice between appointments. Licensed professionals can tailor the online process to help people apply skills where they live and work. -
